Lol, those ppl creep me the gently caress out. I always assume I'll be blindsided eventually by some hidden insanity that's so hosed up they have to hide it. Then again in the same vein of things, it always seems weird to me when people have never gotten into a fight. Might be just how things are here, but I can't imagine having never gotten into a fight or even punched somebody. https://i.imgur.com/1qBoiAi.mp4

I just spent a few minutes trying to think of a worse version of SAForums... everything I thought of was pretty much just the internet. It's kinda crazy that you can learn about almost anything on here without it being a bunch of bullshit/useless comments. I avoid the more serious forums normally, I'm mostly here for the laughs, but I might actually just build searching the forums into a terminal command because I'll have better luck than on a normal search for knowledge or discussion than the rest of the inet. Obviously, I expect to be linked out at some point, but isn't that the general purpose of contributory posting?

So the hidden insanity in my case is that I'm probably a sociopath, I don't think I have any particular compunctions about murder or suicide or anything, I just also don't care strongly enough about things to actually do a murder. If there *was* something I cared strongly enough about to start a fight over, I wouldn't start a fight, I would do a poison or a car bomb or something, because what's the point in half-assing a remedy and putting yourself in danger, or looking like an idiot like the kids who attacked me when we were young. It's honestly quite a pleasant combination to live with, and has pretty good practical consequences, but the "nothing is good enough" is a bit tiring. |

I only hit somebody twice as an adult and once it was a proud boy type guy at a big public scuffle who had been grappling at me and once it was a guy who was cornering me and grabbing at my chest and crotch on the subway, who I shoved away. I felt so terrible about it even though obviously I don't like that kind of guy. I never know how to convey this without sounding like a really evil, petty person, but it made me as sad and pained to see blood coming out of a guy's nose and know "that's my fault" as it would have if I'd gotten punched myself or if I'd punched my grandma. In the aftermath it was less "I can't believe I got sexually harassed, what a creep" and more "I can't believe I hurt somebody." There are two big memories I have regular recurring nightmares about and one is getting assaulted at gunpoint and the other is this schlubby, sweaty guy looking at me with blood on his face looking betrayed that I could have elbowed him in the face, which I know is silly, he was there for a fight and to rough up people he thought wouldn't fight back, but on a deep and very wretched level of my psyche I still wish I'd just let him rough me up rather than remember that "why did you do this to me?" look. Of course I don't like people being in far-right groups, but I'm ashamed to say I think I like causing pain to people even less. I couldn't sleep for like a week and I felt guilty for both doing it and for feeling guilty. But in the aftermath I decided there are probably some people who are meant to fight and some people who are meant to help and I'm happy just being a helper. There were two times in my adult life by token where I got attacked and beaten up pretty badly and in each case the amount of pain and inconvenience and feelings of shame and powerlessness involved in getting better totally convinced me that I never want to make another human being feel like that. I totally understand that this is a flaw in my brain, and the product of growing up fairly pampered, spoiled, and rotten, but it would take a great amount of something to make my brain make the connection between "uh oh" and "I need to make a fist and chuck it."

Both of those sound completely reasonable times to hit someone to me. But I grew up where fights were a night in jail at most and most people were dicks. I've had people yank open a car door when I was sleeping and start yelling at me, my natural reaction was hitting them as hard as I could then getting out. But, I get it's something about how people grow up and where somewhat matters. Lol, maybe my life has been hosed up enough I don't understand not having a hosed up life. https://i.imgur.com/1qBoiAi.mp4

Both of these seem to fall within the range of completely normal human reactions. I've been informed recently about other, less commonly referred to stress reactions. It can be flight, fight, freeze, or even nurture. Apparently some people get incredibly caring when panicked. I have never hit anyone intentionally. I've been attacked 3 times, and each time it was a total surprise. I was speaking with someone, and they had an over the top reaction to whatever I said, with no apparent warning sign. Each time was confusing. Just me thinking "why?" and doing my best to dodge or deflect fists and kicks until they tired themselves out. From there, I've kind of arrived at the same perspective of why half measures? If I am forced to physically defend myself or family, I will, but hitting someone isn't likely to help anything. I put a lot more effort into watching out for where trouble might come from, and trying to steer clear. The time we had someone break into our house, I was faaaar more concerned for his well being than our own. Dude was bare rear end naked, walked through our front door at 8pm the day after Xmas. He started ranting random English words without sentence structure, and had no idea what to do with the blanket I handed him. Welp, time to shove this guy out the door, lock it, and poo poo, we better call 911. I had a very distinct thought of "I really hope he doesn't decide to come back in through the sliding glass door. I really don't want to have to hurt this guy" We were living on a fairly large rural property, miles from town too. Eta the happy ish ending is that he went away in the back of an ambulance, rather than a cop car. B33rChiller fucked around with this message at 17:36 on Jan 9, 2022

Oh yeah, I heard about those extra ones from a guy at my comic book store of all people, except he said "friend" instead of "nurture" for the alliteration. I am definitely a nurture type when it comes to arguments and simmering tensions, when I'm surprised by a physical fracas I think my instinct is "slink away gently" (in Philly I'd very very often see people spoiling for trouble and I'd usually just see the issue a few blocks away and go ah, I think I'll just take another route) or play along if that seems like the safest bet (if a guy with a gun wants the $5 I have in my picket, I dunno, go with god my dude and don't spend it all in one place).

I got into a lot of fights as a kid, mostly just bullying poo poo. A lot of shoving and tripping and wrestling though I would lose my poo poo and get violent. Which is what the other kids wanted really. My last fight was when I was 18 at the pizza place I worked at because I realized I could go to jail for this poo poo. That was over 20 years ago now. |

Thinking back on it, I got shot in the leg when I was young and I think that really put me in the mindset of "wow, getting hurt by somebody else really sucks." I'm also a tiny 5'3" shrimp lady with the upper body strength of a bowl of mapo tofu, my hypothetical brawling career was smothered in the cradle.

I think there is certainly a place for hitting another person, such as the scenario How Wonderful! described. I salute you being above this most primitive form of human interaction, but I think sometimes it is justifiable. VS that's a hell of a jam/video you made, thank you for putting this into my day.

Yeah, although my immediate family never had guns in the house, my mom strongly dislikes them. I got shot when I went camping with some relatives and one of the kids was being super irresponsible with a rifle which went off by mistake. It wasn't a serious injury but it was enough to make me not like the stupid things, and on the plus side that part of the family was permanently nice to me from then on out.

Womp posted:How Wonderful, I don't want to minimize anything you said at all, but you have to be American, right?? blessed are the peace makers or something - that's amazing getting to 20 in australia without a fight imo also How Wonderful you have nothing to be ashamed of, you're just a good and wholesome person and ilu friend  i ah... sadly cannot say the same, been in more physical fights than i care to remember. in my defense it was almost always in self defense, the few times it wasn't was beating the snot out of someone who'd harassed women. some of them were pretty bad fights, been stabbed a few times, had people smash beer bottles on my face and been attacked people with an iron bar and with a baseball bat on separate occasions - tbh mostly that was family members particularly my brother brains are weirdly wired in those situations - i think most people feel guilty because part of the brain doesn't gently caress around and just assigns responsibility to you even when it's not your fault because it's quicker. think that often contributes to ptsd. I can't say i feel guilty about most of the fights i've been in, maybe that's acclimatization or rationalizing it or maybe it's just the way i'm wired - it kinda worried me at times because there is some... I don't know... there's a certain "joy" in everything being reduced to the simplicity of violence and drawing blood from someone trying to hurt you or other people. kinda scary but then again I've never gone looking for fights and think they're loving stupid - where ever I could I talked my way out of them and I haven't seen my brother in a couple of years now cause i got sick of that kinda poo poo Sarah Cenia posted:sometimes people can push to the point where they've earned it i am wary of this logic because it kinda justifies people who choose not to control their anger hitting people because they were 'pushed' - seen that more times than someone legit being bullied until they snap and even then, while i don't have sympathy for the bully, it's still a poo poo response as opposed to walking away. imo the only time violence is really justified is self defense or defense of others - which includes punching nazis and similar |

there is weirdly something to the connective power of a scrap. one of my best friends marks the transition from acquaintance to true friend at the day we were snowball fighting in a backyard, and he smoked me in the face with a snowball and i responded by throwing a handful of fresh powder into his eyes and tackling him. there is something deeply instinctual about hashing things out in a wrassle, i think, to the point that even a fully peaceful world would have aggressive sports or media. we are mega monkeys with all sorts of cool toys but it doesn't alter the reality of our animal nature. we are gonna feed, gently caress and fight, but civilization is directing these instincts into productive, or at least non destructive ways but truly, Stoner Sloth posted:blessed are the peace makers or something i guess my stance is that pacifism rules as an ideal, but some folk don't have the benefit of turning the other cheek, and it's necessary to raise a fist for them. a big difficulty in combating violence is that no ethical argument can defeat the reality that winning a fight is extremely fun and satisfying. i miss lacrosse. i got to smash people with a stick and was praised for doing it well. what a hosed up sport.
