Let's imagine secret agent Joe/James was a buff 25 year old man in his prime, and could fight. Would it make the act of him threatening people online any less pathetic? Obviously not. How sad and insecure does a person have to be to threaten online strangers over hurt feelings?

James is literally a senior citizen and he does this. He has come to the sub with his fist clenched many a time. If he played video games he would be trying to argue with and threaten the shit-talking 13 year olds on some multiplayer FPS, losing his fucking mind while they all die laughing at him.

The lies - the delusions - there's a plethora of hate-able things about Joe but his staggering lack of humility and profound insecurity is bewilderment.
