Sleeveless posted:the dude was a landowner and a small business owner who was more well off than like 95% of the people in this country who was just furious at the thought that he might have to get a job and live in an apartment like the rest of the proles, the fact that his years of impotent sputtering into a tape recorder about how he was going to rain vengeance on the planet because people wouldn't let him dump his turds and pee into an open ditch culminated in the only death being his own is something to be thankful for but does not in any way lessen what a stupid and evil man he was

Was a bit disappointing to learn he wasn't actually a victim, local business owner hosed over by the man, lashing out. And actually a fairly rich crazy who everyone had tried to work with. Loses its shine a little.

NorgLyle posted:I enjoyed it. The dude was like a real life version of Dale Gribble from King of the Hill so it was fun to get to hear his deranged ranting on the tapes followed by the director cutting to the guy he was talking about who said "I... don't remember ever really having a conversation with Marvin." I thought it that was weird because as soon as he started his rampage the cops knew exactly where he was going every time and got people out of the buildings. Strange that no one really remembered having these negative conversations but the whole town understood who his targets were. Maybe I missed the explanation for that.

Dear Watson posted:I thought it that was weird because as soon as he started his rampage the cops knew exactly where he was going every time and got people out of the buildings. It's clear that it's an incredibly tedious task to have a conversation with him because he's completely paranoid. Any incidental event or mild inconvenience is perceived as part of an ongoing campaign of attacks on his right to exist as a self-made man. He makes up self-centered narratives for why anything is happening--everyone is out to get him at all times and he will go so far as to misrepresent interactions with people and assign motives to their behaviors that boil down to "they're out to get me at all costs." Most of the town aside from his snowmobile buddies end up on a literal enemies list and there'd be no doubt where you stood with this guy. It's a small town, and small town society and politics are always at least a little ugly, but there's also a lot of weirdos involved too. From day one that it became an issue his neighbors were willing to pay him hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy out his loving shed in the middle of nowhere Colorado. Anyway, the guy was completely insane. It was mere luck that the entire town wasn't obliterated when he attacked the propane tanks. Even setting aside the part where he nearly caves in a building on a bunch of schoolchildren, that's well beyond a case of righteous vengeance even right there. Definitely a top-shelf welder though.

Xaris posted:this is pretty much all correct. in a way it's sort of the like anti-mcdonalds hot coffee lawsuit of internet heard-down-the-grapevine tale whose story blew up becoming a projection of an exculpatory narrative; whereas she was in the right and perceived wrong and hes in the wrong but perceived right because it makes for a funnier story.

Do you guys really think the multimillion dollar fast food lawsuit industry is doe-eyed to how people engage with the most famous and perhaps only case in their field people that will ever talk about or think of? Next you're going to tell me you think the altright thought to smear soybeans all on their own

Kind of wonderous how despite many archetypes of people jumping to sue at the drop of a hat, with many of them following through, her case ended up with national media attention and enduring cultural legacy. She looked down at her ruined and scalded lap to suggest that the coffee should not melt the cups and everyone fell in reverent silence, as though a Mexican child had suggested two kinds of taco for dinner.

Its because people found the concept of "lol she's suing because the coffee was too hot? Coffee's supposed to be hot!" amusing. i don't understand your weird mexican child allegory, probably better suited for a case involving taco bell

I don’t know this guys financial situation, but I know the personality type of the small town person who is mildly well off and then loses touch with reality pretty well. like, somebody has just enough wealth that they don’t need to get out of bed and go somewhere to work for someone else ever again, and they quietly become a weirdo loner and forget how to interact with others. like they don’t have “do whatever they want” money, they have “lie around in bed until noon and then go argue with local strangers over petty things they can’t control partly out of loneliness (without realizing that’s what it is) and when they don’t get their way it feels like their social needs aren’t being met so they blow situations up in their mind with themselves at the center” money in this guys case it lead to killdozer

Frankly you could tell some of the boys were a little pleased that they had an excuse to break out the fun stuff (flashbangs! 50 cals! riding a bulldozer around like a bronco!) I wonder when the last time before this was that a cop in Granby had to fire a gun in the line of duty.
