How could you say it doesn't mean anything? They don't say these words for no reason at all. He meant that. He wanted you to wake up and be 'terrified like he is." This whole game is how can we get the dial to go past 11? How hard can I push these people to extract the maximum amount of value? Listen to them when they speak, they mean it.
