Aw wish I thought of this when I was married to that violent a******. We could've had so much framed art all over the house. Picture frames wouldve cost a lot less than hiring a repairman every time angry husband punched a hole in the drywall.
Whoever wrote the caption doesn't understand shit about masculinity or frailty
That would be great if he came back to sign it. 😊
I've seen this reposted at least 3 times now, and it bothers me each time because we have no idea the story behind it. We only know what's written down, we don't even know if the person who wrote the caption witnessed the event. Was it fragile masculinity? Perhaps?
For all we know, guy had just received some horrible/devastating news.
The assumptions leading to both the 'framing' act and the gleeful posting of it on social media are just a manifestation of thinly-veiled misandry.
Is it normal to you to see people punch walls when they get devastating news?
I'd rather think maybe someone tripped and fell into it if we're looking for charitable ideas.
Yes. I once saw an episode of Maury where a man found out he wasn't the genetic father of his 1 year old daughter, and he started crying and then punching the floor. Is that toxic masculinity or is that a person being sad?

I'm pretty sure punching a wall because your fantasy football league is losing is an unhealthy way of processing anger.
This week I found out I am losing medicade, food stamps and unemployment because one of my previous jobs won't provide the right paper work. That feels pretty wall punch worthy
I feel you bud. Sometimes life just blindsides you and you need an outlet. I hope things improve for you soon.
Probably not. I got my own mental issues to. I almost begged for the job on my last interview. Did not go well.
Sounds like you're in a very rough spot at the moment. Keep going. I won't promise you everything will be solved, but things will change, inevitably, and change could be better. Good luck.
Guys point is, we don't know the why. We only know the what. Sure, I think everyone can agree it's not the healthiest coping, but I don't know too many people who choose the healthy option in a state of extreme emotion. Is there ANY scenario you could imagine this being understandable, even if not good or healthy? Lots of people listing scenarios where I could TOTALLY see getting a rather reasonable person into such a mental state.
I find it odd that it what looks to be chip board pretending to be breeze blocks. Whoever punched it is lucky it wasn't concrete.
Lots of fun scenarios here.
Can't know for sure what the artist intended to say with this piece.
I like to think it was constipational rage
Good band name there.
I'm not sure which of the scenarios that you imagined would be "fun" but... You do you.
The first one could be fun if its consentual, the second one obviously too. The third is just never fun, you are right.
Someone slipped on poop and slammed their head into the wall
I mean... maybe you have never done that on purpose but... loosen up, live a little, try it and you might like it even!? 😉
Looks like some kind of block wall you wouldn’t want to punch. But I guess that’s just some kind of texture?
I thought that too, but upon closer examination it looks like dry wall.
The real question to me is why would you texture drywall to look like concrete.
So people don’t punch it.
I mean, why would you want to punch any wall.
But yeah, whoever went through this wall got lucky it wasn't as solid as its facade.
how do you punch a wall into a toilet
I have a suspicion that it wasn't a punch, but a big ol' fart.
That is creative!
~~Very fun~~ depressing fact: some of the anger we witness out in the world can likely be attributed to people being e.g. exclusively fed ramen as a kid.
is it malnutrition or parents not caring and therefore giving them malnutritious foods? Correlation and causation and all
It's true someone with means and knowledge could do that. Something that's stuck with me for many years:
An impoverished mom could only afford to feed her kid instant ramen most of the time. Iron deficiency -> behavioral problems. Believe this was from the documentary A Place at the Table (2012).
Little did they know that it was that one time I farted too hard
plot twist: it's in the ladies' room.
I find the asymmetry of the mortar joints to be visually bothersom.
