Well yeah if my opponent was threatening to slap me and then shoot themselves in the head right after, I wouldn’t be very afraid either.

Plot twist Jeff just turns off the production servers before leaving every Friday night.

I don’t care how complicated the system is: I’d probably get fired if this was one of my solutions
