    Wtf would cause him to smash it in the first place? Sounds initially like a MAJOR, MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR anger management issue. Holy shit.

      I don’t remember the inciting incidents, but yeah, my father was a very angry man. He was also huge, all muscle. Benched 500+ pounds. I was the only one who he wouldn’t hit. But I definitely pushed buttons so thats how his anger formed.

      He’s a much better person nowadays, his growth has been highly positive.

        Oh man.

        I was the only one who he wouldn’t hit.

        If you’re implying what I think you’re implying, there would have to be some sanctifying freaking breakthroughs for me to look past that.

          Haha I probably could have worded it better. My dad isn’t a bad guy, but he absolutely won’t deal with others people’s bs. We both grew up in the same small town, but back when he grew up, times were different. Grandma was a terrible awful person and beat her kids with frying pans and shit like that. He never laid a hand on his children and was always there. But the anger and rage persisted.

          Its less bad if you knew how awful of a teenager I was. Jail cells are cold, did I mention that part? Lol.

              Ha, no. My house wasnt that crazy. Did some dumb stuff though, once it was snowing crazy, school was out so I got on a snowboard and tied it to the back of the fourwheeler and we went onto the road. Almost got ran over by a snow truck when I fell off, good memories.
