Cute aggression Puns

So this happened to me and I’m still mad thinking about it. Me and my daughter (7) went to a pet shop a couple weeks ago to buy some things. While in line there was a little girl in front of us with her mother a bully mix. We were six feet behind them (social distancing) and as soon as we approached the woman stepped on the leash and warned us not to come closer because the dog was still a puppy and jumpy. No problem, puppies jump, the dog looked full grown but it took me a good year and a half to train my dog not to jump when excited. So the dog is pinned on the ground and my daughter is just talking to the little girl. She took a step closer to show the little girl a toy she was buying and the dog starts growling and trying to get unpinned. Then when the woman went to grab her change she stepped off the leash and the dog immediately lunged at my daughter, luckily it was a short leash and at that time I gave the benefit of the doubt he was excited and wanted to say hi. Maybe he was growling from being pinned down. Nope. As they started to move away and we approached the counter the dog continued growling at her and began lunging at her again. Like this dog really just wanted to tear into her. Now I know kids can disregard personal space but we were 6 feet away the entire time and my daughter had no interest in the dog she just wanted to talk to the other girl. The woman kinda laughed and said, “oh I’m sorry she got to close to his girl he is really protective.”

Lady we are 6 feet away from you. Guarding aggression is serious and not cute. I don’t understand what about that situation was funny! Imagine if we weren’t in line and my daughter went down an isle saw a little girl her age and approached her to say hi and you weren’t stepping on the leash. If your dog needs to be pinned down to the ground so he doesn’t attack a small child DO NOT bring him out in public ESPECIALLY without a muzzle.

Thanks for reading my rant.

Cute Aggression:

Experienced by 50-60% of the human population. Overwhelmingly aggressive feelings when confronted with something too damn cute.

“What a fluffy little emperor. I can’t help it, it’s so damn cute I want to squeeze it, throw it in a blender and gobble it all up!”

“No one mentioned how adorable they were. It’s the kinda cute that makes you want to kick a wall, you know?”

“You’re right Ambassador Olsson, it is so soft I want to turn it into a rug, better yet a pair of mittens. Awe!”

Kwee, a Gudari representative, was hidden under a dresser. He was no more than a foot tall, with giant glimmer eyes, and six little limbs that shook in terror. He kept firing off requests for rescue. 'I am trapped in the human quarters. They are discussing violent plans to skin and consume the Emporer. Send support.' The shadow of the towering creatures flickered across the floor. Kwee could see their heavy boots and imagine being crushed under their weight.

“Ambassador, I might need to put one in my luggage and bring it home. The kids would just eat it up.”

'They are planning a kidnapping,' Kwee frantically signaled. 'They are considering feeding a citizen to their youth.' He began sending recordings and writing his final testimonial.

“They’re pretty aggressive I heard. But can you imagine those little guys being angry? Adorable. They’re like fluffy caterpillars. I bet they don’t even bite that hard.”

Kwee got a signal. Base to Kwee - preparing to glass the ship. Evacuate within the next 10 minutes. Kwee shut his eyes and sent a reply. There’s no hope. It has been an honor to serve. He let out a sad little squeak. Immediately all of the humans in the room perked up.

Then set of predatory eyes appeared. They were narrow and calculating. With it came a spindly hand. Kwee backed himself into the corner as the fleshy, tentacled appendage grew nearer. “Hey, little guy. How did you end up here?” Kwee lounged forward and nipped at the human’s fingers. The human didn’t flinch, instead, it wrapped itself around Kwee’s body and forcefully dragged him out from hiding.

Kwee was swept up into the air. It felt like one of the great winged Koovakoo had snatched him up for a feast. Kwee shrieked in horror. “Aweee, poor little fella,” the ambassador cooed. She was a monstrously giant alien who bore bright teeth at Kwee. Kwee locked up as she began to play with his fur. “There, there, we will get you back home to your ship. Aston, signal the Union.”

"Cute Aggression" is a psychological phenomenon that can occur when we get overwhelmed by very cute things as animals for example. We get the inner need of squeezing, biting or nibbing things. It is not about harming things. It is just something our brain does to cope with too much cuteness. Does anyone know examples of this effect in pop culture or literature? (the only thing that popped to my mind was John Steinbecks "Of Mice and Men").

Would be grateful for any information on this. Thanks!:)

So this is how my OCD has been fucking with me. Atleast I hope it is OCD. I have three dogs, and I love them dearly. I care for them in every sense of the word and my ocd even makes me go overboard sometimes with it too (ringing vets for every single lump and bump the dogs have) double checking etc etc... But then comes in the Harm OCD. I get intense urges to squeeze and bite my dogs (this can come down to cute aggression) and i do squeeze them sometimes playfully, i do pinch them sometimes (they are german shepherds they dont feel this lol) but then come the real dark thoughts. thoughts of strangling them. and almost as a coping mechanism (i think its called checking) i will put my hand around their neck sometimes (i dont squeeze) but my arm tenses up and my teeth grit. It feels like a compulsion. It relieves the urge but then makes my anxiety 100 times worse.

This has led me on to take pyschopathy tests, sadist/sociopath tests the whole lot because im so afraid that im a killer. obviously all of these tests has told me im none of the above. Is this just OCD fucking with me??? Should I stop playing with my dogs?

cute aggression

My friend and I tend to hit each other and just bite sometimes for fun. Is that normal. (We both have a boyfriend/girlfriend and we keep it platonic)

Looking for mods that will warm my heart or something, or maybe just cute animals, whatever works

I have a dog, and 3 months ago I recently adopted a cat from the shelter. The cat is on the fatter side and is really cute, while the dog is on the skinnier side and also adorable.

Whenever the cat is scratching something he is not supposed to, or if he bites me, I have the urge to flip him over and squeeze his belly as punishment. I know it’s wrong and it could hurt him, but the urge to do it comes over me like a huge wave over my body and it is hard to resist. It is like if you are hungry and put a nice smelling dish in front of you, the urge to eat would be almost unbearable. I know that this stems from the cat being fat because when my dog misbehaves, I just tell her no and do not have the same urge to squeeze her like I do with my cat.

I realize that this can get out of hand quickly and am trying to find ways to improve myself so that I do not do anything harmful.

Should I return the cat? Has anybody had experience with overcoming this?

I like one of my guy friends, and the first sign of me liking him was wanting to squeeze him like I want to squeeze (gently, as to not hurt) my cute cat. Also wanting to bite the person. I’ve realized that lots of my romantic feelings towards people feel like aggression and are very overwhelming - but only when I’m physically present with them. I ended up telling him I liked him because I literally felt like I was going to throw up trying to keep it inside. He had already told me he liked me weeks ago, so I wasn’t rejected. Now I feel so much better. Anyone else like this?

my bf is so cute I just wanna smack him through the screen sometimes :/

Just as the title says, why do I feel like squishing those cute animals and get this weird feeling of aggression? Is it a natural response or is it just me with some weird disorder?

We all know when we see cute things. but why do certain things seem cute to us? why do they give us a warm mushy feeling inside? and why do we feel like pinching, biting, or squeezing them? In today's video, we will find out why are we so easily distracted by cute things

Is there a correlation between cute aggression and suicide kindness. People have this cute aggression where they would want to squeeze, bite or hurt something that they find cute/adorable. And I've read somewhere that this is because our brain is overwhelmed by a feeling of happiness/overjoy and its too much to handle and we want to negate it to some level. So we get the urge to harm the object/ subject in question to some extent.

If that theory is true, then shouldn't the opposite be as well.

So I theorize that if we're overwhelmed by a feeling of sadness or emotionally hurt, to negate overwhelming feeling we are kinder and thoughtful to others. Something you notice on people few days before they suicide.

I was rewatching Friends a few days ago and I'm at the part where Emma is born. And I noticed Phoebe's reaction to Emma being slightly... aggressive.

When she first sees her, she says, Ooh, you're so cute! "Oh, I could squeeze your little head!" Then a few episodes later, she says, "She's just so cute. Oh, I wanna bite her ear off and use it as a sucking candy!"

And I was wondering whether Phoebe might have cute aggression. Cute aggression is basically a condition where when the person sees something super cute, they have the urge to commit an aggressive act. I'm not sure what you think, so I'm interested to hear your perspectives!

TIL about “cute aggression”. May Wiki page na din siya kung saan binanggit din ang “gigil”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cute_aggression

“Cute aggression, or playful aggression, is superficially aggressive behaviour caused by seeing something cute, such as a human baby or young animal.[1][2]”

Eto na ba ang official English translation ng “gigil”? Tatanggapin na ba natin ito?

Do you feel the urge to kill/hurt cute things?
