This thread reminds me of a particular pet peeve of mine.
I call it, "the victory lap fallacy".
It's basically where, any person who is successful in anything, attaches some sort of meaning or unusual reason for their victory after the fact. Usually a lie.
For example:
>I was able to become successful in business because of sheer spite and rage
Or
>I was able to become number one in this game because I thought of anime girls cheering me on
etc. etc.
It's really fucking annoying and I notice it everywhere.
They're high on the fumes of their success (as they should be, success is hard earned) and just say any bullshit.
Not that your guy was lying OP, I honestly believe it. Anyone autistic enough to watch gunbuster + join the army is a mega-mega gun autist. Who would think of such things in an active combat situation.
Anyways any other anons noticed this sort of thing?
