[[Two men face each other, conversing.]]
First Man: Sometimes I'm shocked to realize how many options I have.
Second Man: Oh?
[[First Man shakes his fist.]]
First Man: Like, at any moment in any conversation, I could just punch the person I was talking to, and all these potentially life-changing events would unfold.
[[The two men converse.]]
First Man: It's only my mental rules that stop me from punching you, or stripping naked, or getting on a plane to Fiji. Sure, rules have reasons. But shouldn't you exercise that freedom at least once before you did?
<<WHAM>>
[[First man is knocked down on the ground, dazed and bruised.]]
First Man: Okay, I should have seen that coming.
Second Man: But you
couldn't
! That's the beauty!
{{Title text: Sometimes I'm terrified to realize how many options other people have.}}
