My sister's husband has a horrible temper. About 4 years ago he literally tried to pick a fist fight with me. I am not trying to brag here, this is roughly like a yapping poodle going after a rottweiler. He isn't 5'6" and he's way out of shape. My sister could whip him and she isn't 5'5".jubal;4133235 said:Nailed my thinking to a tee.
Found out at a early age I go from happy go lucky to killing mode.
I also realized I didn,t like wallowing in the dirt getting my Good clothes torn up . Or skinning knees and elbows on the pavement.
Was it Cash that had the song " I'm THE WINNER." ?

So he charged at me and I pushed him in the chest with both hands about like I used to hit blocking sleds in drills. He flew across the kitchen, wiped out the table and 3 chairs.
He then called the Police on me. One cop was talking to me, one to him. Cop asked me who started the fight I said, "he did." He asked who my sister was going to agree with and I said, "Me, she isn't going to lie for him or me."
I was right, she told exactly the truth. So the cop asked him why he lunged at me and he said, "I've got a really bad temper."
The cop put a hand on his shoulder and said, "Does it have to disengage your brain? I'm wearing a gun and I wouldn't want to fight that guy."
He took himself to the VA hospital and for several days he winced every time he tried to sit down. My sister had no sympathy. Every time he did she said, "You can't fix stupid."
Many years ago, I was him. I let my rage control everything and I reveled in the fact that because I am a big guy people were afraid of me. I wasted a lot of my life living that way, thinking that way, and acting that way. It took the death of my son to change me. What a horrible way to learn about what is really important in life.
You'd think after In-N-Out messed up your order so many times you would have beat the whole store up.Rynie;4134748 said:I have a point...it takes a lot to get me there...but once I'm there, i have absolutely NO CONTROL over my emotions.
Back in May, a buddy and myself went down to San Antonio. We got into an argument. He said the WRONG THING to me, and I went CRAZY. I beat the **** out of him. His eyes were black, both lips busted, and his ear was even messed up. That's the only fight I've been in 15yrs.
I get more angry when people mess with my friends/loved ones. Two weeks ago, a guy got all mad because my girl got in front of him on the highway. She didn't even cut him off, well above 20ft in front of him. He cuts her off, and only misses her vehicle by an inch. Then, he slammed on the brakes in front of her, almost causing a wreck. I was HEATED. I said "follow that ************!!!" We start following him..I'm hanging out the window motioning for him to pull over. I was ready to FIGHT. At this point, I was completely UNAWARE of any consequences (gun, police, etc), i just wanted to **** THAT GUY UP. He got all scared, and took off. We followed him to his house, but I wasn't prepared to do anything at his house. I would be asking for a shooting at that point.
The moral of the story? Don't **** with my peeps!
