Temper Tantrums
My telephone hasn't been able to receive incoming calls lately. Immediately I thought the issue was with the phone not the line. I mean it's a Siemens phone, German made and, frankly, a telephone I have never much liked.
Yesterday evening I came home from work and called the operator. However, when I dialed "0" on my phone I ended up connecting to 411 and listened to James Earl Jones extol the virtues of Verizon. A directory assistance operator came on the line and told me I had to dial "0." I told her I had. She said I must've dialed incorrectly. I said, how could you possibly think I confused "0" with "411?" She had no answer and insisted I dialed incorrectly. I hung up and tried again. Same result, only a different directory assistance operator who told me to not do anything after dialing "0." This is how I would get a REAL operator. Third time's a charm, as they say, but I didn't win anything and the operator's attitude didn't help. After the fourth attempt at dialing "0" I got a real super directory assistance operator on the line: she refused to recognize that I was extremely frustrated that no less than three of her colleagues has steered me in the wrong direction; she imputed that I could not tell one number from three ("0" and "411"); she alleged that the telephone company no longer checks lines to see if they're working for free - she meanly suggested I call repair. Anyway, this continued for some minutes. At the end of the day I told her to fuck off. That's when I threw the phone at my wall. I picked it up and realized it no longer would turn on.
I went downstairs into my basement, put the phone into a bag and wrapped the bag around the phone several times. I took an anvil down from one of the shelves and began to smash the phone with the anvil. Believe it or not all this succeeded in doing was flattening the phone a bit. Undeterred I retrieved a hammer from my tool chest and began hammering away at the offending object. The sounds of plastic cracking were delightful to my ears. I imagined mailing the smashed phone back to the manufacturer. I laughed at the thought. I had damaged it beyond repair, beyond recognition and I was satisfied. I threw the damned thing in the garbage and went about enjoying the rest of the evening.
So, let's hear about your recent temper tantrums. This one was a doozy.

G-zus Fram, that was a doozy. Well, I've not got a tantrum tale quite to the level of yours. I think the last thing I ever broke in frustration was a skateboard when I used to attempt to skate. Needles to say, I quit that crap.
Suck me beautiful...
*shocked that someone knows someone who works for siemens*
it's a nice company...great designs (from the outside)..he gets paid A LOT

I did the same thing just a week ago. Well ok I didn't. I did throw it at the wall, though.. Broke off the antenna, and made it no workie anymore. Didn't go through with the whole anvil thing, though.
Hrm.. what else. I've smashed up about 5 cds that fucked up when I was burning your mixcds frammy, haha. God damn downloaded burning progs suck. I miss my old one. =[
Dammit. That's not very exciting. I wrecklessly swerve my car at other cars when I'm driving sometimes. It's [i]fun[/i]. It's such a good thing I don't own a gun. I would have shot this motherfucker in this stupid ass suburban the other day. God dammit, wtf.. He's in front of me, in heavy traffic, and he just kinda stops and then slowly as fuck turns right and pulls into this parking lot, except, he only half pulls in, so he's still blocking my fucking lane... WTF!!! Omg.. pisssed me off so much, of course I wasn't stuck for long, I just punched the gas and cut off the guy in the lane next to me to get around this fucking dickhead in the suburban. Motherfucker. If only I had a crowbar. I woudl have gotten out, smashed his fucking window and beat his face in with it. Yeah you like blocking traffic huh you fuck! Think its funny! Yeah well this is pretty fuckin funny too asshole.
Oh lord how I loathe driving.
that's so american of you
yes that's how i will piss people off today
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
i too hate bad drivers..yet i never use the horn..only once..cause that dude was OUT of line...

Breaking empty bottles or glasses is a good way of relieving alot of stress. There's something very satisfying about it. Of course, I'm probably not the most mentally balanced of people.
my friends used to throw lighters on the ground..really really hard..smash it...apparently it explodes..like little portable fireworks

I had a tantrum the other day when I was driving through NYC. If you've live near NYC or have ever driven through it, you know that it can be a NIGHTMARE. I was at a toll plaza, and for some reason at toll plazas people insist upon not using directionals and just randomly darting out of lanes to jump into the next lane. Well this one fuckhole jumps in front of me from the neighboring lane. I had to slam on my brakes to avoid ending up in his trunk. Then the shitface realizes that he doesn't have EZ-pass and has to try and get back into the lane he just left, thus completely blocking the lane I was in. I was so tempted to get out of the car and grab him by his neck and throw him under my wheels and drive over him a few times. And can you believe it, the fucker was from out of state (I forget which state it was). I pulled up next to him and rolled down my window and gave him a nice New York welcome.
And what a great way to do it. Being American is gay. We're now like the Texas of the world. And I live in Texas too.. and a texan got us to this position... mother fuck
my thoughts exactly
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
That's why I wanna move to Europe. Or Australia/New Zealand. Except everything wants to kirr you in australia.. fucking aggressive spiders everywhere, screw that. so New Zealand it is then... Canada would be nice, too. I'm just tired of America, or maybe tired of my life, blah, I dunno.. Need a chaaaaaaaange...... Heh, really though. I feel like I don't fit in here. America's all "zoom zoom zoom your career is the most important thing ever must succeed must succeed hurry the fuck up already".. you know? And people from europe/elsewhere just seem so much more laid back. I like that.
it's like that everywhere to an extent
but it does seem like the europeans are more laid back..more vacation time etc etc
but keep in mind our sense of their lifestyles has been filtered by the north american eye...beware
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
go to california to be more laid back. those sunshine boys are always sleeping compared to the new york lifestyle.
Yeah, that too. Oh well. Grass is always greener on the side, etc etc.. Fuck that.. Gay saying. Oh well.
i love NYC>..if i wasnt in toronto already..i would so move to NYC
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
NYC is cool. It sometimes gets stereotyped unfairly by the rest of the country.
same with toronto
i was on the subway last summer going to school ...and while my friends were chatting away in chiense..i was standing there listening to music..and apparently my friend's father was on the same cart and he looked at me or somethign but i totally didnt see. so he told his son about it. and his son was like "rita would never ignroe you and not say hi"...and his father said "dont worry that's a very torotonian thing to do"...
sigh..
people always think we are unfriendly...i'm TOO friendly
but there are always exceptions to the rule
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
Heh, well if I could pick one place in the US to live it'd be NYC... Then Colorado.
why colorado...
i would never survive there...
love the city..will forever be a city gurl
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
There is city in Colorado. It's called Denver. I dunno, only been there twice, and I was a little kid both times. But I just love the scenery. It's so beautiful there. NYC is my first choice cos I like the city, although I've had little experience with it. Fucking life in the suburbs. Blah. But yeah, I'd rather live in the city, so NYC is my [i]first[/i] choice, then Colorado, just cos it's a gorgeous state.
just reminds me of south park...
NYC all the way...then maybe..hmm..i dont know..but def NYC
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
i think i romanticizes NYC ....
but really ...i love the place...would love to live there
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
Haha, yeah, okay I guess... But it's really nice there. I guess it'd be where I'd have a summer home or something, if I were rich you know..
wouldnt it be too cold?
summer home? the hamptons? lol...or martha's vineyard? etc etc
if i have the money..and the resources...summers would be spent in europe..italy..i love florence
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
Yeah, but we were talking about US... So.. yeah.. Fuck i dunno.. Screw this conversation.
umm.....o-----kay
that was mature..
*dotn make me do it disx
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
I just realized I had no idea what I was talking about. I don't have any favorites. I can't pick favorites. I suck at it. I'm indecisive. NYC is #1 choice but after that I'm lost. Blaaaaaaaaah.
and it never ends..
i never say "best friends" beucase i think it's unfair to judge and place people and rank them
NYC NYC NYC i heart thee
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
I'm so deprived.
we all are..
or not
[img]http://img93.exs.cx/img93/3678/hoos13as.jpg[/img]
Yeah. Just me.
i kicked a hole in the wall in the basement once. and i wrecked a closet door.
when i was in the nuthouse, they tried to take my discman away the first night i was there, apparently because i could have tried to kill myself with it or pieces of it (according to them). i flipped out and got threatened with "the quiet room." lol.
[SIZE=1][QUOTE=ehquestionmark]Wow. This little thread got CRAZY. People telling me to abuse my girlfriend, people showing an alarming lack of respect for women as a whole, people questioning my masculinity in some kind of bizarre machoistic pissing-contest. Hell, I even got called stuffy. [/QUOTE]

Ya, I kicked a hole in my parents' door with my barefoot when I was like 15. Got a big nasty piece of wood in my foot doing it, too. And of course, I've cracks all over my doors thanks to punching them various times. Actually got a fairly big hole in one and then a little hole in the wall, too.
I ate my own foot.
Look at me! Look at me! I'm dark and slightly dangerous!
It hurt.
Look at me! Look at me! I'm dark and slightly dangerous!
A lot.
Look at me! Look at me! I'm dark and slightly dangerous!
I've kicked and punched many holes in the walls during my youth. One time I was so mad that I ripped my bedroom door off its hinges. Ah the wonder of adrenaline and hormones.


By the way, never, ever buy a telephone from Siemens. They really do suck.
