Indeed, if you hurl printers at people, there is something so wrong with you mentally, the only fair response is compassion and pity in my view.

- ianai 5y agoReally? You think the rational and common reaction is to express compassion and pity for the person throwing the printer? I wouldn’t throw printers at people. For one thing, they might throw it back. For two, I don’t violently attack people…
- tnzm 5y agoThe rational and common reaction is to duck.
- em-bee 5y agodepends on the angle the object is coming at you. with a heavy object that's being hurled at your feet the chance that it flies high enough to pass over your head and back if you duck is low.
- louwrentius 5y agoDon’t you understand how terrible things must be for you in your head to get to a point where you can’t resist throwing printers at people?
- toomanybeersies 5y agoNormal people don't throw printers at other people, because they're aware it's against social convention and liable to get them fired (or worse).
- kbelder 5y agoAnd because it might hurt somebody. Actually, that's the main reason people don't do it.
- heavyset_go 5y agoThere are plenty of assholes who do shitty things because they're just entitled. There's no need to pathologize shitty people.
- louwrentius 5y agoThat's such a convenient and easy answer.
- heavyset_go 5y agoShitty behavior is just evidence of shitty behavior. "Throwing things at coworkers" isn't a symptom of any mental illness, and without evidence of actual mental illness, pathologizing such behavior is conjecture at best.
