Do you ever want to just be violent?

[Rick2000]

Our male ancestors wouldn't sitting in cubicles all day, but instead killing Sabre Tooths and even eachother if need be. So it's only natural to have these impulses if you have any amount of testosterone pumping through your veins. Don't apologize for it. If anything, it makes you more of a man.

I've found the best way to do deal with my inner caveman is to workout (nothing serious, just pushups and situps) and masturbate a lot. Punch a wall too every once in a while. It will help you function better in this pussified, feminized society.

They didn't have cubicles and the saber-toothed tiger is long gone.

"We don't have a lot of time on this earth. We weren't meant to spend it this way. Human beings were not meant to sit in little cubicles staring at computer screens all day, filling out useless forms and listening to eight different bosses drone on about mission statements."
Peter Gibbons, Office Space

He was doing back-breaking labor at the end of the movie.
I doubt that is what we were put on the planet to do all day.

I've definitely felt the urge to take a baseball bat to someone's face or a steel pipe to someone's kneecaps before. I'm not gonna act on it, but I've definitely felt the same way before.

With me, it's a long handled shovel...like in Good Fellas, before they buried that guy that was in the trunk, when he started thrashing around, and they bashed him in the head...I get the urge to do that sometimes, then I remember how much I would loose if I went through with it, so I let out a deep sigh, and move on.

It would be easier not to have violent urges if the world didn't have so many stupid people in it.

 

[NavyBlue]

With all the shootings that we are having, maybe a Fight Club is needed to get the stress out of people, to let them punch each other instead of shooting with a real gun. I have no intention of inflicting violence but there are times when I wish I can go to a local shooting alley and let off some steam. My boss is killing us with work due to the drastic drop in sales and I am hating my job more and more.

The cure for your problem, ice hockey.

Believe me, it works.

 

[Skyraider22]

No i am :thumbsup:too happy

 

[E-Ann-Hilden]

a very strong no....

 

[Marlo Manson]

Indeed I have a very bad temper. and it comes out everywhere and anywhere, but I have NEVER been in trouble with the law because of my short fused temper.

My temper has gotten me into plenty of trouble with family and friends, but I've never gotten pissed and decided to take out my rage on somebody else.

If I am upset, pissed off, restless with stress..etc.. or any form of negative aggression I will go workout / exercise. I go for a walk. I listen to music. I'll go for a nice relaxing drive. and when none of those will kill my rage, I love nothing more than going too the shooting range and squeezing off a 100 or so rounds like I did Saturday afternoon.

A guy shooting his gun @ a paper target in a legal shooting range is way more sensible and logical than going totally retard and shooting a bunch of innocent people dead :yesyes:

Infact one of the local police officers was @ the range while I was shooting. we even spoke a bit and I didn't end up leaving with him. nor was he upset with me. :nono:

Reminds me of a Christopher Walken scene from a Woody Allen movie.

I may have day dreamed up a few things nasty but I'm pretty much a pacifist - unless my family is attacked

 

[Wainkerr99]

Funny you should mention: I have wanted to take a few people's heads to bang them on a desk. However, lately I let conscience do the talking. I have to contradict that urge within myself.

Anyone remember the Alley McBeal show? She would go psycho on someone. The first couple of times I thought it really happened. It turned out it all happened in her mind. I tried finding such scenes on youtube but nada.

Unless Paula Deen makes it. Then just throw it on the floor and call her a chunky cunt. HE HE HE!!!

:runs away, arms flopping like little girl:

Oh, you did not just talk shit about Paula Deen! That woman makes the most kick ass food on the Food Network! You mess with her, and you're messing with me! :fight: :ak47: :violent: :thefinger

Yeah, if you want to clutch your chest, gasp your last breath, and fall over from a butter filled, vein clogging, deep fried massive coronary.

by the way, I never saw the clip, where her pants fell down during show taping, from the microphone transmitter...I wouldn't mind seeing that old tarts big jiggly ass...anyone got it?

 

[Facial_King]

Occasionally, but mostly in response to people who are themselves violent or behaving in some stupidly reckless way (esp. driving).

I've sorta wished for guys who were driving like assholes (like they're in an F1 race combined with demolition derby), as though they were the only people on the roads, to get in a bad accident so that they couldn't drive anymore, but I guess that's a bit different.

The problem is that violent people (who almost always have really bad ideas) tend to dominate society overall.

The more one acts on their violent urges, the dumber one becomes. Overdoses of testosterone can kill gray matter, I'm afraid.

Yup. It's called whiskey. Shit just ends up broken the next day. Controllers, doors, when luck starts to fail me... ya know the times.. you pick up a pen to write something and the jar falls over. Then the pen has no ink. You throw the pen and it gets lost under the fridge. You reach over to pick it up and cant get it until the fourth *grasp* at which time you take it out to the pond on your patio and toss it into the drink. Walk back inside to find your drink room temperature and you're at a boss in the game who will kick your ass left and right before taunting you. You have a sneezing fit and snot drips onto your shirt before you can blow your nose.

You walk to the restroom for some tissue or hankies or WHATEVER but your drink is fucking warm and that's no good so to multitask you drop 2 icecubes in before heading to the restroom. Blow that fucking snot out, make a nosebleed from the pressure and fucking hell, I was wearing white today. That wont come out for a few washes if I let it set.

. . . stub that one single toe Twice ! In five minutes time with icey cold feet . . . spin the cylinder on your S & W .38 Police Special (still lying on the table from the previous nights' beer drinking game) blow your toe off in the process . . . There was that round that had evaded us all night long :uohs:

Not really. I've been in fights in the distant past. I've punched holes in doors and walls. But I have no urge to be violent towards other human beings.

Anything besides whiskey and I'm perfectly fine.

I'm like that with vodka. Whiskey (even cheap whiskey) and I get on just fine.

:rofl: I'd completely forgotten that scene.

I was an angry young man ...

I was an angry, young man. By age 15, I started recognizing that. By age 24, I had eliminated every ounce of it.

I think everyone is violent. The question is, how "content" are we? Being "content" mitigates and even eliminates violent tendencies, at least that has been my experience both first-hand and what I see first-hand.

A lot of people turn to violence when they cannot find peace with things. They might think it's about "resolution," but it's actually about making your peace with things. If there is any, common denominator among all spiritual teachings and religions, it's that.

So the real question in life is, what makes you content? What keeps you from dealing with things in violent ways? If you have trouble finding it, then -- as much as it sounds cliche -- sometimes finding religion is for you. For others, it depends on what makes you content.

But even beyond that. Ask yourself if you will still be content if you lose what makes you content? Now that's where I really start to question people. As much as people say religion causes wars, the true, spiritual quest that most undertake actually doesn't, and people who are spiritual do find contentment in most situations (assuming they don't blame God, which many do, and then leave).

My life with my wife makes me content. If I lost my wife, would I still be content? I think so. I'd find a way. I learned that nothing is for certain in this world. So arguing about money, worrying about everything that could happen, and otherwise thinking I cannot survive if my world was turned upside down, is definitely things I have left in the past.

So the question is now to you. Do you have a good life? What do and don't you like about your life? What makes you content? What doesn't? How are you going to deal with it? Don't use violence as an escape. It's hardly healthy. If you are very content with your life, then a fantasy of violence could be an indicator of another issue.

As far as Fight Club, Hollywood is hardly life. Hollywood tends to over-simplify everything. It's not what it seems. Don't live in the movies, because in real life, they pretty much all have bad endings. I assume this is all your problem is, and it's nothing to be worried about -- unless, of course, you act upon it.

And then you'll find your not Edward in the end.
