"I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you, but if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you." View Quote |

View Quote And this: Quoted: Sarcasm and cynicism View Quote But, Idk, when I'm being sarcastic, people think I'm for realz... Anywho, woman who worked with me once said, 'You see things that other people can't see' She was alluding to my skill to analyze crap I guess. Yea, I look at something and can point out shit other people can't. |
