Men: have you ever punched a wall in anger?

[Bears Discover Fire]

Can't say I've punched a wall, but once in fit of anger I threw a purse into the wall as hard as I could -- forgetting that I had a few clementine oranges in there, which naturally exploded and pulped on impact all over the inside of the purse and its contents.

That learned me.

 

[Capn Flukie]

Never punched a wall, but I have punched a guy in the face.

 

[Rudolph-Redshirt Reindeer]

Yes I have in the past, but not in recent years. I do still have a reputation for being somewhat highly strung and a bit hot-tempered - although I'm also known for being able to defuse situations with irate patrons and making sure that potential problems don't get out of hand - an interesting juxtaposition.

 

[Noname On A Naughty List]

Yes, right through the drywall. Was easy to fix though. (And yes, I was pissed, I punched before I thought).

 

[JonathonWally]

Sure

 

[clint g]

Nope, can't say I have

 

[ares93]

killed a window too once. oh, and one of those cast walls. left a love fist size hole in it. other vise i've gotten older and wiser since then lol

 

[ByrdMan]

When I was a teenager, sure. I put plenty of holes in the drywall.

 

[NCC1701]

Nope, though I did punch a window out when I was about six, I was an angry little shit, that's for sure. Recently, I can only recall one of my mates punching the driver's and passenger's windows in on his fiance's car one after the other, while she was sitting in it, because they had an argument. Good times.

I punched a wall to keep from punching a guy in the face. But I have only abused the drywall twice though. Both times were to keep from hurting someone... even though they deserved to be.

Normally I am not an angry person but when you finally do push me over the edge... I become someone else. It is not pretty.

 

[The First Joel]

Nope. If I get angry I'll try to find something else to take my angry out on.

 

[Daneel]

No, but my dad did once. I'll never forget it. He put a hole right through the wooden wall in our basement -- until we replaced the wall years later, we just covered it up with a calendar.

It was over the strangest thing too: I was in the 7th grade, and I had misplaced some report I had written. I have no idea if he had just been having a really bad day or something and this was the final straw that set him off or what, but next thing you know, BAM! Hole in wall.

He quickly realized what a stupid overreaction it was. We continue to make fun of him about it to this day.

Oh yeah, and I eventually found the report, in case anyone was wondering.

 

[MetalPants]

Yeah, I punched a few walls as a teenager. Once left a food sized hole in a cinderblock wall at school. All of my friends that were younger than me decided to keep punching that hole whenever it was patched up as sort of a memorial to me.

Then I hit the roof of my car once and broke a couple of knuckles. That was fun.

We won't like you when you are angry?

 

[MeanJoePhaser]

Punch walls, but never through them.

I punched a glass shower door and cut my hand.

 

[Iasius]

Yes, when I was 15 or so. I didn't break it*, but it hurt quite a bit for a couple of days.

I don't remember the reason anymore.


*Edit: My hand, not the wall.

 

[Shazam!]

I never have but I may now after being shafted again in the pay review at work.

 

[TheBrew]

No.

But I did kick a hole in a wall once.

 

[Lowdarzz]

Yes. I punched right through the drywall and cracked it all the way down to the floor.

I was wondering if anyone would get that. But it is true... I just don't turn green.
