My roomate (12 years ago) would get pissed off alot, say he was talking on the phone with his girlfriend and they got in a fight. He would hang up and start punching the walls, doors, anything. A few holes were left behind, of course my name was the only one on the lease. And he was clueless as a jackoff, so I had to do the patching to make it look good.
Damn that guy.
Someone back in high school got mad at something. He punched a steel door. The door was fine. His hand was not. I'm glad I don't like to punch things when I get mad; heck, I don't even have a punch reflex.
Don't know - she'd only been awake for like 20 minutes. I guess it's a bad way to start the day when a cat pukes on the rug...but, sheesh. Even I'm not that grumpy when I wake up. And at that stage, I'm not focused enough to hit or kick anything.were things building up all day? sometimes it just takes one minor event to set off an explosion after all the little things have been building up all day.
We've got two cats, and I've got a ball python.Its part of the job as a pet owner. Which is why I don't own pets. If it was never her choice to get the cat, then I can understand why is she is annoyed.
Back before I was born, my parents had three cats. Only a few years before now, we adopted a sickly cat that was being kept in pathetic conditions. She really does like cats. She just hates when they actively seek rugs to barf on - yes, if they're on a hardwood floor (easy to clean), they'll sidestep until they find a carpeted area. THAT is a bit annoying. But hey, it's not easy to teach a cat where it's ok to throw up. At least they prefer the floor - if they're on a bed, they'll leap off and run away before doing anything.
Who says that dogs have clean mouths? They rival human mouths in terms of fungus and bacteria. And they just stink, though our mouths would too if we never brushed our teeth.Ya, that's pretty gross. It's sorta like that with my dog, only she throws up and eats it herself... makes me hate it when people repeatedly insist on letting dogs lick their faces because "they have the cleanest mouths in the world"... blech.

Cat throws up on rug. Best way to deal with it? Scream loudly and yell at cats profusely, and kick a large hole in the wall, right?
As if the poor cat can help throwing up....
Yeah, really. It's getting warmer out, and though they're indoor cats, they know it, and they're shedding like mad. Constant brushings don't help enough it seems.

So instead of cat puke on a rug, now there's cat puke on the rug and a hole in the wall. Really productive.
I actually said something to that effect while she was yelling. I was sort of expecting a hole to be in my chest after that, but it didn't happen.
Unfortunately my girlfriend has similar tendencies...not necessarily with Cat puke...but just in general. Most of the time she is completely level headed, and then something small will set her off. It is rare, but when it happens she does not handle it well. It is the only thing we ever fight over.
Crap, I hope this isn't a chronic problem of women everywhere. I'm usually pretty laid back, and low-stress. There's not a whole lot worth stressing over (except violence, hatred, racism....the big stuff); hairballs on the rug is a very minor issue. Thing is, when other people get stressed out, I start to get edgy. (And when she starts screaming like this, I start to shake all over, and can't stop for like an hour.) It's like I absorb other people's emotions sometimes.
