Hey Bruce Banner! Hulking out is definitely your super-power, but ya gotta temper that a bit. Learn to bring on the chemical dump without the hangover and self-hate.
When my buddy starts getting expressive, hand-wavy and amplified, we know it's the situation and not him or anything else. He's gonna be legendary in like 5 minutes, talk too fast for human parsing, and lay down code or rescue a cat or macGuyver something awesome; then he's gonna get emo and regretful and think we judge him for it, as the chemical dump purges.
It's all good.
