    It's normal if you play video games and are doing a hypothetical exercise on tactics. It's not normal if you're thinking about just shooting innocent people to see how many you can kill. There's a fine distinction to this sort of thing.

    if you're actually thinking about doing it, not normal. but i sometimes think "wow how fun would it be to kill that guy with a hammer!?" that's normal... ish.

  • Completely normal. A sentence the size of a paragraph isn't though.

      Really, is this something you think about as well:S??

      I thought thoughts like this would be considered quite dangerous and certainly abnormal. Maybe it's more common than I realised.

      • Surely you have had the thought of it too? Say if you see a knife on the kitchen table, surely you have just had the thought of stabbing someone with it? Not that you ever would or want to, surely the thought has atleast been through your head?

          Can't say that I have. Would it be like when your sister pisses you off and all you want to do is beat her up?? Is that what you mean?

          • No, just the random thought of something, like if you wanted to do something hostile, you could do it right at that second.

    You need to see a Psychologist or A Counsellor. I think you have issues.

  • It's no different than wondering what it would be like to bone your mom. It's just thoughts and fantasies: unless you act on them they can't hurt anyone.

    i dont think its normal really, but I don't see a problem with it as long as you aren't actually gonna do it.

    Sounds like you're in fighting mode; this happens to me whenever I go to the mall or any other crowded place.

    yeah, just don't actually do it! i do it all the time, but then i think about the aftershocks - like the families of the people and what would happen to me and stuff.

    No, I wouldn't consider that normal. Is this something you are planning to do?

  • Normal. When I'm standing in a high place I usually contemplate jumping off the edge just for fun.
