it speaks for itself. last i checked "really" meant someone really wanted to do something.

You've never "really" wanted to do something in the heat of rage that you thought back on and would never even think about doing with a clear mind?
doesn't change the fact that his title is misleading.

Only a handful of people in this thread (including yourself) have misinterpreted the title.

I wouldn't say that warrants the title being misleading.

Looks like someone could have benefitted from a nice, firm, slap.

Yes this post fvcking damn well DID offend me. As I mentioned earlier - and I will avoid getting into detail - I have witnessed violence between SEVERAL married couples on numerous occasions IN REAL LIFE, IN MY LIFE.

Do you really find it that FAR FVKCING FETCHED that such a post would offend me? IS THERE NOTHING THAT RAISES YOUR IRE? NOTHING? Or do you just sit there and keep your opinions to yourself?

What do you stand up for mobobuff? What do you speak your mind on? Or do you simply wait to see which side you prefer in any given debate, and jump in when the time is right, as you did in this thread?

To the OP: I apologize FULLY. IT WAS NOT WORTH THE EFFORT at all. To those that think violent thoughts and urges are NORMAL and ACCEPTABLE - CHECK YOUR FVKCING HEAD. The fact that they are common only proves that our society is FVCKED UP. Yay, let's all chime in - if we all feel the same, it must be right, RIGHT?

WRONG. So yes, I have expressed my opinion and I urge everyone out there to do the same. You only live once and I am glad for every time I am given the opportunity to SPEAK MY MIND. Call it grandstanding, call it soapboxing, call it whatever the hell you want. But I'd rather post than bite my tongue - I'll never change and I'm proud of it.

:|

If you've never once in your life had the urge to injure someone else, you must be more highly evolved than the rest of the world, because most of us have, at one time or another, felt that way. That's the way humanity is, except for you, apparently.

Really, go start a poll if you don't beleive me. It is perfectly normal for people to feel violent when they're angry. What seperates moral people from criminals is thier ability to keep from acting on those feelings.
your thread title is very misleading.

I'd have to agree, a better title would be "Ever felt like..." or "ever get the urge to..."

Meh... it's just a vent. Some people will say anything whether they mean it or not when just ranting. That's all it is, though; it's just a rant.

Now if someone actually acts on it, that's something different.
yeh, true, but with the thought... can the act be fair behind?

sometimes not.



But with the thought.... can the act be far behind?


Hrm... I have thousands of thoughts a day, Ive acted on a few dozen when the day is done.


Sometimes I day dream that I can fly, or am super strong, or have magical powers....


But with the thought.... can the act be far behind? Yes, the act is impossible... so it is WAY far behind :)


Ive thought of killing my self thousands of times... will never do it.... no real reason, just idle speculation and day dreaming.


We are humans, we react to certain things in similar ways. My friend pisses me off, I might shove him.... my wife pisses me off, do I have the same inclanation? Well she almost never upsets me so I cant say for sure, but I guarantee if she was so blatanly abrasive and abusive to actually piss me off, for a split second my reaction will be the same as I would experience normally, but after that split second I would adjust myself and never even think of touching her.


having a thought, reaction, feeling, can still be a big difference from acting on it.


It is restraint and self-control that define mankind, some choose to act on this, others don't.


With the proper character it is possible to have all kinds of thoughts, and only act on the good and right kind (and hopefully non-violent)


What is a thought anyway? I picture a movie I saw where the guy shot someone... is that a thought, or memory of something I saw? I picture the same scene but from the point of view Im shooting a boss, or enemy.... still a misplaced memory or a thought of agression that I might act on.


Anyway, kinda silly to put down the OP for a simple thought

you know what I think is nice sometimes? Sitting on the porch with my sweetie and a cool glass of fresh lemonade and a sprig of mint. Now, normally you'd think that the mint would do nothing to enhance the experience, but it most certainly does. There's a pleasantly cool aroma it delvers every time you take a sip from the glass which just adds to the refreshing appeal of the glass. Add to that a nice warm slice of pecan pie...or maybe a nice wedge of cheesecake and I tell ya, I can't imagine heaven being that much nicer. Cheesecake is definitely superior to pie when you think about it. There's an interesting contrast you get tho, with the warmness of a beautiful woman in your lap, the chill of the lemonade, and the inherent smoothness of the cheesecake that seems to just...fit. ya know?

Fortunately I was raised better than that, I would never actually do it.

Just needed to vent, I guess.

Title edited, apparently the old one was misleading.

I think there was something in the air today, my girlfriend was pissing me off today as well. I just sit there, shut my mouth, nod my head every 35 seconds and wwait until she's finished yapping.

*Chuckling!* You were so confident that it's a common thing, yet you felt the need to ask the question here? Wow, I guess logic isn't your forte. That explains why you resort to the thought of violence as your means of resolving an issue.

This thought would make sense from someone who's grown up in a culture of domestic violence. He's known that to be acceptable, and it often takes time to alter immoral or incorrect beliefs or habits. If I read this from a Mexico native, for instance, I would be bothered but not angered. What is extremely disappointing and shameful is that this comes from a supposed California native whose experience should never have crossed such thought in the first place. The counties establish programs for issues like this with people who had the "urge" and acted on it because they weren't familiar with the law, and their spouses reluctantly accepted that way of life.

I love how some people are resorting to the fallacy of begging the question and accidental application of a word. Having thoughts about, for instance, wings to fly isn't the same as a realistic, plausible, albeit inconceivable thought of slapping someone simply because the person angers or irritates you. And slapping a stranger is not the same as slapping a domestic partner. The stranger you slap for all you know may teach you complete lesson by the end of the day, so your thoughts are with consideration of embarrassment and injury to yourself. A stranger is also more likely to call law enforcement. However, with someone you sleep with and are familiar with, and with an issue such as domestic violence that's caused counties to institute programs, it makes no sense to just dismiss the statement as "just a thought". You must know for sure that she isn't physically or emotionally strong enough to defend herself, unlike a stranger whose strength you have no knowledge of. Either you're telling us that you came from an abusive home, where it was thought to be acceptable, or you're plain abusive--even if verbally--to your gf. Considering some of your past posts, I wouldn't put it pass that.

Talk about pot calling kettle: You even felt it okay to whore a picture of her behind with the title 'Girlfriend ass pics'. Talk about respect. It seems clear to me that the only thing that keeps you from physically assaulting her is the law. You know how strong the law is in California about domestic abuse, especially in the state capital where you reside. If the law did not exist or was not enforced, the so-called restraint you brag about would be absent. Oh, yes, I'm sure there's no reason for concern.... :roll: Shame on you for considering hurting someone powerless because you couldn't do that to someone your strength or guts ... or should I say, no guts! :disgust:

I have allowed myself to become very angry at girlfriends at one time or another, but I've never had the desire to physically abuse any of them (even as two of them cheated on me). I'm a powerful guy, lift weights, etc, but it does not come naturally to me to think of violence or to feel the tensing within my body.

I never have or will do something like that. I've gotten mad, but I would just ignore her (when there was a "her" :( ) for a few days.
Never even crossed my mind.

JEEZ people, normal people have thoughts that are morally reprehensible all the time. Are we to demonize people for having passing thoughts?



I, having found out that my wife has turned up the thermostat, have often offered to set her on fire.

*Chuckling!* You were so confident that it's a common thing

It's not a common thing? Are you sure?

If you think logic isn't my forte, you must of missed the fact that I'm a computer programmer. I went to college to learn to understand logic. I am often teased by fiancée for being too logical about things all the time. She probably doesn't know what she's talking about though, because you, as a world renowned black square with no name, are obviously a much more qualified judge of my reasoning abilities.

As far as resorting the the *thought* of violence to resolve an issue, the whole idea is absurd. No one ever resolved anything with a thought. You can think about violence all day long and it's not going to hurt anyone, and you can think about peace all you want but it's not going to stop people from dying in Iraq. Issues are resolved or escalated by actions, not thoughts. Do you remember all the way back to the first post when I said what action I took? In case you don't: none. I did nothing.

I could go into how you're whole paragraph about Mexico/California is completely racist, but I don't really think that's the way you feel. You're just not good enough at trying to make yourself sound smart to come up with anything believable, and the best you could do ended up making you sound like a bigot. You don't seem to have noticed, though. Maybe you should proof-read your rants.

And the next paragraph, you call my fiancée physically and emotionally weak. Have you met her? No? So you just know for a fact that she's weak because I got mad at her? And you're accusing me of being bad at logic? And then you're telling me that I'm either abusive, or that I was raised in an abusive home? Do you have any evidence of either? No, you're just pulling sh!t out of your ass again, trying to sound smart and important.

As far as the "ass pic" goes, it was posted with her permission. Of course you would know that, because you were over at our house when I took it. I distinctly remember the person with a face shaped like a black square visiting on that day. You really think that the only reason I haven't hit my fiancée is because there's a law against? A few sentences ago didn't you say she's too weak to do anything about it, and she's not likely to call the police? Your psychological profiling skills are so great, aren't they? You've got me fearing the police that she would obviously be too weak and afraid to call. If you had the slightest idea what you were talking about in the last paragraph, why in the hell would I care about the law?

I'm going to have to apologize for the whole "black box" for a face thing. We all thought it was just you being a coward before, but it seems obvious now that you really do have a black hole for a head, from which nothing intelligent ever escapes.
