Nothing.
Never watch other people's performances.
Study your lines and be off the page asap.
Action every line of dialogue, if you don't know what I mean by this, buy or steal this book:

Work out your motivations.
Repeat the entire piece using gibberish but still convey the emotion.
Repeat ad infinitum.
Follow these rules and you too can be a famous actor like me.
Well, do you have a script you can work with?

media student, and a friend of a drug tealer here
try to act stupid, but at the same time be wary of everyone and dont give any trust away
look people straight in the eyes and make sure you look like youre not hiding anything even though you supposedly have drugs

Probably stick to cool and funny until shit hits tue fan, then it turns out you're paranoid and uneducated. Think drugs were sent to us by aliens or some shit.
>>86478545
This, holy shit
>>86480747
The fuck is a Drexl?
