My kids sometimes like to watch compilations of “fail” videos. The sheer number of clips involving adult-age males either punching or ripping their televisions off the wall as a result of a sports (or video game) outcome amazes me (but probably shouldn’t). I always tell me kids (especially my daughter) that if they ever see someone do this, they need to leave immediately and not have any kind of interactions with this person. If they’re willing to beat the hell out of a television, they’ll do the same to you.
I’ve launched a few controllers in my day. But that day was when I was like 15 and I was an emotionally volatile little shit who still needed to learn to manage his emotions. Can’t believe that we have dudes who never grew out of this phase, only doubling down, running around acting like they’re the superior sex.
