Losing Control

Simple response.

Take a shit on their doorstep.

Simple response.

Take a s**t on their doorstep.

But make sure they haven’t got one of those doorstep cameras first.

You mean a ring piece doorbell?

How this scenario played out in Tennessee recently:

It's absolutely crazy, so many people are dead over trivial arguments in the USA.

It does happen in the UK as well, what's the nitty gritty of it all, is it just a case of not backing down?

Once you ask somebody which they will not do, it just escalates, I would not be surprised if over the length of time, maybe somebody got killed as arguing over in a place in a queue?

It seems to me, there are only certain people you can approach, but there are in society, say 1% you can't approach reason with? And they will harm you.

It's all good, saying, put dog poo, through the letter box, but at the end of the day, that's just bravado.. I couldn't believe the other day how many small cameras are by me, you imagine what that would be like in court, 'yeah she left the dog poo, and left it so I just put it through her letterbox , would the magistrate say, 'I hate dog poo as well , dirty gits, case dismissed'?

Another example, I was cut up on a mini roundabout, by quite a big bloke, all I did was stop to avoid a collision, what did he do.. he shouted ferk you, and I repeated it back to him with even more anger.. I really am like wtf is wrong with us these days..

Is it just a case of everyone is right, and everyone is wrong? It really baffles me.

There's a world of difference between losing your temper and losing control, most lose thier temper on a regular basis, very few lose control, thankfully.

Yes, I suppose that's what I meant, I think I did say that on the first post, I suppose losing control would be going over the top for a trivial situation, and losing your temper would be justified?, like losing control feels like an action, where as losing your temper to a situation is a reaction.. Ha maybe who knows.

Not necessarily for a trivial situation though, for most to "lose control" would take a very high degree of provocation, and even then most individuals still wouldn't lose complete control, the consequences of thier actions would probably hit home before they did thankfully.
To lose control of your actions, in my opinion could end up with you doing jail time.

That is a very good point. Making a point is almost always more effective when you’re in control and don’t resort to ranting, raving and windmilling punches. And when you get to a certain age (I.e. ours) that sort of grandstanding and calling people out etc just makes someone look like a sad old man.

All truth be told. I am the kind of person who if I got jumped at a cashpoint and had no alternative other than to defend myself, and it turned out I hit the robber hard, I would still kick myself about it for days, that I should have handled it non violently.. And that's where I am at, they engrain it into from a young age, always stick up for yourself..

So I have realised, for the last few years that I just can't hit anybody, well it's more than the last few years, quite a lot in fact. I think it's purely if I had that mindset of actually wanting to harm somebody, I really would, but when push comes to shove, I just can't. I am a certain kind of idiot, that I don't want to really lose my temper, Because I know what the consequences may come..

You’re basically a nice bloke.
