Is there a person alive that can take a hit?

I mean, when something happens and tempers flare, and every fibre of your mind wants to lash out and flay the living soul out of that person.. Can you swallow it and say something logical instead?
Say you are waiting 5 minutes for a parking spot, your signal blinking, and the car finally pulls out, but before you can claim your prize, some asshat sneaks in and takes it. Your mind explodes in anger and you want to be holding a bazooka and blast that fker into tomorrow.. Can you smile and wave at them instead? "oh excuse me, I see you needed that spot more than I did, enjoy the rest of your day"
