I read this out for a moment and believe that white can be killed in the lower left quadrant but now that he's played it I have to consider if it's outright overplay or I've missed something. I'll update with variations.

So, I'm playing a tad pissed off right now(rl stuff) and that may be clouding my judgment . I think white can be killed - and I want to kill white.

I think letting white live unconditionally will be worth more than going for sente seki. More points on the outside. We'll see if it comes to that though.

Super aggression switch is stuck at ON. White will break somewhere. I'm too thick for so many white stones to be living. >.<

I think this would be a good exchange for me. If white goes for the corner, then I'm happy as well.
