Do you know anyone who went insane after a major trauma?

<p>An informal survey.</p>

<p>(refer to title)</p>

<p>I got pushed once and I snapped and kicked his arse.</p>

<p>We all know someone. IK. You broke up with him, which caused him to crack. How dare you. Shame.</p>

<p>I knew this question was rigged the instant I saw it.</p>

<p>I've felt this urdge to hit anyone for quite a while. The problem is that I have no idea what situation is severe enough for me to "lose it" so I always handle eveything camly. It's a pain in the ass!</p>

<p>That mostly happens in movies. In real life people go crazy after a long series of small tramas.</p>

<p>i know someone. simfish</p>

<p>wasn't that your old screen name? or am I mistaken?</p>

<p>Linzoy - do you mean like a geek who gets picked on for years, then goes nuts and shoots all the cool kids?</p>

<p>Wait. They went out?!?!?! OMG NO WAY!</p>

<p>what are you talking about?</p>

<p>OMG! Fizix And IK dated!!!</p>

<p>...and that was when I went to college and got a life.</p>

<p>OMG NO WAY! wait i thought you both went to caltech???</p>

<p>^ Because going to the same college means you can't go out?</p>

<p>That's really creepy. I only know one CCer well, and I've seen one other a few times. The one I know well has made about 6 posts. That CCers - especially such high-profile celebrities as fizix and IK - go out (with each other!) is kind of scary. Even worse than two Wikipedians.</p>

<p>No. He just really wanted to go to Caltech.</p>

<p>I've never actually met him in real life.</p>

<p>But hey, he's pretty cute :D</p>

<p>"No. He just really wanted to go to Caltech."</p>

<p>haha, I wanted to go to Caltech but defected in favor of an early entrance program (Caltech is the school closest to what I'd call "ideal", but I'm not quite sure if it really is even close to that at all - Cambridge Tripos is probably closer). I've read the Caltech boards for the last 3 years</p>

<p>how are we both high profile celebrities? :p</p>

<p>It must have something to do with my 12 ascensions on nethack.alt.org.</p>

<p>I don't know why you're a celebrity, though. :p</p>

<p>Well, I meant on CC.</p>
