Temper, Temper

[Mick The Mig]

Are you one of those laid-back people who don't get up-set by anything and regard problems with your car and life as a learning experience and chance to do things a different way? Or are you someone who vents their frustration in the form of anger and beats up on inanimate objects? I Remember someone "no names" who smashed a jig-saw with a lump hammer cos' it didn't cut straight.

 

What things have you killed in a fit of temper?

 

Me? I'm so laid-back I'm horizontal.

[countrybumpkin]

hmmm i'll normaly just swear at it if it going wrong but nothing else, my way of looking at it is if it goes wrong it goes wrong theres nothing i can do about it

[Takeshi]

I dunno, I can get pretty firey at times. Though for some reason when it comes to my car, if something goes wrong or needs doing, I just think "It's 29 years old, give it a break."

 

I do explode from time to time though a few things, computers do my head and the tower has dents in it where I've lost my temper with it, and a few other things.

 

I normally lose my rag when arguing with people though, if I get pushed over the edge I can get pretty nasty

What things have you killed in a fit of temper?

The rear quarters on a scrapper 1600 Ghia with a hammer & the roof with me jumping up & down on it!

[over_head_cam]

99.99% of the time things wash over me but occasionally I flip and something gets FUBAR. The last thing was the door on the washing machine: claw hammer from outside the front door, straight down the hallway without touching the sides

 

Mrs OHC wasn't impressed

[Dr Feelgood]

im very laid back but when i do get annoyed beware, thats when things start flying lol

[Copey]

laid back most of the time and with most things, do eventually get fed up and wond up but most the time have patience

[mk1super]

Im not ashamed to admit this i have anger issues, i have attended anger management coarses with little sucess it only really takes the slightest thing and i lose it.

 

My best wobbler to date was

 

I kicked over the bike as the fairing ( after market crap fitting fibre glass job ) refused to fit When i'd calmed down. I then got the box the fairing had came in, and sat on it, i then put what was left of the broken fairing back in box with a note to the maufacturer saying this is how i recived it, iam most unhappy with the product and serivice can i get a refund And i got it

[Durham Fiesta]

one of the shelves at work today got in my way when i was pissed off, hope no-one notices the big dent

[bronze4door]

nothing really bothers me an i just let it go

 

uless its a doris winding me up or other drivers being knobs on the road

[ratman]

Ive got a size 11 boot print in my ally garage door that was the day the exeaust fell on the the side door of the tina

 

normaly prety cool but not that day

 

best bit the next day i jacked up the car with the boot open stright in to the garage roof bars

 

didnt beat any thing up just cryed like a baby

[evil knievel]

i lose my rag over a lot of things. i dont always get angry but i get King stressed out some times!!

 

especially with kids

 

if it is something with the car or some thing im trying to learn i take it as a 'learning experience'

 

but there is a punch bag upstairs that has taken quite a pounding over the years

[pauline]

when it comes to the car take it with a pinch of salt something always going wroung.

 

did use my hammer to take the rails what my ex had in the house when i got a letter from the soilceter saying he wanted the house when the diroce was going through.

 

had them all off in half a hour with a fem dent in the walls

[Nettles]

No comment!.......................................................................ok ok so maybe I once smashed up a jig-saw with a lump hammer because It didn't cut straight!

[Jimbob-Squarepants ©]

I used to have a very short fuse, but I have mellowed a bit with age. Having said that, I did launch a head gasket and the bonnet of the Anglia across the garden a little while ago when I was having my run of engine problems

[Mick The Mig]

Hey Jimbob you got me there. I always put you down as the original Mr Cool unpertubed to the extreme!

[X-pack-Glyn]

Mostly laid back intill someone hits the wrong button...then il go out my way for years to make thier life hell...

 

ive also been known to hold a grudge for over 15 years before going back to sort the problem.

[Mr Sam]

i can get quite bad, imbedded the old ps2 into the wall the other day cuz the motor burnt out

 

crushed my old computer when it died even though my stepdad said he would save it, didnt want him finding the porn collection

 

booted the spare parts fiestas door in with frustration trying to get the engine out

[Stu_B]

I used to have a temper but I'm pretty chilled out now.... too many bruised & broken knuckles... not to mention the time I headbutted a pintglass

[Guest cortinamad-gonetoo]

im not quiet as bad as i was but im waiting to attend anger managment

 

once i got out of my car (a nissan cherry) and kicked the fook out of it smashed all the lights in kicked every panel in etc then left it over night in the middle of malton and took it to the scrap yard the next day

 

the number of doors and walls ive put my fist through too and i once (this was as a kid ) kicked a brick wall with my trainers on fook me that hurt

 

really i have calmed down a bit but i still gonna go to anger management when i get the appointment through

[Mick The Mig]

Fists through doors reminds me of a house we bought in Norfolk. Several of the doors were covered with posters, when we took then down every door had been smashed through!!!

[hotrodholty]

im quite calm 90% of the time, nob head drivers are the worst for pissing me off, although i did lose my rag with the sky remote last night, it keeps changing channel on its own and some buttons dont work, needless to say, it now has no buttons left as they all seemed to disapear as it exploded into a million peices bouncing off the wall at 100mph

luckilt we have a spare.

i used to punch doors and walls, but had to stop myself, i either busted up my hand or put it straight through the door/wall. doors and plasterers ar'nt cheap.

i find goin the gym, lifting some heavy weights and knocking fook out of a big punch bag 3 times a week, tires me out to much to be bothered to lose my rag anymore

[tash105e]

i would say im quite a laid back person (sometimes so laid back im lying down lol) it takes alot to piss me off but when something does they/ it will kno about it

[D4N]

Few missing keys on the laptop keyboard..

Picked up the laptop and chucked it back on the desk...

Chucked plenty of spanners accross the drive... Worst bit with this is, after you chucked it you need it and you feel like a numpty going to get it again

 

 

 

My dad slams doors when arguing with my mam. She wants said bet you wouldnt do that with your rally cars! He went into the garage picked up a hammer and smacked it off the bonnet. Thank fook he went to the bmw not the escort!
