I sometimes think/plot ways to kill people?

56% Normal
17 Comments

Firstly I want to say that I am not a violent person by any means, no matter how mad I get. And these thoughts are purely thoughts and never acted on. But sometimes, when people either piss me off, make fun of me, or offend me (or cause me to feel bad or annoyed, even jokely) then I will calmly deal with it while in my head I play out multiple scenarios of me killing them or hurting them, in detail, and how I could get away with it and which way would be the best approach. I know it's crazy, but... is it normal? Don't people naturally have these urges?

I would never ever act on these urges. They are purely thought.

    No it's not normal. I'm a firm believer in stifling and bottling up any feelings of sadness. madness and anger until one day you just blow naturally and organically but always after i've left what i call the "Bermuda triangle" which is the triangulated spot of equal distance between the crack house, the liquor store and the gun shop.

    Just remember the old saying, "A bottled up psychotic episode makes everyone safe in a 500 metre vicinity.

    Good luck and don't forget to let us know how these feelings escalate in the future so we can watch the news.

    I'm sure you're not the only one who has these fantasies and knows not to act them out. I wouldn't go telling this around, though, if I were you because people might get the wrong idea.

    The buddists say to visualize what you want to have happen in your life. There is truth to this. The power of the mind. When you visualize it, you could actually be provoking it to happen.

      Just because Buddists said it doesn't make it true, they don't know everything.

      So your saying if he imagines people dying there's a chance they might actually die?

        well not necessarily, but when you visualize something over and over like that, you tiptoe more and more to that becoming reality. Google it.

          Googling something doesn't make it real...I'm sure I'd get a few hits if I googled "Sasquatches raping unicorns," but EVERYONE knows Sasquatches would never do that, never.

            it's a buddist philosophy. Don't be so closed minded into thinking that only you have all the answers and every other culture believe fiction.

              Hey, I didn't mean to be rude. My apologies.

              I actually wasn't mocking the philosophy of Buddhism; I was mocking the philosophy of googling- internet is full of random crap and people who believe in slenderman. I actually studied Buddhism and Buddhist art quite extensively back when I was an art history major- it's a lovely perspective on the universe.

        I think he means something along the lines of this:

        Picture someone who calls themselves worthless, stupid, (insert any other negative adjective here.

        If they call themselves stupid (or any of the other options), they're more likely to think that of themselves.

        If I think about killing Mister Example all the time, it's probably going to become almost a thing of addiction or habit. If I constantly think about killing him, I am more likely to do so simply because it is a desire of mine. I almost see it as a sort of self-brainwashing, personally.

        A more everyman type example would be this. I think about eating the leftover hot wings all day at work. When I get home, I'm probably gonna eat the hot wings, yes?

        Just my two cents on it.

    I'm with you OP, I love a good serial killer fantasy.

    But it's just the dark side of our imagination nothing to worry about.

    Have you seen 'The Pledge' - Jack Nickolson, most underated serial killer movie ever.

    I think it's normal. It's normal for me, at any rate. There are quite a number of people who should be glad that my repeated thoughts of ending their tenure are merely thoughts.

    I'm exactly the same buddy. Even with small children. Whenever I see a child acting like a snotty, bratty little demon I invision chucking them off of a bridge.

      You have some SERIOUSLY deranged ideas, Goblin. I've only been on this site for a few days and nearly every post I see from you is f*ed up somehow. Not good. :/
