Oh man I hear that. I have an absolutely horrible temper. It's really bad, and I need to do something about it. When I get mad I just don't give a damn about the repercussions of anything I'm doing, I just don't care. Bit me in the ass once...
I worked at a Jiffy Lube, as I've said multiple times. Well, all the guys were ex-cons. One gentleman, who I'm actually good friends with, had gotten out of prison for attempted murder a year earlier. Now, he's about 5'6, 215# of solid muscle. I swear to you he's a giant; he can put a can on top of his peck (by his collar bone) and use it as a drink rest. Huge. Anyway, I was having a ****ty day one time, and we were really busy and things got a bit heated when they (co-workers) started on me about my mom and if I could "hook em up." For some reason, I thought it'd be a good idea to stand up to this guy, square up to him. I remember thinking at the time that there was no way in the world I'd win this fight. But I couldn't back down, either, from all the **** I'd been talking. He was just about to deck me (likely ending my life...) when his brothers (also Hulk sized) stepped in and broke it up.
Talk about mouth getting body into a situation body can't handle!
Been in a few back to back fights with my best friends...threw a kid through a window once.
****, these days you're lucky not to get shot.

It's weird because I have infinite patience, it's just certain things, words, actions, attitudes and it's on like someone flipped a switch.
Lot of times it me got me in way over my head. I'd think nothing of getting into it with guys twice my size. They'd usually back off or hesitate long enough for my friends to drag me out of there.
Stupidest snap ever, I went after a couple of bouncers in an NYC club cause one of em called my friend an a55h0le. Don't know why it pissed me off because my friend actually was a real a55h0le.
Anyway, what would cause me to kill.
Lay a finger on my kids and you are dead where you stand. Do anything to harm even one hair on their heads and it's over. Just thinking about it right this moment is getting me riled. I don't think that is one I could get control over.
