Make us preferred on Google

People who are extremely competitive can ruin the experience of any time of gameplay or sport.

Yet, you can't fault them for their passion...until you see them win and run victory laps around you until you're dizzy.

But when they lose? Oof. It can either be amusing or utterly disturbing to witness.


Strangers online shared their experiences after Redditor ImaginativeEmpress asked:

"What’s the worst reaction to losing you ever saw?"

"Board games are hardly boring."

Hunger Games

"Breaking the board apart and eating the pieces. We were just playing ludo."

– randomhumen

"Eating the pieces? Damn, that’s a whole new level of sore loser."

– AstreaShira

Diplomacy

"In university we played a game called Diplomacy in between and after classes when we could. We had a little table set up in the common room and no one bothered with it. There’s a lot of backstabbing and secret deals that goes on. We had this one friend, Jamie, who got so mad at being double crossed by a secret deal that he flipped the board and the table. He and his girlfriend left our friend group and dropped any classes that he had in common with anyone in our game group. We never saw him again despite knowing him since high school."

Sister's Rage

"My sister tore down a door in our parents' house a couple years ago when I said that 'zag' wasn't a word in Scrabble. Turns out it is a word and I was wrong, but her reaction was nuts."

"She paid for the repairs, and then I chipped in for half once I realized that 'zag' was actually an acceptable Scrabble word."

It's not all fun and games after all when the cops get involved.

Haywire Hockey

"We had some dad whose name I've long since forgotten lose his sh*t after a hockey game. This was one of those kids games the parents got too invested in. It started when his son supposedly had a penalty called on him for high sticking + checking, and supposedly this butterfly effected the entire game. Everybody was sick of this guy's antics after about 45 minutes, and one of the parents confronted him, and he stewed some more. At the end of the match he was banging hard on the glass, and swearing every word that is unholy, then he got into a fight with a few parents. Ended up with a bloody nose and was cuffed."

Angry Coach

"I play tennis and in high school we played a team and beat them."

"The coach called the cops on us after threatening our coach and had us escorted off the premises of the country club … for beating them. We weren’t even loitering, he just lost his mind on our coach and my coach was standing up for us, we were just trying to pack up and leave. Next thing you know - cops have arrived. This was a 50+ year old man."

– Feeling_Ad_2354

The tantrums people can have are downright frightening to watch.

Poor Guitar

"I've seen a dude take his Wii Rockband guitar, both hands on the neck and smashed it to hell on a coffee table because he 'got boo'd off of the stage.'"

– Weedhopper24

Projectile Vomiting

"saw a guy scream so much about everybody else cheating, so hard, he threw up."

– nelliesgrowingpayne

Game Over

"A buddy of mine was playing Rocket League and getting his a** handed to him game after game. He got really mad after a while and threw the controller at the screen while calling the other players cheaters. After he calmed down, he just stared at the broken TV and said 'F'k. Now I can't play anymore.'"

"Congratulations buddy. You realized you're garbage at the game and can't keep playing to get better all in one."

– Merry_Dankmas

What A Mess

"My stepdad threw chili ALL OVER the kitchen and smashed the lid to the crockpot, then threw our Christmas tree off the deck (we had it sitting on our deck to get rid of it) because his football team lost a game. He was also drunk."

"Best part was my mom was PISSED. She put up baby gates on both entryways to the kitchen to keep the dogs out. Then made him clean it all up, spotless, the next morning when he was hungover. It was all over the ceiling, walls, cabinets, countertops and floor."

– Gyzonx

Bye To The Pillow

"I was on zoom waiting for the teacher. Kid playing a phone game gets up, screams, tears his pillow with his teeth, cries."

– LynxWantsToBeHuman

Pitching a fit after losing is no different than a toddler wailing after not getting their way.

So it's rather unsettling to watch a grown adult have a total meltdown and cause property damage.

Like, seriously, how are they during job interviews that don't go well in their favor?

If you have a short fuse, remember, it's not that deep.

You can either seek anger management courses or have an edible.

Otherwise, you'll be that person no one wants to play with anymore.
