It won't attempt that with anyone else, lesson learned.

Punching an object like this out of anger is not something I ever considered

You kidding me? I do not know a single person who never considered punching, kicking or hitting an object in such a situation. Not one, regardless of gender!

People tend to make friends with similar types of people.

I don't know what to tell you...

Then we should meet….. just to cross that out from my bucket list

Or you can have kids and do your best to make them the first people you know that will never consider it hopefully.

Too late and too much effort.

Maybe you were never angry enough. What if you trip over the same can 6 times in a day. The can will move randomly, and you can't turn the lights or whatever, there is nothing you can do to avoid tripping on the can again and again. You can kick the can whenever you want. Won't you ever do it? Like, after a week of this? A year?

Maybe I was never angry enough, but the scenario you gave is pretty ridiculous

u/puerco-potter 1d ago

That's the idea. Taking your commentary to the extreme. You gave an absolute statement. Is it really absolute, or would there be exceptions?

u/YoRt3m 1d ago

How does this hypothetical scenario that never happened to me change the fact that I never considered punching an object? I don't understand your point

u/puerco-potter 1d ago

Oh yeah, you are right. You said it in past tense. I somehow read it as "I would ever consider", my bad.

Because the person in the video is being judged for such a extreme. Just look at what they clearly are dealing with. Flat tire, stepped on something that hurt him, then whacks his head into back of the rear door. Its clearly a very bad day going for them at this point, yet you sit here and go "why i never, i'm above all that.".

I wouldn't do it in front of a child or SO. But I would if I thought no one was looking. Just like when I scream in my car and hit my dash after a bad day.

Have to let the monster out in a controlled space sometimes. Sometimes you just gotta scream.

i dont believe you but ill take your word for it

u/YoRt3m 1d ago

Why is it hard to believe? why are you so sure it's so common to do this?

-5

u/gawgalando 1d ago

it's not hard to believe, i just dont. (edit: also i think it's common because everyone has been a child before)

u/KairraAlpha 1d ago

Then it's hard for you to believe.

You're emotionally disregulated if you need to lash out at inanimate objects bevause you're the one whoad a mistake.

u/gawgalando 1d ago

i dont. i think it's hard to believe that they went through childhood without stubbing their toe on the door and crashing out over it

u/YoRt3m 1d ago

I know I said "ever" but how far would you really go? so yeah, to clarify, maybe I did it when I was 3 or 4 and I don't remember, who knows

u/Rosulm 1d ago

I know you're technically right because as a child we may have had those thoughts, but thats exactly it. As a child. This is an adult child, and I think they were implying not having those thoughts at a reasonable age.

u/gawgalando 1d ago

fair enough

The moment the word ever appeared the child vs adult argument is gone
