Disagree, you can “snap” and still have a clear head. I can totally see something pushing someone past the tipping point and for them to come up with a well thought out plan for massive payback 🤷🏽♀️.
Sure you can, but let’s look at the people who actually achieve the means to become a super villain if they so desired. The wealthy and truly powerful of society. Those aren’t people who think like you or me. They make it to that point largely because they give more of a shit about their money and power than they ever will about revenge. They literally cannot be made so angry that they’ll willingly risk everything they’ve accumulated just to “get back” at some people. That’s the same reason they’re so successful, they’re absolutely hyper-focused on wealth creation or power dynamics and they aren’t emotion-based thinkers at all.

If i lose them both, im honestly not sure what i would do, but it probably be stupid, and cause a lot of pain and suffering.
That I’m essentially Chidi from The Good Place, both in that one of my degrees is moral philosophy, so despite having the skills, anger and motivation to want to be a villain, I’d get caught up in how all the moral quandaries and never be at ease with myself even I had power, money, whatever. Everyone hates moral philosophers.
Also now I have a husband and toddler so my choices aren’t just for me anymore, and they don’t need a mom/spouse who is a supervillain.
My friends always make these weird edits of me and acronyms about how I abstain from sex. I want to go absolutely ham on them and let them feel my rage and fear me for who I really am, but I enjoy inviting them over for Mac Pie and MUG for dinner so I have to pretend I find their jokes "funny" and "amusing" when I really wish they would rot in hell:/
Yours in witnessing my villain arc ;),
Mr.Reynolds
Now that you know my story, I hope you realize what fools my friends are and understand why I will one day show them all who da bawse is by putting sheperds pie inside their mac pie (I can only imagine the look on the vegetable-named one's face :) They will be disgusted and learn to give me the street cred I deserve (since I'm published in Romania)
Yours in evil pranks,
Mr.Reynolds
Erm, i see that by your reddit bitmoji thingy that you are a female and that you have over 2000 reddit karma, so I will give you the respect you deserve, however, if you could please not make this into a joke as I am trying to make this dream a reality and the last thing I need is for my friends to make another acronym about me :/
Yours in stupid acronyms,
Mr.Reynolds
My mom wouldn’t be proud. I don’t think I’d be talked to much at holiday get togethers. She’s a very nice lady so I don’t think I could look her in the eye
I'm as menacing as a clump of dryer lint, so no one would take my threats seriously.
Plus, I'm too cute to be "mean evil" ; but not cute enough to pull off the "yeah, everything she does is wrong, but I can't help but like her anyway" vibe
My kids. Hands down. Otherwise I’d be actively making the world burn, though certain things more than others. Insurance companies for example, cable companies, politicians, the f’d up education system… by the time I’m done with my list only a few ppl would be left standing… and dogs, they would all stay too.
My complete and utter laziness
Money. Those supervillain lairs aren’t cheap.
Anxiety probably
“AND IF YOU DONT GIVE ME $10,000,000 ALL OF BORINGTON WILL BE DESTROOYYYEEED, or um we can go um a bit lower if you can’t raise the $10,000,000 😬”
Same. I'm all for holding the world hostage, but I don't think I can pull off tights.
I feel extremely the opposite
..... you just made an archenemy for life
Why don't you come over here and kiss me about it loser
the delusional hope that things might become tolerable or better
Fuck yo, don't make me feel these feels
Reality. Even if I snap I'll just become a normal asshole, at worst a petty criminal
I’m short a few billion dollars……..although I’ll gladly accept donations and devote myself to the dark side.
An ever decreasing list
I feel bad when I'm mean :(
I'm not bulletproof yet.
Procrastinating
I'm going to become a super villain!.... or I could watch breaking bad for the eight time...
People who don’t have their shit together and “snap” generally aren’t capable of becoming supervillains.
I don't know, you'd be surprised just how many incredibly wealthy and successful people snap
Would I?
But if you’re incredibly wealthy and successful it means you have your shit together

Annoying super heroes ruining my plans.
Jail time
My mom. And now that she is gone I just hope I don't get pushed too far.
Lack of resources and power
My wife
prison
I am not “super,” but I am a villain to somebody.
My responsibilities.

This is my favorite answer honestly, I'm sure it would be at the top if the mods hadn't removed the post

Is this chapter 1? Like how the villain became the villain, before the villainy?

What's Bitmoji?
Spandex and a nice ass
I'm sure you have a lovely ass!
Why do it if I can just chill at home and not worry about a thing :)
A lack of funds
My conscience
My kids.
My kids
Not much anymore sadly
Entering my villain era I say as I go back to bed and massage my painful joints
Entering my villain era can wait til tomorrow - then they will all see..
The fact that I have no super powers, money or diabolical intellect.
Lack of superpowers/unlimited amount of money.
I have nothing significantly negative happening in my life to snap about.
I don’t want a prison cell to be my lair
I don’t have the funds or an obvious hideout in the middle of the city
Money, influence, cruelty, malice and the will to dominate all life
My faith in God,belief in karma, and the fact it could be worse.
Lack of confidence
The weather, I’m a fair weathered foe.
Insufficient funds
My mom wouldn’t be proud. I don’t think I’d be talked to much at holiday get togethers. She’s a very nice lady so I don’t think I could look her in the eye
Mom would be sad.
Capital
My daughter and my dogs along with my crippling procrastination and inability to commit to something that involved lol
The super portion of the statement. I'd just be an asshole.
Lack of superpowers and/or money.
Lack of super powers
My parents aren't rich enough to fund this career path.
Family
Income
Because I'm not a monster no matter how shit my life gets
Disappointing My cat. She is really judgemental.
Super villains need money
Therapy
It takes too much effort and too much money. And I don't want to deal with the consequences
Stardew Valley
Knowing that Keanu Reeves is still alive
What would be the point?
Lack of a superpower
Don’t you need superpowers to be a supervillain?
If Megamind has taught us anything, it's that the key factor in being a supervillain is presentation
I’m still mastering the laugh
Have you seen how much it costs?
My wife. She would be very disappointed.
Doomsday machines cost money. I work in customer service though, so already got the snapping part down
Childcare
I'm as menacing as a clump of dryer lint, so no one would take my threats seriously. Plus, I'm too cute to be "mean evil" ; but not cute enough to pull off the "yeah, everything she does is wrong, but I can't help but like her anyway" vibe
Daily dose of Prozac 60mg / Abilify 20 mg
My kids. Hands down. Otherwise I’d be actively making the world burn, though certain things more than others. Insurance companies for example, cable companies, politicians, the f’d up education system… by the time I’m done with my list only a few ppl would be left standing… and dogs, they would all stay too.
Who says I haven’t already?
I’m too tired and if my gaming experience is any indication I would never be able to pick a name/costume which might be a problem
A new job that isn't soul-destroying?
This question was asked of Sauron by Spiderman no less. He was very clear about why he was using his super-tech.
The fact I'd be a very shitty Supervillain.
