Cold Eggs?!?!!? DIE BITCHES!!!

The news never fails to throw up one story every day or two that just makes me sit there and think 'what the hell is going through that person's mind to affect their thought process in a manner that makes them react so drastically to something so trivial???'  Today was one of those days.  Rural Kentucky has seen 47 year old Stanley Neace go on a killing spree inside his trailer-park home, his victims including his wife, his step-daughter and 3 neighbours before turning the gun on himself.  In my opinion, before we continue with worrying about whether firearms should be legal or marijuana or the legal speed limit, these cases throw up some interesting conundrums regarding society.  My favorite is 'what the hell caused this guy to turn into such a nutjob, and what on earth are we doing about it?'.  Now, lets be clear, the egg thing is a headline.  Was it cold eggs?  Was it his wife telling him to eat less red meat and start eating tofu for lunch with organic vegetables and low fat mayo?  Was it a rack that just wouldn't keep the damn toast standing properly?  Frustration is natural and in my opinion the most powerful emotion people experience - not just it's own potency, but it's incredible ability to generate such other, powerful, negative emotions - anger especially seems to flow quite freely and believe me getting hit with a red shell when i'm just about to win a race in Mario Kart 64 has no trouble in generating frustration and subsequent anger in me so god only knows what some people must be feeling.
Apparently Mr Neace was 'unpredictable'.  Glad we've cleared that up.

  7. Well, it's interesting. The only reason people don't do things like that all the time is because it's generally unacceptable to do them, but there's nothing stopping one.
