Quote of the day: "What I do know is that I've got the most annoying son-of-a-bitch brother on god's given earth..." -Thomas McCall in Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
In light news, new icon! :D Animated it myself.
Alright... I'm a relatively nice guy. Damn sensitive and I friend people really easily. As far as I know, I don't get mad often, however, I do get mad easily. I try to work on this as best as I can...
Rarely is this anger directed towards friends or most of my family, more to enemies, situations, and for the most part, my younger brother(By like, three years, so not much).
We fight... all the damn time. Usually we bicker over rights to use either the computer, or play video games. Trivial right? I know. -_-
Now... I tend to be violent with him. He is one of the few people in the world to know all the buttons that set me off. Usually it's limited to one punch in the arm every time he decides he wants to keep going with the insults, taunts, and copious amounts of bullshit. That being said, I've been working on this. I usually get to threats before I stop myself.
Today happened to be one of these days. Per usual daily ritual, he spends many many hours on the computer, playing World of Warcraft. By average.... 4-6 hours. Usually 3 or 2 on the days that I get lucky.
He goes to work in 45 minutes, so I pop on some video games until he comes down starting to complain that I suddenly jumped on even though he was on the computer a few minutes ago. Anyways, I was apathetic to his complaining, around 4-5 hours on the computer, I'm just oozing sympathy for him. I'm in the midst of playing the campaign of the game you see in the quote at the top of this post. I've already died 3 times in one area and I'm going on the 7th or something. I curse, cause I die for what must have been the eighth time.
Now, just a short detail about me and him. When he plays video games or computer games, he screams, yells, curses, and destroys things. He's a damn lunatic and has destroyed a controller because of his anger. I don't tend to be like this with my stuff, ever. And yes, I get angry at him because he's already destroyed a controller and wakes me up with this crap. So he hears my raving about his temper with games often.
Now, the moment I cuss.... I am labeled a hypocrite in this situation. I lose it. End up punching him.
Not sure what to bloody well do. I love the bugger, I spend hours worrying about him when he goes to Lynn canyon to jump off the cliffs(Thankfully, he's assured that he doesn't jump from 'that' high). I've been on lengths to going to high school and beating the shit out of someone because they made his arm look like a road map of yellow and brown bruises on his birthday... But one of these days... I'm going to end up hurting him if we both don't solve these fights.
