Things you have broken when angry

I guess this could be taken in many ways- so let fly.

My lastest was the controller to my Playstation 2, which met with an adverse interaction with the ground while playing ESPN Football 2004. Make that a repeated adverse interaction. Sigh, add $24 to the long tally of things smashed as a source of stress relief.

:o

A wall (punched hole through).
A steel fire door (bent and dented with bare hands).
Wooden door (punched panels out)

These days, I prefer creative invective. I’m really a very mellow person unles provoked.

A glass dresser top.
My bedroom door.
A cabinet door.
3 windows.

Golf clubs. Though I did break one a couple of months ago when I was upset I didn’t mean to. I threw it sideways and it snapped. However in true anger I broke a 3-wood, 8 iron and a putter.

I also put my hand through a wall once.

For the temper I sometimes have, there is little debris in my wake. I tend to use colorful epithets and high amplitude vocalizations to relieve my stress instead of disintegrating material objects. That doesn’t change how much fun it is to plink at pop bottles with a rifle, though.

Thread titles?

:smack: Oh dear, better run now! Could be me next! :smack:

I once tried to put my brother’s head through a wall. Does that count?

I once slammed a phone down so hard after an argument that the receiver broke in half. At least it wasn’t an expensive phone!

Nothing.

As an angst-ridden teen, I ripped a $20 bill up in front of a girl I angry at. She was like “:dubious:, ahhh, so it’s fake” :smack:

Once, in a teenage-angst induced rage that (thankfully) I’ve never repeated, I turned a 10 foot 2x4 into splinters by bashing it against the ground repeatedly.

I’m not the type to do these things very often, though I once destroyed an alarm clock pretty thoroughly when it wouldn’t shut up quickly enough to suit me.

An Olympus 3000 35mm camera. I hurled it against a wall (along with a few other less expensive things) in a fit of fury and frustration a few days after the death of a child.

My violin, because the sounds weren’t coming out right.

I, too, killed a phone, after a telemarketer hung up on me. Those little buttons on the cradle of rotary phones will eventually disappear entirely into the phone if you slam the receiver down enough (3) times.

A disposable camera
The wall in my bathroom
About four or five glass things

Only one thing - a light bulb. Fortunately, this was outside which limited the dangerousness of the mess, but wow, a regular old 100 watt incandescent can smash most magnificently when dashed to the ground with sufficient force!

A stress ball.

Well, did it break?

Things I’ve broken in a fit of rage:
My CPU, but I got it fixed (as I mentioned in the “Do you curse at inanimate objects” thread)
A couple of alarm clocks
A chair
A fan
Lots and lots and lots of pencils and pens

Two things usually stop me from breaking or smashing things: the clean-up afterwards and the eventual guilt of breaking something expensive.
