Well, I can speak from experience on this subject. I am 66, so a lot of life experience, good and BAD.
One of the bad aspects is going for the throat, as in getting someone back. Weel, yes it worked, but it never gave me any satisfaction ever.
One time, when I was growing up my older brother, decided it would be funny to uranate on me. I was on the ground, and he was in a hay mow, and he took a whiz on me. I was drenched and he was laughing his head off. My "dad" also thought that it was extremely funny. So, I took a 4-tine pitchfork and shoved it into his right leg. He was not laughing after that.
Not only did my "dad" work me to the bone, 16-hour days, in retrospect, I felt no better afterwards. But I will say one thing, my brother never ever messed with me again. So maybe something good came of it.
