Brilliant, Sherri. You're really showing some progress! I think they call that "transference." You take all your personal frustrations and rather than bottle them up, you bestow them on someone or something else. I've seen parents tell their kids to hit that bad rock that caused them to trip. Or to yell at a tree before coming in the house to leave their frustrations outside.
I really have nothing to ban you for. You're doing everything right. But rather than break the rules, I'll pretend to ban you. Don't worry. Don't get upset. I don't really mean it. Here it goes. Take a deep breath and re-read this paragraph again: (you're banned).
Keep up the good work, pally.
