Do any of you all get those brief psychotic thoughts?

You know, when a person is being really stupid/annoying and you think about how you could kill them with a shovel, transport them in a plastic bag in the trunk of your car, drag them out the woods, and bury them.

It flashes through your mind in an instant before it's dismissed.

Do any of you get those, and what is likely to cause it?

I get those, except they're worse because I get them for no reason; it doesn't take an annoying person to trigger them

Well, I'm in this strait-jacket for a reason, I suppose...

;)

I get those, except they're worse because I get them for no reason; it doesn't take an annoying person to trigger them

But does the whole crime come into your mind, or just the original murder?

EDIT: I mean, do you think about the cover-up.

Sure...sometimes I picture kicking someone down a flight of stairs. It'd be soooo easy. Or beaning them in the back of the head...with a can of beans.

I mostly keep myself in check.

Sometimes.

... Do any of you get those, and what is likely to cause it?

No, I tend to start thinking about it only after I dispose of the bodies.

Oh, frequently.

I'll be driving along (freeway speeds), my daughter in the passenger seat, spouting off her opinions about everything from the bovine nature of most pedestrians, to the palpable idiocy of certain members of the family, to the general nastiness of people in general - with specifics - all while pushing the buttons on the radio because she doesn't like what's playing. I'll have this sudden urge to reach over, open the door, release her seatbelt and push her out the door.

I think the most likely cause is that other people are assholes. Maybe I should invest in an industrial wood chipper.

Fixed for Rambhutan's wood chipper. :D

Do any of you all get those brief psychotic thoughts?All the time. I also imagine enjoying it quite a bit.

I am not sure if that's a bad thing, or not. o_0;

Just "mostly?" ;)

So, LG, do you have brief, psychotic, murderous urges? The audience wants to know.

thought about it during school alot.

Killing the kid sitting infront of me.

Most efficient way of doing it with a knife.

How I'd kill myself afterwards.

Then what the news would say.

Fun stuff

Yeah, they usually involve the Waltz of the Flowers in one way or another.

I don't get them, any kind of confrontation and I start feeling like a big puppy dog.

Oh, I have thought of purging the gene pool of certain individuals on more than one occasion.

You wiggle your butt and piddle on the floor?

Do any of you get those, and what is likely to cause it?

Not just annoyance, but also boredom.

Once I start, I usually go through a plethora of increasingly unlikely scenarios... From me decapitating them with a shovel, to a time-travelling zombie SS-Squad materialising and gunning them down before devouring the remains.

Unfortunately the wistful look of pleasure and concentration on my face is often taken for enthusiasm by the person in question.

You wiggle your butt and piddle on the floor?

Probably

You wiggle your butt and piddle on the floor?

I shit in their slippers. ;)

Sometimes have the urge to walk into a islamic centre and waste every raghead vermin there then lock the doors and set it on fire and let them burn.

cool story bro

I get them unprovoked as well. Like I'll be in a conversation in a formal or professional setting or something and I'll get this overwhelming urge to knock over the table or throw something through a window. Or I'm talking to someone and suddenly want to walk away without saying a word. Or I'm making small talk and I'll suddenly just want to start yelling obscenities or punch the person in the face. I think it's always tied to a curiosity, but the imagined results of those impulses never appeal to me, like the urge is never accompanied by, "That'd be awesome," but rather, "Fuck that would be awkward," or "That would be fucked up." To be perfectly honest, I've been disturbed by them in a 'this isn't okay' kind of way. Never acted on them.

I'm pretty much the same. Sometimes, I get the urge to jump in front of trains; not suicidally, and I never ever ever seriously consider it, but the thought likes to pop into my head.

Yeah, how does that work?

Why would you go into a building, lock the doors and then set it on fire with yourself still inside?

Oh yes. I had one of those urges on a train once. I suddenly got so very angry I nearly punched the window. Had thoughts of smashing a guys face into the floor (really didn't like that guy) and then taking a baseball bat to car mirrors.

Eventually the responsible part of my mind caught up with the crazy part and remembered that strange consept of law and punishment, and I brought my fantasies down to destroying dollar store chinese made glass trinkets.

Beautiful Suicides.

I've also had the good notion or two to go on a bloody, pointless, violent rampage. Oh, and just people in general. I love Post Apocalyptic scenarios/books/movies for a reason.

To save us the suffering?

Yeah, how does that work?

I dunno, sometimes the thought just pops into my head, like my mind is daring me.

I have a few friends with that as well, we call it Third Rail Romance because we've all stood on the BART platform and thought about jumping down and grabbing the electric third rail with both hands. Or my friend's urge to start driving in the oncoming lane. Much more benign my friend has to fight the urge to hurl his glasses into the ocean any time he's near it (he'd be pretty much helpless without them) (a companion to that is if I'm with our other friend I have the urge to throw him in, he's afraid of the ocean).

And like you said, we're not suicidal. None of us want to 'end it' nor feel any 'poetry' about the act, it's really just an unprovoked urge.

To save us the suffering?

He didn't really strike me as the caring type, I was putting it down more to poor planning skills.

I frequently have these. Methods of killing that I have imagined include chainsaw, explosive piano, harpoon, explosive chicken soup, and spontaneous micro-black hole creation.

I won't tell you where the bodies are buried, if that's what you're asking. :tongue:

Galloism wants to hear who has drawn your ire.

Do any of you get those, and what is likely to cause it?

Yes, they are triggered by taunts from children and adults who fail to make any sense and just act like total douchebags. It usually involves me becoming lightheaded and my vision blurring for an instant, and my hands and head become violent and almost possessed with energy. During these attacks I usually think "I should smash his head against the Wall" first followed with the other things I'd do.

Erm, it depends. Is figuring out how to kill everyone in the room, without the urge to actually do so, psychotic? If so, very often.

I have thought about killing before, sure. Never in anger, though.

Ahh, good old, cold, calculated killing! Much better than a messy murderous rage!

:D

I'm reminded of that Biblical prophet, I forget his name, but he gave in to one of his brief psychotic urges, and as a result several children were torn to death by bears. Maybe God supports brief psychotic urges. Maybe he/she/it wants us to give in to them. Maybe the world would be better (or at least less populated) if we gave in to them.

Damn, we need a maniacal smiley here.

It is, more or less, my job to talk to people who are really stupid/annoying.

What's more, these people have all given me their names, addresses, and social security numbers.

Of course I am tempted to do all sorts of horrible things too them. And not even random acts of violence. I could fly down to Mexico, track down a Coyote and sell him enough information to set up, literally, a thousand illegal immigrants with valid identities. I would make a nice chunk of change and make the lives of those who annoy me a living hell.

But I don't. :(

This.^^ I used to have a boss who was so extremely annoying that I actually would feel a sudden sharp stabbing pain through my temple every time he walked past my desk. Whatever side of me he was on, that was the side that got the stab.

I used to daydream several times a day about killing him with an axe, a shotgun, or a baseball bat. I never envisioned cleaning up after the crime or getting away with it. Just revelling in his gory demise and then going about my business. The level of gore in my daydreams corresponded to how annoying he was being that day.

Strangely, I really liked the guy, socially. But to work with -- he earned a baseball bat to the skull at least three times a day.

Brief? Not really. I prefer to let those urges fester into a homicidal mania.

You mean like when I've been working on physics homework for 6 hours for the second night in a row and it's Saturday and my roommates have been watching Disney movies at loud volumes all day long? Then after the "brief psychotic urge", I wonder what kind of major they have that they don't have to do homework all weekend like I do, and wonder why I'm doing mine instead of theirs. ;)

Then I remember: 1) I find mine a lot more interesting. 2) I'll probably be making more money than them.

Ahh, good old, cold, calculated killing! Much better than a messy murderous rage!

:D

Yes, much. I never really become "killing angry", though I have thought about the possible benefits one death might confer--then I thought about the law, and I changed my mind. :$ Maybe anarchy is not so bad, after all.

Actually, there is one legal way to kill, and that is the the military. At MEPS I met one damned intelligent fellow who could have held a great job, but entered the infantry just so he could legally kill.

Brief psychotic urges? Nope. Mine usually dress in boxers.

yeah a lot of the times i get the urge to hit/stab or shot someone i am talking to for no reason at all. even if they are my friends.
I haven't pulled out my 9mm yet.

Nope. Life lesson. Those people become your boss. Stay in school. Computers is the way to go.

When they come over and say we need a new SQL database you ask them what color would they like that?


Anyone else a fan of Bastard Operator from Hell?

I especially like the one where he gets the bank clerks password.

I view it as an art form. You have to make it look like an accident.


A razor blade

One desk lamp

A pool of water

Empty contents just beneath his or her feet or desk chair allow a certain amount of time for the carpet to absorb excess water

A small incision in the electric cord while unplugged, slightly nicking the conductors to expose bare copper, not too visible. Left unplugged

Remove one of the florescent lights from the ballast above. Which causes dim light in the office.

Usually this is best in an open office with windows for everyone viewing pleasure.


This is usually when sanity returns.

I get these feeling all the time. Stupid retail staff, Shitty people who offer crap customer service, general idiots, slow walking people who know you are in a hurry, when I was working in sales having to deal with dick head customers (at least if I wanted to I could walk away), just people really when they do stupd obvious things or say something stupid, shitty bouncers who kick you out cause a pair of tits told them to

And now Galloism for getting me riled up :p

I'm studying chemical engineering. I'm not sure what they're studying now because they keep switching, but it probably doesn't make as much right out of school as the chem engineering starting salary averages I've seen...and I don't understand how they have time to go out partying until 4 am and watching movies all day and then occasionally doing homework... is that seriously more normal than staying up until 2 or 3 doing homework Friday and Saturday nights and that kind of thing because there's really no other way to get all of the work done in time? That's normal to me and pretty much has been for a while.

I think about driving through the car in front of me. Or over pedestrians. Old ladies that move really slowly. I also think of smashing people's faces in with a baseball bat. I haven't done any of that yet, so I think it's okay.

Thoughts of committing crimes may cross my mind sometimes, and my imagination, being very active, may run with it for a while. But I have no real, sincere desire to actually act on it, nor do I seriously plan or prepare.

Mother. Of. The. Fucking. Year.
I won't tell you where the bodies are buried, if that's what you're asking. :tongue:

"Nyahnyahnyahnyah nyah nyah! I made you eat your parents! Nyahnyahnyahnyah nyah nyah!"

I get images of pulling out a gun then going *BLAM!* right in the person's face...then it turns into a Jason Bourne-esque day dream of me running away and killing faceless thugs. Until I get superpowers and then it starts getting really bizarre.

I had a surprising amount of them when I was doing my undergrad. I'd be sitting in a lecture hall fantasizing about who in the class I'd shoot. Or going up to the party-prone apartment above mine and beating them all to death with a baseball bat (usually at the height of the essay season). It was only reading through this thread that I realized I haven't actually had one of those since I graduated.

I do have the occasional daydream about my boss being in a fatal car accident, but I'm never the cause.

I am fairly certain that I will be arrested at some point in the future for homicide as a result of road rage...or I'll die of a heart attack induced by road rage.

...hopefully the event itself will be odd enough to warrant a "news" thread on NSG, so that everyone here can have a good laugh at my expense. :tongue:

o.0...just in case, if you happen to be stuck behind a red and white VW Bus just honk, I'll let you by, I swear...

I haven't done it! Yet...

I remember when I was, like, maybe 7 or 8, I was riding my bike while my dad jogged, and I had the sudden urge to run him over. With my kid-sized bike. I told him that, and that he should probably stay on the sidewalk, and I have never heard the end of it. It's always, "Remember when [Ryadn] wanted to run you over with her bike?" and "Remember when [Ryadn] wanted to crucify the dog in the front yard?" :rolleyes:

It's the quiet ones that are the truly terrifying ones. It's our calm demeanour that allows us to observe and decide. When action is taken, you know. What draws our ire? It could be anything...

Urge to kill rising......

I get them occassionally. I think our primitive side wants to get some attention...

I am fairly certain that I will be arrested at some point in the future for homicide as a result of road rage...
My obsessive thought when another driver is being an asshole is to poke his eyes out with a pen, to make sure he'll never drive again. I don't know why I can't obsessively think about killing the asshole, like a normal person.

Or beaning them in the back of the head...with a can of beans.

That would be hilariously ironic.

Briefly... I have thought about drowning people that annoy me.
