Sorry to the people dealing with the fires in LA area but I have to admit that I laughed hard when I heard Mel Gibson's house burnt down during this interview. Absolutely hilarious to me.

I dunno how the hell I could tell from back in the day, watching movies he was in, that I couldn't trust him. Just something about the way he acts. I can't put my finger on it.

If you watch the Lethal Weapon movies, it’s not hard to spot.

I haven't in decades, but maybe I'd understand if I did nowadays.

I'm not talking about the characters he plays though. Just the way he carries himself and how he looks at women and shit. Like, it's just giving "brother, eww". Can't fully put my finger on it.

There were hints. Dude played Mad Max and the loose-cannon crazy cop in Lethal Weapon. Is it acting or maybe he was born with it?

And interactions with women, just... He seemed like a scoffer. Scoffing at women. You know? I don't respect scoffers who scoff unnecessarily.

Did he ever win an Oscar? Did he leave it in his house? I bet he didn't see that one coming.
