People usually associate temper-tantrums with children, but adults are being caught now pitching a fit.
CBS2’s Dick Brennan reported that more and more adults are being caught on tape throwing temper-tantrums. They kick, scream, fall to the floor, and throw things — and it doesn’t take much to set them off.
Adults throwing tantrums are also being caught on video thanks to today’s technology. But could there be something more going on?
“Most of us are able to get angry, and express our frustration in a constructive way,” therapist Diane Kolodzinski said.
But for others, Kolodzinski said something as simple as spilled milk is literally enough to send them over the edge.
“They go zero to 100 really fast,” she said.
This is the biggest phenomenon of our time. They notice it when someone spills milk and proceeds to whip out a Tec-9 and mow down everyone in sight. But this is so much more. It is everything from Trigglypuff, to the rise of feminism, to the coddling of our sexual defectives, to the shifts in our political balance. This is the abandonment of Darwinian selection.
Thousands of mutations are supposed to be culled to find that one mutation with advantage, so it can come to dominate the population. Instead we have turned that system on its head by according special rights to all the defectives.
The funny thing is when you are talking amygdala deterioration, there is no limit, save when resources restrict. Make resources free for long enough, and this would eventually be the majority of the population, and they’d be even worse than they are now. THERE IS NO LIMIT. Like time, how far this could go is only bounded by infinity.
In the eighties, if a guy said he felt like a lesbian, so he thought he should be allowed to shower in the women’s locker room with little girls, he’d have been beaten until he admitted that he was stupid, and then he might have been killed, depending on who was doing the beating.
Today he has the support of the federal government. Tomorrow what will be accepted is whatever is still thought of as unacceptable today. Strip naked and openly masturbate at the water cooler, while carrying on a conversation with your coworkers about the big game last night? It’ll get you a tax break one day, unless you’re in the Tea Party. Accidently fart, and then pick up a baseball bat and bash in the skull of the talkative redhead in the next cubicle over? There will be a special interest group lobbying Congress for those guys. Because it would be mean to make fun of them.
There is no limit.
The bad news is that the Apocalypse is still quite a ways off, and as a result this will get worse. The good news is, by force of shortage, or force of insanity, it all ends in the same place – the inevitable return of Darwinian selection.

On a related note, a public school classroom can easily have half of its students be “Special Ed,” up to including individuals with IQ’s below the threshold for EVER being self-managing (i.e., such a person will live his or her entire adult life in some sort of institution.)
Tantrums, biting, throwing objects (including chairs), even trying to run out the doors are increasingly “normal” behaviors for grade school students. Schools have added “code yellow” (clear the hallways & close doors because a student is going berserk) to codes indicating fire, tornado or (the other modern addition) active shooter. Grade schools have what amount to “rubber rooms” where 6 to 12 year olds undergoing a full scale meltdown can be placed until they run out of energy. Increasingly, grade schools have full-time social workers and full-time psychologists.
It is an economic axiom that the supply of something will rise to meet “demand.” As society throws resources at accommodating increasingly bizarre, self-destructive, violent and uncontrolled behavior, more such behavior will be “supplied.” Those who set policy for America’s schools appear to be profoundly ignorant of the simple cause-and-effect system anyone who has had a dog knows. They reward behavior more as it becomes worse. The ignorant half of parents send increasingly uncontrolled kids to schools and stand ready to bring a lawsuit the moment their child is somehow disciplined.
An entire generation of feral animals is fermenting in America’s schools.
You mean the type of people who have conversations like this?
I’m gonna jump in the gorilla pen!
Oh No You Ain’t!
Oh yes I am!
Oh NO You Ain’t!
Here I go!
Oh well, accidents happen!
These people social signal crazy behaviour and either get rewarded with status if successful (and mates) or pity prize money and sympathy if they fail. Why wouldn’t the weaklings go full degenerate? Tantrums are a controlling behaviour on those suffering them, the person isn’t actually suffering at all, like how drunk people sober up really quick when the police arrive. Also, people like SJWs are not offended at all, that’s their script, they’re actually out-raged.
[…] Why are adults having temper tantrums now? […]
It truly is now the survival of the weakest and most perverse, because the government confiscates the resources of the producers and fork it over.
