I smash stuff

I smash stuff when I'm angry. I used to smash small stuff with a small hammer, but now I have a 10LB sledge hammer. I get stuff like old computers, printers, scanners, etc from the dump and bring them home to destroy. I invite some friends over to smash too and some of my friends' parents didn't mind. However one of them sort-of did and was gossiping to another parent about the fact that I smash stuff. Now that other parent's friend isn't supposed to be friends with me. I'm just wondering whether destroying stuff is as bad as they make it seem.

    Smash away! I don't see anything wrong with it. As long as you wear protective eye gear and I would recomend long sleeved shirts and jeans with some good boots! Gloves for clean up and away you go. If the parents of other kids don't like it thats just something you have to deal with. It would be the same way if you raised snakes or spiders as a hobby. Some parents wouldn't like it and they would tell there kids to stay away from you.

    its a really good idea as it doesn't hurt other people which is what a lot of people do with their frustrations... However it is not likely to be perceived as normal...

    I don't know why, but I imagined you as Super Mario xD
    but yes, as long as you don't smash your friends, it's normal

    Me and my mates used to do it often when we were younger, used to smash shit like get a hammer and smash up toys/toy cars and stuff, also used to set them on fire, whenever there was TV's etc dumped on the wasteland near my house we would smash them up with a sledge hammer, I don't see what's so weird about it, perfectly normal imo.

  • Sounds like fun, but if I saw someone doing that, I would get scared. Haha.

    your smashing stuff doesn't sound normal at all. i used to throw stuff or knock things to the ground when my family really pissed me off and were really making me angry. but i never intentionally bought old junk so i could smash it.... with a tiny hammer??
    thats wierd....

    put it this way some kids like to smoke weed others like to drink and the vast majority does both. LOOK instead of fucking around your gathering old shit and tearing it up fuck i mean if thats bad then that parent can go drink her tea and feed her pet fish she sounds like an uptight bitch

    I used to throw things, ugh...a broken window, and shoe polish splattered walls to show for it. smh.
    Pretty normal, I guess...maybe one day you'll be able to control your anger.

      way better feeling to use your fists and legs

    as long as you're not hurting anyone, or stealing people's things to smash, it's perfectly ok. i mean, who hasn't wanted to use a wrecking ball on a building? who doesn't enjoy popping those little packing bubbles?

    just use safety glasses and whatnot.

    Your probably just letting out your anger. Smashing stuff sometimes makes you feel better

    it's okay as long as you don't smash living things or other people's stuff. my suggestion if this turns to a problem is learn how to play an instrument. sometimes it gives and releases more powerful feelings than smashing.

    There are companies in Oriental countries such as Japan and Korea where frustrated, work-stressed people can go, pay a fee and smash things. You know, old PCs, screens, TVs and other assorted bric a brac. Very therapeutic apparently.

    I went through a phase like this once. My girlfriend's brother always used to bring home random junk for him and I to smash together, throw eachother into, etc. We even went so far as to make our own smashing tools. My choice? A baseball bat with nails driven into it. His choice? An aluminum baseball bat. Friends of ours would even ask us to destroy stuff in their house to get rid of it/get it out of the way.

    Cleanup was a bitch though.

    All in all, it's just harmless fun. We never did it out of anger, mostly boredom. Here's a helpful tint. Be wary of smashing tvs, especially older sets. They tend to explode and throw glass everywhere, I caught a glass shard in the arm because of a stupid tv we smashed.

    I smash stuff in my room.
    but not with a sledgehammer, lol.
    but it isn't that bad, as long as no one is getting hurt.

  • Well, i guess the smashing thing works for you pretty well, and it releases your anger lol. But, if it is causing some parents telling their kids not to be friends with you, then you might want to stop, so that you can become friends with them again. You shouldn't keep doing it if you want your friends back.

    Man, that must really suck if the other people's parents won't let you guys be friends over smashing lol. So yeah, maybe it is not causing harm to property and other people harm, but I would stop, if the whole smashing objects is going that far...

  • You are smashing old stuff and enjoying it with your friends so no harm done but you should learn to control your temper and lose the urge to smash things. I like the 10LB sledgehammer LOL
