We owned a large computer business when computers first became popular (no laptops, etc) the big jobs.
Well, of course we had several large computers (towers, etc). I've never taken a computer class (never wanted to).
My late husband would call me up and ask me to get on the computer and look something up.
I'd get so frustrated and I threaten to 'throw the thing out the window'. He'd say (very loudly...it was a joke for the people who worked for him)..."Noooooo!!!! Just wait til I get home....I'll do it".
I don't often throw things because I live alone and I'd have to clean it up.
Besides, it's very dangerous.
Oh! Wait! I forgot! I do throw things every day up and down the stairs. I live in a split foyer. So I throw things down to the foyer that I'm going to take out the next time I go out.
When I come home, I come in through the garage so I throw stuff up the foyer and when I get to the foyer, I throw them up the next level.
So, I'm constantly yelling at Bill the cat because he's always standing in the way. One of my last words will probably be, "Bill....Get out of the way".

Pillows. Feels good to hurl them yet they do little damage. I get so mad and frustrated taking care of my elderly mother that I will sometimes close the bedroom door and just let 'em fly! Especially good to toss are the small travel pillows -- I can really get some speed on those and WHAM!

When, on rare occasions , I lose it, I'm a pillow thrower and a door slammer.

@Warrior2022 When I was a kid I ran to my room and slammed the door like you did.
I don’t remember what made me angry but when I heard my Father running up the stairs I slid the door bolt.
He told me several times to open it and I wouldn’t.
Then off came the hinges and the door remained off.
I haven’t thought of that in years, and I never throw things or slam doors.

@AzcowgirlThat's different -- you were just returning what belonged to them!

Nope, never had the desire to destroy my own property or the property of anyone else.
