Yeah, I make allowances for youth (the person I snapped at did not have that excuse, though).

I've actually seen my best friend punch a wall in frustration (he was trying to get thousands of dollars worth of essential equipment for his business through customs at the time, and it wasn't going well). He was a pretty strong guy, and he didn't hurt the wall and did hurt his hand.

Rik is the perfect comedic reference, yes. Right on! Take that, Thatcher! *raises fist in air*
