The number of posts that state matter-of-factly that use of a device of this nature will result in it's operator suffering anything from a mild pummeling to a quick and painful death is pretty ridiculous.

If you find yourself maddened to the point of physical violence over someone switching a television off in your close proximity, perhaps you should look into some anger management classes.
