Going to cut this tree down during lunch

Any tips?
I want it to fall to the right, the opposite direction to which it is leaning.
Should I just push reel hard on it?

notch it big and deep on the right then cut from the left at an angle slightly above the point of the notch
Then be ready to run like hell

then cut on the back side slightly higher than the notch. Try to wedge a dickbutt in your fell cut as you go.
Was disappointed there was no dickbutt in pic. You have a persona to maintain here.

I think most people would just go to Home Depot and Lowes and buy every box fan they had and blow it down with a simulated hurricane...but you do you Mr. Can't Wait To Use A Chainsaw.

Park you car just to the left of the tree so you'll have more incentive to do it correctly.
Plus, we'll enjoy the story more if you screw it up.
