Yeah. It's not going to work. Thinking like that will just make things worse. And even in that convoluted scenario, you still didn't hurt anyone.
Reflexive thoughts are not your judgements. They are your brain reacting, and there's nothing you can do to stop it (short of some really drastic measures!)
Pool would be the first person I ever heard of who either doesn't have bizarre thoughts, or can somehow control them. Or perhaps he's just really good at convincing himself he doesn't have them at all. Who knows.
