Hulk Out Moments.

[RejjeN]

Hardly the most significant thing ever, but I've been farming for items in Terraria for a while now, trying to get some 1% drop items, first I end up with 5 1.5% drop items (that are super easy to get from another enemy), then when trying to get something else that drops at 1% I get 6 items that drop at 0.5 and 0.33%... ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? Things have been looking up recently though, so perhaps I shouldn't complain...

There are two things that pretty reliably make me crazy hulk even though they are things that shouldn't. One is touching my sketchbook without permission and the other is taking photos of me without asking first (this is surprising common). I feel like an asshole for that since physical violence for something like that even if they had been warned to stop is disproportionate but its a major berserk button for me.

The last hulk moment I think was when I bought a kindle and my father and brother immediately took it off me so they could set it up despite the fact that never asked nor wanted them to. I tried to be polite but just got ignored, I was less than polite but that got got ignored to so after about 1/2 hour of trying to get it back it turned into a massive fight. I was overeating and I know they were trying to help but "helping" someone is not completely ignoring them or treating them like a child who can't preform even simplest task and they always do this.

Edit: I lie, last hulk moment was at an exam when one of the exam minders wouldn't let us a use a calculator for a question because it didn't specifically say you could use one. She was wrong, you can use calculators unless it stated you can't. The only thing is that if its a scientific one you have to wipe the memory when you enter the exam. It was a fucking ecology exam, why would they not let us use a calculator? the math was only there to ensure you knew how to do carbon dating. She also gave us the wrong instruction, berated us for "not reading the instructions" when students tried to correct her or got confused when what she was telling us to do was the opposite of what the instruction on the paper was. Fortunately one the other minders corrected her after a few minutes. She was trying to explain herself about the calculator (which she never let us use) and instructions in the middle of the exam which has a time limit so I ended up telling her to shut the hell up. Fortunately I did not get kicked out or written up over that.

One thing that really pisses me off but I have so far been able to resist the the temptation to actually go at someone for is when people use the university computers for youtube, facebook, manga or anything other than actually working. It would be fine if there were more than enough computers to go around but there never is so they should GTFO and leave then for the people who actually have work to finish or need the printers.

...Life... Was not going my way, still isn't I guess, but I usually don't snap that hard.

The actual thing that made me lose it here was the realization that I'd forgotten to turn in a small 10 point homework assignment. Pretty dumb thing to lose it over, but it was one of those back breaking camel straw things XD

Wouldn't ever hurt anyone though.

My reciever broke so my subwoofer can't be turned lower than minimum volume. It hasn't been an issue until I got Hotline Miami with ps plus. It's bass is mastered ridiculously loud and makes playing the game feel like an assault on your brain. So when you get stuck on a level, the frustration of dying over and over gives way to furious anger.

BUT I CAN'T STOP PLAYING

Not sure if it's only me, but I can't feel the pedals under my feet in their cars(I do have huge feet though).

Yeah, I have that problem with some cars.

I have big feet and I usually wear hiking shoes or army boots (i.e. thick-soloed footwear). Also, I'm used to driving vehicles with fairly weighty controls. So when I get into one of those tiny bubble cars with feather-light fairy-foot pedals, I'm all over the place. Trying to do a handbrake start when you can't feel the pressure of the clutch or accelerator under your foot is nightmarish.

Hopefully clunky mechanical-feeling vehicles aren't on the way out; I have to drive my sister's car out of the way in the mornings so I can get to work some mornings, and the clutch is like a switch, either down or up, no in between. I don't know how you could drive something like that, especially not if safety boots are part of your uniform.

OT: I am so calm it disturbs me sometimes. Any expression of anger on my part has always been embarrassing and futile, so I stopped doing it because I'm not really taken to 'venting', because it doesn't really release any pressure.

Well you're going to need more then a quarter if you're gonna bribe the wall into fixing itself.

OT:
Once I almost went green only because this guy at my old high school school was being the most pompous asshole towards one of my friends, made her cry.
I had to try really REEEAAALLY hard to not "Hulk smash" him in the face. Luckily I didn't, he backed off as soon as others verbally attacked him for his obvious dickery.

A dumb reason was where I "I'm always angry"ed the power button on my ps3 when a hacker invaded and almost killed me in Dark Souls.

Other then that I'm very calm 98% of the time and a bundle of joy and happiness.

When someone talks as LOUD as they can on the bus. Especially if they are on the phone.

The last time I can remember being genuinely furious[footnote]At something that does't matter, I'm not counting the times I hulk out about heavy stuff.[/footnote] was during a particularly intense game of Mario Kart 7.

I was playing local co-op with some friends, and I was tied first in points by the last race. On the home stretch, I'm accelerating towards the finish line with everything I've got... When a message pops up and tells me I've had a communication error. I could only scream silently as my character putted to a stop only a few feet from the finish, where he sat as all 7 other racers passed him.

Now, normally I'm pretty good at dealing with loosing at games, but what set me off this time was how my friend reacted. Imagine the smuggest face and the most condescending tone of voice you can, and multiply it by 11, and you've got a pretty good idea of how this guy was acting. Despite all the other players acknowledging that I would have won if I hadn't received that error, this guy just responded with the smarmiest "no, you came 8th and you lost" he could muster. Compounding my fury was that he was the host, and I was the only person to be disconnected, leading me to suspect he'd somehow kicked me from the game (I know it's not possible to individually remove players from the group, but the fact that if I hadn't been kicked I would have beaten him made me enormously suspicious).

I'm usually a calm person. I show little emotion when I'm in public, and I don't socialise much in general.

However, I have completely lost it a few times in my life. Somebody had quite literally thrown a brick at me. I just stared at them for a second - they were about 17 - and they were laughing with their little **** friends. So I threw the brick back; hit him in the face, and he was bleeding profusely. I then picked up another brick, and the rest of ran away.

I felt like an asshole, because I had completely lost it. Still hilarious looking back on it though.

Another time? Some woman doing nothing about her screaming baby who was kicking my chair on a bus; it was late, and everybody was tired. I eventually lost it and just said, "Please, get your fucking baby under control." "WHAT DID YOU FACKING SAY? I WILL RAISE MY KIDS HOW I FACKING WANT, YOU HEAR ME, YOU FUCKING OUTRAGEOUS-" She got pretty pissed and got off the bus. Into the middle of nowhere. Ah, Britain, your people are comparable to walking moluscs.

I've only done this once when playing a game: Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call.

Matador raised his speed to the maximum amount, I don't hit him for about 6 turns. He only hits me once in those 6 turns.
He wiped out my entire party, all of whom were at full health, with doubled defense.

Forget the story itself, I want to know how Mr Brickface explained his face to his parents.

Sitting in a classroom with people with nothing to talk about but jersey shore and pop stars then complaining about my injured thumb which had swollen enough to not let me use a pencil. I quietly yelled at her to shut up then she began muttering to her friends about my reaction. What are those kind of people called again? That was the last one of the top my head.

Nah, It's a total slut. It'll do anything for money

But yeah, I still need to figure out how to fix it. It's probably too much for spackle, hopefully not, but maybe :/

My last hulk out moment was 2 years ago, when I was working on a game dev studio. I was modeling a 3D level section for a racing game and our schedule was very tight. I was sleeping very little, working long hours everyday and suddenly, the modeling software froze. When I started it again, my source file was corrupted and I didn't had made my usual backups because... I don't know, I was working like crazy and forgot to make backups. I tried to recover the file, but nothing worked and I started to get desperate... I didn't have time to start everything from scratch, I was doomed. I snapped and started screaming profanities and slammed my mouse on my desk really, really hard, like... raising it to the skies, than slamming on the desk, making a spectacle of myself. Everybody stopped working to see what was happening.

I rushed to the kitchen to calm down, drank some water... then I came back. In 10 minutes, I managed to recover the file importing the assets I had exported earlier for tests, with minimum losses. Your brain works much better when you're not in a fit of rage. And boy, those Dell mice are sturdy.

My last hulk out was a couple months ago on my birthday. I'd rather not talk about that though because it was over something completely pointless and inoffensive. I just got angry out of nowhere.

The time before that though was bad and slightly more justifiable. I was having a bad day in a bad week and I get a call or a text from my aunt (I don't even remember, it was a couple years ago) saying that she felt I never contributed to the family when I lived with them and that I was basically a spoiled parasite.

She told me this as I was standing in the house I built.
The house I built over the last few months of my Junior or senior year of high school and my entire summer.
12 hour days weekends and non-school days, 8 - 11 on school days.
Every day.
Why did I do that? Because she and her husband told me I had to.

So she told me I never contributed and was a leech when I spent every day I had for months working for free because they told me so.

I got really angry, punched a hole in my wall, screamed and blacked out for a little bit.
When I came to half of my possessions were destroyed and I had lost my voice from screaming so much.

Well, my last "Hulk" moment (i´ve had a few) was when me and a few friends where just driving around town (or as we Swedes call it "Bögkörde")And I see this group of guys, lets say 5-6 standing around this one guy on the ground, hitting and kicking him. I had my seat belt of and was out of the car in less than 2 seconds, pretty much running towards them screaming "What the hell do you think you´re doing" (in Swedish of course). By the time i got to the guy on the ground, those guys where running for their lives. Lucky me they ran....I´m a big guy and I can handle myself in a fight, but since I was the only one who had the balls to leave the car and confront them, it would have been me vs those 5-6 guys...

Was a black guy getting beaten up by some racist assholes, pretty much saved his life by the looks of it.

 

[FPLOON]

Well, as much as I want to get into details, I still don't feel comfortable talking about this particular hulk out moment... so, I'll just say that there was a little disagreement between me and my neighbor, which involved what they said about my mother (without a hint of joking/sarcasm), about me personally, and even what their two dogs thought of me whenever they saw me walk passed their place on a daily basis... Long story short, I punched them in the face (I have a temper resembling my deceased father, my mom always tells me), a fight broke out ("defense", my ass), police were called (but never came), and the next day, whatever's been happening beforehand resumed like that day never happened...

It was both a weird, yet one of my most hated weeks... this year... (If I had enough money, I would have moved out of where I currently live right now a few years ago...)
