>easily overpowers Thanos
this is such dishonest wording lmao bucko
do you know why coke fiends often need to take a shit soon after they score, before they even dose ? because when there's massive anticipation for thing X, and then thing X happens, there's a proportionally massive shift in consciousness, anticipation is suddenly swapped out for relief
now imagine the kind of anticipation thanos would have about acquiring all the infinity stones, and finally completing his lifelong mission
and how long is that ? thor is 1500 years old, and since it would be silly to have thanos be thor's junior - thanos is likely older than that
and when thanos slots in the mindstone, he goes through what looks like a full body orgasm, he's all moaning and closing his eyes and shit
so let's set the scene for you - the moment that thanos' entire adult life has been building to is finally at hand - he's just had the equivalent of an orgasm and now he needs to take a massive shit, just gotta snap first - which he probably intended to do after spacestoning away originally
and then suddenly something is coming at him through the air - and his reflexive response is to blast it with a rainbow beam
not knowing that it's a weapon forged specifically to kill him, from the same metal as the gauntlet, so he underestimates / gets caught off-guard it and gets axed
sure it would have been smarter to just pause time or something, but hey - you're not gonna be having a thinky-think about the optimal course of action in that situation
imagine you just has an orgasm and have to take a shit - and suddenly someone throws something towards you and you'll not be able to figure out what the thing even is before it hits you, because it's moving too fast and the source is between you and the sun in the sky, so you're blinded
while the smartest thing to do might be to duck or sidestep, reflexively you're likely to just cover your face with your hands and brace for impact
