Am I Wrong to Wish For Pain and Suffering?

Question

I drive alot for work. ALOT. I can't stand idiots who don't use turn signals, drive slow in the fast lane, cut me off in traffic, pull out right in front of my moving vehicle....the list goes on and on.

My question is, am I wrong for wishing for these individuals to die slowly in a firey car wreck? It does make me feel better thinking this.............

Answer 1

Well, it's definitely not good to wish for things like that, but it would be even worse to vent your anger physically and cause an accident.  So if wishing like this is helping you to control your own temper, then it may not be a bad thing.

Answer 2

Wishing for pain and suffering in others, *is* suffering for you.

I know it feels like it makes you feel better, but check it out really.  It just feeds the cycle of anger and overentitlement.  I mean real world, you're unbelievably lucky to be able to travel at 60 mph and do your work sitting down.  If you'd been born 60 years sooner, you'd be in a trench fighting Germans, and 10 years before that, in a soup line or lucky to be unloading trainloads of grain one sack at a time.  Even today you could have been a Chinese peasant, never in your life even seeing a telephone.

So here you are with the unbelievable good fortune to be wealthy (i.e. own a computer) in this age of abundance ... and you're angry!?  Think it through.

Answer 3

YOU ARE HORRID! HOW COULD YOU WANT YOUR PEOPLE TO DIE!?!?!?! THAT IS WRONG IN EVERY WAY!!!! GIVE CHANCES, TAKE CHANCES. WIN, OR LOSE. YOUR IN IT TOGETHER..... forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -_-

Answer 4

Well look at it THIS way- be careful what you wish for... -cuz with that Attitude- YOU just might  get it!  Happy Motoring! :)

Answer 5

You may feel better about these people if you keep track of your s***w ups.

Answer 6

It is people like you that others think are idiots. you say you drive ALOT! and I bet you think you are better than everyone else at driving, you never make mistakes, and nothing is your fault, you are complacent and you do make mistakes like any other human being, so how do you feel when someone else wishes you dead when you have p*ssed them off???

Answer 7

Heres a little secret.  Buy a car that is bigger then everyone elses.  That way if someone cuts you off you don't care if you "accidentally" hit them.  That'll teach people to mess with you on the road.

Answer 8

I know exactly how you feel. I also wish very bad things on these low life class of subhumans.

Answer 9

I think you're wrong, but the bigger issue is what MR HENRY S said. Sadly, he got three thumbs down (so far) and one thumb up (from me) so far. The problem is that you think you are the greatest driver on the road today. We have news for you. You're not. You f*k up too. Your problem is denial. You're not alone, though. There are hundreds or questions here just like yours. Every one of them starts off with something like "Why does everyone...". So either you are the one writing all these questions, or there are hundreds of other people who think "everyone else" is the problem. Mathematically, that's not possible. If you drive "a lot" as you say, the odds are that either you are a total jackhole type-a or you need therapy in order to drive another mile. You would think that after driving so much you would have learned to cope better. Apparently you haven't.

Answer 10

I understand exactly how you feel ,and i wish the same thing sometimes, only I'm flipping them off while i'm thinking.
