I dunno, sometimes I'm filled with an urge when eating tortilla chips to try using dirt as salsa to see what it tastes like... I have some idea what it'd taste like, but for some reason that urge comes along sometimes.
That's Pica, more specifically Geophagy.
I'm not sure that's really it, I don't think it'd taste good, I just sometimes get weird random urges to do crazy things. Thankfully I'm gifted with a decent working impulse control.

Sometimes I also have the urge to say things I know are going to piss someone off, or I know I shouldn't say as well.
That would technically fall under violence.
Probably not unless you classify anything that'd make someone feel bad... I think in this case what I'm talking about is usually the urge to tell someone a hurtful truth that's probably better left unsaid.

Pica is about the impulse, not if you actually think it tastes good or not.

Anything hurtful is classified under violent thoughts, yes. Hence the use of the word, "technically".

You're just brutally honest, then.

To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.

I could read between the lines. They wanted to see the alien.

That said, I giggled at the end of the OP.

I think I'm an alright guy. I just wanna live until I gotta die. I know I'm not perfect, but God knows I try.
