Be it a laptop, remote control, car, phone, electric plug, password or anything else, does your SO have a problem with inanimate objects just always not working for them? And when you troubleshoot the problem, you realize it’s one of the following:
1) They didn’t slow down and do something properly, and instead assumed it was the fault of the object.
2) They’ve broken something because of their impatience
3) They’ve missed something simple because their anger has overwhelmed their ability to simply look at a situation and fix it themselves.

Yes.
She broke the removable shaft on the vacuum I just bought. There's a button to remove the center piece for smaller handheld use and she just snapped it in half. Who knows, maybe on purpose. I didn't get mad as to not trigger a meltdown.
She totaled her car by rear ending a truck, she said she assumed he was going to start driving after the light turned green...she was apparently going 5mph....and crushed her entire car. It wasn't her fault, but the tail lights on the truck deceiving her.
I hate that I forget the situation, but she once was arguing with an empty cardboard box. It wasn't even funny. I was so confused and put off by it.
