Krazy Kat,
I appreciate your apology. I do realise that "this sort of reaction" can occur in anyone.
When I was a teacher, a student yelled out, (expletive), which was directed at me, in the classroom. Evryone stoped and turned around to see him. Not one sound could be heard for many minuets. Evryone was stunned.
The student spoke and said," I do not even know that I yelled that out." He was an honor student and we all could not beleive that he yelled that out. And neither could he!
The student then got up and walked out of the room. I learned that he went to the Principal's office and told him what had happenened and he asked to be suspended for 3 days. The Principal gave him the choice to stay in school because he had confessed and was remorsfull. But the student said, "No, I will take my suspension for I do not want to be treated in a special manner. I accept the responsibility for my actions.
The student was suspended and graduated Magna Cum Laude.
