No. Wth no. I have never thought of killing someone or pushing them down the stairs or pouring bacteria down their clothes. What the hell? That is not normal.

Just because YOU'VE never done it doesn't mean it's not normal.

da

Whether "normal" or not, it's bad and unhealthy thinking. It's not "okay" just because many people do it.

Thank you, Dr. Anon. I'm sure you're an expert in what makes certain sorts of thinking "bad and unhealthy," from a legitimate medical perspective.

and thank you, edgy!anon who is trying to normalize fantasies about violently murdering people you hate. I'm sure those fantasies never lead to action in the history of the world, and that we should totally be encouraging people to continue having violent thoughts because it's ~normal~ for mature adults to have.

You're quite welcome, judgey!anon who thinks that well-adjusted adults can't tell the difference between escapist fantasy and the prelude to a murder spree, and that shaming people for the harmless thoughts that go on inside their heads (as opposed to their actual actions) has ever had a positive effect of any kind.

Jesus christ, seriously. O_o

lmao @ this. negative, violent thinking is negative, violent thinking. and it isn't my moral obligation nor intent to ~have a positive effect~ on OP. yes, I think if you get pleasure and satisfaction out of imagining a real person being murdered, you've got problems. and need to, like, get a hobby.

The fact that you think you have any basis to judge OP or anyone else for their coping mechanisms is fucking hilarious, as is the fact that you say "negative and violent" like it means "evil and psychologically damaged." Apparently you think that anyone who doesn't blow rainbows out their ass 24/7 is a sociopath in the making. You're adorable.

I'd like links to some kind of research that proves this is unhealthy, because personally I'd say it's one of the more harmless ways to vent one's anger. As long as you're not wishing death on everyone who accidentally bumps into you, and as long as you're not ACTUALLY harming anyone, I don't see what the problem is.

I tend to react this way if I'm feeling both angry and powerless. If I can't ACTUALLY do anything to get out of whatever situation I'm in, I fantasize about revenge until I calm down. In situations where I have enough power to actually get myself away from whoever I'm angry at, I just remove myself from the situation before I feel that need to lash out.

It's the same as imaging that person you hate as the boss in a video game and gleefully tearing them apart with weaponry or your character's own hands.

Jeez, this person must be a fucking saint if they haven't ever done this. A judgmental as fuck saint.

I like to think that being a judgmental fuckstick precludes the possibility of sainthood. But apparently there's something ~*~wrong~*~ with me, so what do I know?

How dare we judge murder fantasies.

How dare we.

Keyword here being "fantasies." Not "things they're actually going to do in reality." I mean, if judging people for harmless thoughts is how you get your rocks off, more power to you, but it really sounds like you need to get a hobby.

hope you die!

A question you should ask yourself unironically, I think. This is fandom, where we have fucked up fantasies all the time and sometimes even write them out and draw pictures of them. If you were hoping for a place where people would not talk about the strange and sometimes horrifying fantasies that they sometimes have, you are going to be disappointed.

I suppose you barge in to judge people for those too, though, so nevermind.

Well, actually, there's some solid research behind the idea that "venting" anger isn't actually cathartic or useful or harmless--it really just perpetuates the anger and negativity.

Yes and just because you or OP have done it doesn't make it normal either.

No; the fact that it's normal makes it normal. But don't let that stop you from the hilarious fun of diagnosing people over the internet, or whatever makes your skirt fly up.

I don't wear skirts and I haven't diagnosed anyone. You must have me confused with a different anon.

But I do find it funny when people try to argue "just because you and a bunch of people don't experience this doesn't mean it's not normal. I and a bunch of people do experience it so it's normal."

So what you're saying is that there was no actual point to your comment. Okay then, carry on.

More that there was no point to the other anons replying to me, but your way works too. There's really not much point to this entire "conversation" but I"m finding it amusing how upset and defensive people are getting about their murderous intent.

Most people don't like being told they're sick and wrong over harmless coping mechanisms that have literally no effect on anyone else?

Uhhh in this case it's not "I and a bunch of people do this therefore it is normal"; it's "I and a bunch of other people do this AND CAUSED NO HARM TO ANYONE OR OURSELVES therefore it's normal." Although "a bunch of people do this" is pretty much the definition of the word normal anyway, so...
