Acts of controlled rage

    OP, what you displayed was not controlled rage.
    What you displayed was being a soft touch and then extreme passive agressive behaviour.


    You're the kind of person who hits themself in the face when they're angry at other people.

    I don't get where the controlled rage is?

    At what point did you show any rage?

    A junkie asked you to do something and you bent over and did it with dirty hands...where is the rage??

    I'm really fcuking lost here..please enlightened me..

    Was in the shop during my break yesterday and was walking up to the counter when this very rough looking girl in an addidas tracksuit and hoopy earrings asked me to get her a spoon. Now, I just should have said no, flat out but I was taken aback. So I went and picked up the spoon, the spoon was the other side of the shop by the deli. It was out of my way. I'm not the type of person to make a smart comment...I just hate making a scene...but this was kinda eating me up that I just had to do something to get back at her in my own way. I was so annoyed so much she asked me in the first place and I actually did like a tool.

    ...so I licked her spoon and rubbed it with my unwashed fingers as I was walking back to her. I handed it to her with a smile. :o

    So...stupid story I guess...but have you ever done something similar where you controlled your rage and got back at someone in your own way?

    Question: would you have done the same if a gorgeous blonde with a great figure and wearing a stunning dress bought straight from one of the great fashion houses in Paris had come up to you and asked you for a spoon yesterday in the store?

    Sorry to tell you this but doing that is something I would expect from a scumbag and I am not exaggerating for effect. If I was in that shop and saw a guy lick a spoon and hand it over to a girl my automatic reaction would be "what a cúnt" and it wouldn't matter a jot to me which of the two was wearing the rough looking tracksuit and which was dressed respectfully.

    I believe this behaviour is derived from the Paul Gogarty School of Controlled Rage

    Why didn't you just say "no"? . Are you some sort of submissive type who likes being told what to do but is also ashamed of it?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,289 ✭✭✭ebixa82


    I've read it again and still don't get the point..

    OP you seem to me to be a bit of muppet..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭sponsoredwalk


    Let me get this straight:

    Person asks for spoon.

    You feel angry & embarrassed because this person asked you for spoon.

    Because you feel angry & embarassed (ashamed) you act, like any man,
    & get revenge (:confused:) for someone asking for a spoon by licking the spoon they
    asked for.

    And sharing this info for sympathy from internet strangers is normal to you.

    Am I the only one who thinks this is a clear cut case of a future mental
    problem?

    When I saw the thread title first I thought of this..





    But after reading the thread op I think you need to drink a nice tall glass of man the fcuk up:rolleyes:.

    1) Fetch spoon for skanger
    2) Self Loathing = lick spoon
    3) Look for kudos on After Hours
    4) ????
    5) PROFIT!!!

    She wanted the spoon to burn her smack on. You should have just said no or ignored her. Or given her a plastic spoon.

    Finally, someone gets it. OP thinks a lick is going to prevent that? :pac:

    I understand but learn from it and next time just reply "No"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated


    Yeah...I'm with everyone else here.

    You got annoyed because she asked you for a spoon? What would have done if she if called you a wanker?

    And then licking the spoon before you gave it to her? I know which one is a dirty scummer, and it's not the one in the tracksuit.

    I was walking to the counter with my lunch and she approached me. I do not work at this shop. I had to walk from the counter and all the way over the other side of the shop for a spoon. Whats not to be enraged by that? :mad:

    Jesus. What happens when your gf/wife asks you to pass the salt? One sadistic beating for yes, two sadistic beatings for no?

    Very stupid story.

    If it were a girl wearing jeans and a nice River Island top without hoop earrings would you have done that to the spoon? :confused:

    You sound like a asshole tbf.

    You could have just said "Sorry, i dont work here".

    Grow some balls ffs.

    Should have told her to get her own fcuking spoon.

    What confuses me is that the spoon was on the floor and you licked it?? God knows what kind of bacteria was on that floor and you licked it? ever heard of HYGIENE?

    I don't actually think anyone else has a story quite as mental as yours, it makes no sense whatsoever.

    lmao, well close this rubbish thread then, Mods.







    ....please. :P

    I think what Dean meant to say was that he was annoyed about being ordered about by an apparent scumbag and didn't have the stones to say no for fear of being shouted at / embarrassed by said scumbag, so he did what she said but got 'his own back on her' by violating the spoon.

    I too hate little scumbags. The amount of time they ask for a euro. 'Can I have a euro' in their horrible put on scumbag accents. No! Why would I give you my money, why??? :confused: :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,533 ✭✭✭SV

    OP is getting humiliated.
    This is joyful.
