Sudden Urges?

Vita · 29 Aug 2010 at 19:57

Does anyone ever get sudden urges? For example, say you're in a public place, just to run around and scream like a total loony. Or if you're at the supermarket, to just go upto the mic and start making fart noises?

Or am I just weird. :confused:

Second one would be quite funny I suppose..

All the time. Fortunately so far I have tended to resist the urge to do something stupid

though afer a few I do tend to listen to the impulses

You sir.. on the the road to becoming one of those people who flashes their penis at women & old ladies.

Do you own a brown long length jacket?

Hell yeah, all the time. It's mostly wanting to do petty things though, like hitting the side-mirrors on parked cars. I would never do such a thing, but I understand those who do.

When you're on a cliff, or the open air deck of a multistorey car park, or anywhere high up, does anyone get the urge to jump off?
How about when you're driving at high speed on a motorway, the urge to violently swerve into the central reservation?

Maybe...

I get similar urges, I also sometimes get random urges to smash stuff.

KNiVES · 29 Aug 2010 at 20:29

I think it's our primal instinct to cause havoc or destruction. We are after all taught at a young age NOT to do these things.

I saw a police car with the driver's door open with the 2 policemen 5 metres away or so. I started to wonder how far i'd get if i ran, jumped into the car and started to drive off.

I've wanted to smash the absolute crap out of stuff on several occasions today, and often find myself having the urge to jump off stuff and crash into the central reservation.....

the real question is, how many of said urges people have do they think "screw it!" and go through with it?

If the news are anything to go by, plenty

I always want to do stupid things, I stop my self before I do though.

On a P&O ferry going over to Amsterdam.. On the top deck being battered by gale force winds like, hmmm, what if i just jumped off..

Only recent things I can think of is I swapped a faulty Samsung HDTV over last year in the Korma store last year. When the guys brought out the Tv, I insisted on checking it over to make sure it was okay. So once it had been checked over, they were about to box it back up and I looked at my mate said "watch this", asked them to wait and knelt down and cuddled the tv for a good minute, without saying anything. I got up, said okay cheers, straight faced - one guy was in genuine shock, the other was cracking up.

Tonnes from when I was younger.

I have no explanation as to why - but If I disconnect a vga cable, I want to lick the end of it and have done once, quite a shock!
