What was your most emotional reaction to a lost Chess game, ever?

chess is only a game. Surprising that many people have such problems when losing a game!!!
Sometimes i take the blame on my girlfriend for distracting me and end up having a very unconfortable time for the next half hour as we have dinner.
many years back, in a serious game against the tournament favorite, i lost after being up 2 pieces for no compensation. 1. I quit the tourn 2. I went to see coaches asking specifically for lessons on "how to handle losses" better. - all in vain! 3. i quit serious chess 4. almost always avoiding playing in the first place, turning myself into a mere spectator. 5. remorse for waisting so many hours in my life for a love of mine that ... only hurts. ;-)
Once I fell to my knees in shock and stared at the screen for like five minutes.
#21 chess is more than a game it's life.....well most of it.
Lost a blitz:

Call my oppenent a idiot, a**h**e and every bad word i just remember that time.

Won a blitz:
Laughing about my 600 ELO favorite opponent, who startet a 5 min. blitz early. I visited the game with 2 min. left and won easily. My opponent left the tourney after the game and i was proud as the hell. HAHAHA Mr. VOHMANN, where ever u are, google this. LOL.

Sorry,
