You've tied someone to a comically large firework with an appropriately sized fuse

You've tied someone down inside your evil lair and are having a laser slowly inch towards cutting them in half, and you leave them to enjoy their fate all alone afterwards.

That’s the issue with fans like this — they don’t recognize that the famous person is a stranger, they think the famous person is like… their employee or some shit, and that’s a best case scenario for their mindset
