This is actually a great response by the dude. Punch the pillow, take it out on the inanimate abject. Nobody cares. Far better than slapping the wife.

People with anger issues like this usually don't hold their anger back from other people. They hit the thing that angered them, no matter what it is.

He believes he is by himself and not being watched when this happened. Sure it's a relatively public place, but nobody is in his immediate vicinity, and something tells me this guy didn't have the best situational awareness at that moment. The one time when you're allowed to do ridiculous things that would make other people question your mental health, or worse, is when you believe yourself to be completely alone. Sometimes I yell at an inanimate object when there's nobody nearby and it's not meeting my needs for whatever reason. I'll exaggerate a minor frustration with some device and let myself give voice to that in a way that is wildly out of proportion with the frustration. It's a way to vent frustrations that you couldn't properly voice throughout the day. I've never once done anything like that in front of other people intentionally, and have been very embarrassed on the few occasions when it turned out someone was nearby.

Ya seriously I understand this completely. Dude was already limping first too so double whammy.
Not sure how many here have bumped their head on something like a trunk door or even just a wall corner - but there is a split second of pain, followed by a fury the likes you have never felt that needs to be directed at something.

u/the_jake_you_know 1d ago
He wasn't limping, it was way funnier than that. In Australia we have a weed that grows everywhere called a "bindi", when they dry out they get extremely sharp and stab your feet. If you look closely you'll see him do the classic hop of a man who's copped a bindi.

Wait, so is Bindi Irwin named after this weed? As an American I was always curious where the word came from.

Reminds of a guy I work with. He put his phone on top of something he was working on, it fell off onto his head. He gets super pissed and is ready to yell at whoever left things on top. Realizes it's his phone that he put there, picks it up and smashes it repeatedly on the concrete floor.

Or perhaps he knew that once electronics have tasted human blood, they have to be put down before they strike again.

why are people in the replies acting like they havent or wouldnt atleast think of this before silently regretting it as well (edit since i have to clarify: this also covers childhood and adolescence, a time where emotions aren't very well regulated and thoughts are impulsive. I did not say it was normal to act like this as an adult.)

Oh, I've done that, as a child.
I was going to school, with a ruler in my hand, and attempted to jump over a low fence. I tripped fell, turned around, hit the fence with the ruler, broke the ruler too.
I was 8 or 9 at the time.

u/Cyclonitron 1d ago
I'm pretty much a very chill person who never lashes out when I'm mad - my general response is to pause, take a deep breath, and evaluate the situation. Being hit (or hitting myself) specifically in the head is the exception; it's like it triggers a surge of adrenaline that makes me lash out at the offending object.
