Do you ever actually think about physically hurting someone when you're mad, stressed, aggravated etc?

Some people will say things like, “This guy cut me off and I swear I wanted to bash his head in with a baseball bat” or “Laura was staring at me and I wanted to grab her hair and throw her across the room” etc.

I never actually think these things; at worst I want to just yell or say something extremely hurtful to the person, but never hit them or stab them, mutilate them, or crush them.

Do you actually want to hurt someone physically when they piss you off? Why do you think people feel this way?
