Worst thing you have broken via rage?

[BVP246]

i broke my TV once via rage

My toe (OH doesn't know). I round house kicked the bin in the kitchen and the sudden realisation that the bin was metal and I had no shoes on came too late.

Reason I kicked the bin in rage?I was doing some work in the kitchen and hurt my hand on a unit door.

Still, it took my mind off my sore hand, but the bin most definitely won.

Laptop. Threw it across the room. Since then I've tried to control my anger!

Apart from the time I put my arm through the wall when I was banging on it in an attempt to get my neighbours to stop their 3am band practice on a Tuesday night.

A beautiful (and expensive) ornament during an argument with my ex.

Nothing. I've never been in a rage, I barely ever get angry.

My favourite mug when annoyed with dd. I didn't aim at her but was soooo frustrated.

Hormonal rage at 12 years old, I threw my Walkman at the wall because it chewed up a cassette.

Not me, but my (toddler) son has managed to break 2 TVs in strops, we learnt by the first he was strong, by the second he has a really good aim.

Thankfully hasn't broken anything since and he now knows not to throw things

The glass of Several large framed posters that I took a baseball bat too.

In fairness my drunk DP of the time had attempted to hit me for the first time in a jealous rage because I'd been talking to an ex who I was still friends with. I remember totally losing it, wanting to smash HIM with the baseball bat so badly, but went for his beloved posters on the wall instead, I ended it with a very demonic laugh & 'try that again & it will be your skull next time"

Oh & my hand, punching the bed in rage after a row, forgetting heavy metal belt was. On the bed & I punched that, breaking bones in my hand

Upright Dyson vacuum cleaner. In my defence it totally deserved it, the stupid toppling bastard.

I dropped my son’s iPad into a sink full of washing up when he was an awful teenager and I couldn’t get him offline when he was doing his GCSEs.

Not proud of it, but it had an impact when absolutely nothing else had.

God, those years were hard.

Chucked a PlayStation out the bedroom window

Phew I'm glad other people do this too 😳

@ARoseDowntown that's sinister behaviour.

Smug? Much? @Waxonwaxoff0
You sound repressed to me.

When I developed antenatal depression and was suicidal and angry I broke so much stuff. Half I don’t even remember doing. The biggest thing was a wooden butchers block. I threw it onto the floor with all of my might and it shattered. It was very satisfying. It was a hugely horrible time though, I was not very well.

I didn't break anything as such but I did pelt my brother with button mushrooms once when he unjustly accused me of doing something I didn't do. Thankfully he survived

Does 'wind' count - immediately after 'snapping'?

😁

Put in the correct of this thread I feel I may finally understand, did she snap and shout? That makes so much more sense.

I broke my car key out of rage once. However, I think it's different because I was angry WITH the car key itself. I couldn't figure out how to open it to change the battery so I shoved a screwdriver in to force the compartment open, not realising there was a release button on the side of the key... The key ended up sellotaped back together.

I'm not a very ragey person but the key stopped working when I was trying to go somewhere at 5am in the freezing cold and it was the straw that broke the camel's back that day!

I smashed a phone once by bouncing it off the wall in temper and I broke my toe kicking a metal barrel filled with concrete while wearing high heels 🤣🤣 the latter was not my brightest idea !

Tell me the button Mushrooms were OK??!?

As someone who has been in an abusive relationship, some of these are pretty chilling, especially when it's not a one off and the things broken are not your own.

We all lose our temper sometimes. But when you break something when you're angry with someone, it is sending a really clear message that 'this is what I'd like to do to you'. And yes, the Relationships board is quite quick to call abuse, but actually Women's Aid and Relate would classify breaking shared or other people's property as abusive behaviour too.

If I remember correctly, this was clarified. The OP confirmed that "snapped and farted" was correct. She did this when angry. I can only assume the fart is a punishment for the person making her snap

I don't do this, except once, a beloved dog did unexpectedly and I was so upset and angry, I kicked a laundry basket that I'd left in the middle of the floor when I was looking through things at home for a way to carry her to the vet comfortably. It didn't make me feel better and I remember thinking it was an odd thing to do.

The best thing I have smashed is a plastic dust pan. Repeatedly bashed it against the top of the bin until it was in bits. It was immensely satisfying and I highly recommend it.
