A recent thread on r/AskReddit revealed a range of outrageous adult tantrums, showcasing human emotions at their most extreme. Users shared stories like a film school teacher who erupted in tears and rage after receiving critiques of his poorly received film, leading to his swift firing. Another user recounted an incident with a local preacher who lost his temper over a malfunctioning card in a drive-thru. These anecdotes highlight not only the absurdity of adult reactions but also the troubling underlying issues many individuals face, leaving readers both entertained and disheartened about human behavior.
At film school, we had a teacher who was a little too full of himself. We were going to learn how to analyse and review a movie in one of his classes, and he made a huge mistake by choosing one of his own movies for us to work with. That didn't go well, since the movie above was, well, to put it nicely, a steaming pile of shit. Well, we did our work, and we all put some very well-founded, well-worded, and well-written criticism in our works, and handed our stuff over, while mentally doing the sign of the cross. We knew that this wasn't going to go down well. The next time we had a lesson with that teacher, he proceeded with having a full-blown mega-meltdown in front of the whole class, to the point where he literally started tearing up our reviews and tossing them all over the room, which he then practically ran out of while raging, screaming, and crying.
We didn't hear anything for the next few days, while the managing director and the leadership looked into the case. Then we were told that he had been fired on the spot after raging and screaming at the managing director after our class. It turned out that the man had a severe drinking problem, and that the management was already getting ready to pull the trigger on him. Our reviews were just the straw that broke the camel's back.
I once had the local preacher scream and cuss at me until he was red in the face, then spit on me. He was in my McDonald's drive-thru, and his card wasn't working. At a different McDonald's where I worked, my friend got a Golden Compass Happy Meal toy thrown at his head because the parent said Golden Compass was the devil.
