Here's a few quotes from Jimmy's call-in on Brian's stream which I haven't seen on the thread yet. It's clear that if you asked Jimmy about it, he wouldn't even mention whether he did it "deliberately" or whether he "had some level of self-control," because he is so far gone that he literally doesn't accept that it happened the way it did in the first place. He'd either be insulted by the accusation that he wasn't in control of himself then, or acquiesce and say "fine, but Brittany is still a lying cunt and it wasn't that bad." It's deny deny deny all the way down, contradicting himself as he goes. There is no appreciable level of introspection to be had whatsoever.
Right after he attacked her he said he "didn't do anything to her" and was just defending himself from a two-faced assailant who was going to hit him with a hammer, but during the call with Brian he also said he's "obviously sorry" for "getting physical" only
after Brian said it would be a good idea to apologize. At some point he says there may have been "tunnel vision," but doesn't reconsider any of what he did or care at all. It's all just perfunctory words to him, rambling is his forte after all.
I'm assuming he's been a rageful freak his whole life and is used to retelling his dangerous tard rages down to nothing. It puts every sob story he's ever told into perspective. Everything but him being abused at some boarding school,
which was corroborated by his sister, must be questioned. How many women in his life did Jimmy terrorize over fabricated slights? He assaulted Taylor after the triathlon, saying "I'll grab you by your fucking hair and throw you down the fucking hallway" because he thinks she wasn't pulling her weight when he was the one who gave up early, then lunged at her and yelled "fight me" in her face after she lobbed a piece of bread at him. All he needs is a made-up reason, and he doesn't even care if it's a good one.
"You can't be physical with girls like that, man."
"Yeah but, she said she was gonna eat the bread and-"
"I don't care. Even if a girl doesn't eat the bread for you, you can't do that."
(Rough paraphrasing)
The excuses he gave Brian for attacking Brit were so delusional, so demonstrably false, it does make you wonder whether the falsehoods spilling out of his mouth are a symptom of his schizoid brain refactoring his memory of what he's done to sound nicer or just shameless malicious lies like the ones someone whose mind is parked in fifth grade would tell. But the amount of bullshit he told Brian makes it clear that it's the latter. He's sane enough to know that he's lying through his teeth.
JIMMY: "She's taking advantage of the fact there was a blind spot 'cause after I looked at it it's like, 'okay so now i see what the blind spot is.' She's fucking smart, she knows what she's doing."
Brittany could not have predicted that he would show up and corner her, and he was the one that threw her there.
JIMMY: "So you look at the corner of the room, there's a left wall and a right wall. She's all the way on the left wall, I threw that hammer all the way to the right wall, far far away from her. Like I made sure that that shit was not going to go anywhere near her."
Really? Let's see the replay.
That sure looks like he tried to aim it right for her face and not "far far away from her" or "all the way to the right wall."
BRIAN: "Yeah, I don't think you hit her with the mallet but the shove was kind of crazy, bro. The shove was a little wild."
JIMMY: "The shove was overplayed on her part. Like look, it looks bad but believe me, again, that's another case where it's like, if I had done what she's claiming there would have been one hell of a mark. I've thrown dudes into walls before, that's not something that you just get up and there's no mark on ya."
No words of remorse whatsoever. Just denial that he ever did throw her into the corner. What other words would you use to describe this? Seriously, even if she did slip away from his grip and stumble into the corner, what would have happened if he did get ahold of her?
BRIAN: "Yeah, I mean, that didn't look good. I was definitely-"
JIMMY: "It didn't look good but I know the truth is gonna come out soon enough. All my friends and fans are showing me streams and shit but everyone is seeing the fucking truth that's right there, where it's like, okay yeah so if this actually happened then why is it like, there's no marks on you, you're cheering, you're happy, you're acting like nothing's wrong and you keep changing the story and pretending like 'oh yeah, actually, it's this side of the head that he hit me, it's that side of the head.' It's like, she's a bad fucking liar. Has been since day one."
Needless to say, I would also have been happy if the guy who just assaulted me left the show, and "all [his] friends and fans" will not be "seeing the fucking truth."
JIMMY: "She was targeting me from day one. 'I threw your backpack out the window,' someone paid for us to have a forced date, I just explained to her like 'Look, I'm not trying to be your fucking enemy. You got to stop fucking doing this.' and then what does she do it's like, she immediately starts fanning the flames, 'cause I beat her in the dog cage challenge and then it's like Ben's just telling me like 'Hey, yeah, leave it, just be chill, she's out of the fucking dog cage, whatever.' Someone shark attacks, like, I'm just fine (...)"
Those who have been keeping up remember that he had snide remarks to say during their chess date like "I know what you're doing and it's not gonna work on me." To any normal person, that sounds like an invitation to fuck with him further. But Jimmy isn't normal, and Brit didn't even know she could keep her stuff in the basement, so it's production's fault once again. At this point he starts yap yap yapping some more about the show, and people have said that the rest of the call is not as interesting. You get the idea.
