So, I kept seeing stuff pop up online about Sean Strickland and this Sneako guy. Everywhere. You can’t really avoid it if you spend any time scrolling.
Honestly, watching them interact, especially that sparring thing and the interviews afterwards, it’s just raw, isn’t it? Strickland just lets loose, says whatever comes into his head. No filter. And Sneako, well, he’s got his own thing going on, trying to match that energy or provoke it, I guess.
It got me thinking, not really about them specifically, but just how unpredictable people can be, face-to-face or even through a screen. It reminded me of this situation a few years back. I was just trying to get some gardening done, minding my own business.
That Neighbor Thing
This guy down the street, completely out of the blue, starts yelling at me over the fence. Something about leaves blowing into his yard. Not just talking, like, really yelling. Red in the face. I was just standing there, holding a trowel, completely baffled.
- I tried talking calmly at first.
- Asked what the actual problem was.
- He just got louder, more aggressive.
It was wild. Like a switch flipped. One minute it’s a quiet Saturday morning, the next minute you’ve got this guy practically vibrating with anger over a few leaves. There was no reasoning with him. He wasn’t interested in sorting it out, just wanted to vent, I suppose. Reminded me you just never know what’s going on inside someone’s head or what might set them off.
I eventually just had to walk away, back inside. What else can you do? You can’t force someone to be reasonable. Stood there by the window for a bit, just thinking, “What the hell was that?” It kind of ruined the whole day, that weird, sudden confrontation.
So yeah, seeing clips of Strickland just going off, or the weird back-and-forth with Sneako… it doesn’t shock me as much as it might have before that fence incident. People are strange. Sometimes they just operate on a different frequency, you know? They say what they want, do what they want, consequences be damned. It’s just out there for everyone to see now, blasted all over the internet instead of just over the back fence.
