That brings up something interesting, about Lucas licking the deodorant:
We all know he licked it, but when the Geek Room questioned him about it, he insisted that he had sniffed it, understanding that licking someone's deodorant was a bad look.
And yet he filmed himself licking it. He couldn't not film himself licking it, even though he understood that licking it was a bad look.
This is the sort of contradiction that I don't understand in Lucas. He fusses over his hair, complains that it looks terrible without gel, and then takes the ugliest, least-flattering pictures of himself that I've ever seen a human take.
Is it that he's so narcissistic that he thinks presenting himself in any fashion is impressive, just because it's him, like if a little two year old kid runs out naked into the middle of his parents' party, just delighted with his own nakedness, and not realizing that it's socially inappropriate? Or is it that his vanity comes and goes? Does he have something, like a tic, compelling him to make these hideous images?
It's a mystery.
In a similar vein, he talks about the Voices on the Wind as if everyone should know what that is, and everyone has them, but then when directly questioned about the Voices on the Wind, he gets incredibly defensive, and clams up.
His ego defense mechanisms seem to flit in and out, as does his awareness of what is and isn't socially acceptable. It's one of the least consistent things about Lucas, who is clearly a creature of habit, (as we all are) and thus the most interesting to me.
