Not to be a heartless dick, but maybe:
Anyone at all familiar with this guy, or his type - the suicidally impulsive 'Live Fast, Die Huge!' mentality, right? Why - every goddamn time - the surprise and/or shock? How is anyone even caught off guard? This was always the plan.
And same as always, when his/their long-promised 'Told ya!' finally arrives, nothing but Ts & Ps, well wishes, and hopeful ER updates because everyone has fucking amnesia all a sudden. At least a "Nailed it, bro" or "Hey, just like you said!" would let other savage 5%ers know you were paying attention.
