I've come close a few times but mostly fights have been avoided. However, one day I got into it (with one of my best friends) and it actually was pretty comical. I don't even recall what it was about but I was simply steaming when she drove up to the house.

I walked outside and up to her car (she was driving and had a girlfriend in the passenger seat). She rolled down her window and asked if a mutual friend was around and I said, "Get out of the car."

She said, "No because if I do you'll hit me."

I said, "Okay," reached back and punched her full in the face through the open window. Opened the door and dragged her out and proceeded to pulverize her face, pausing briefly to get the keys out of the ignition and throw them over my shoulder into the tall grass of the adjacent field (so she couldn't escape until I was done with her).

At some point, I became aware of the friend who was tentatively tapping me on the shoulder while the other girl howled on the ground and I methodically pounded on her. She (the friend) was saying, "Um, Sky, um, could you please stop? Um..." I elbowed her, knocking her over and went back to work on the other. Friend wandered off and began combing through the grass for the keys.

Eventually, the girl I was pounding managed to get up and run away down the road. I went back in the house and back to whatever I'd been doing. I didn't see her for a month or two but when I next did, we were all cool.

This was about 8 years ago - we're still friends and we laugh about it to this day. And yes, I was about 36 or so when it happened. Just a bad day.... :shrug:
