Some of you may be familiar with the phrase, “Like a bull in a china shop.”

The phrase is a simile, which basically describes one thing with similarity to another.  In this case, the phrase “like a bull in a china shop” is referring to someone who is going on an emotional rampage; they are angry, and they are taking it out on whoever and/or whatever gets in their path.

 The phrase is not considered to be of a positive nature.  If you are the one being called the bull, then people are wanting to stay away from you because no one wants to be the “china shop.”  But let’s face it -  Haven’t you ever wanted to the be the bull? Aren’t there times where you’d enjoy nothing more than barreling through a china shop like a full-speed freight train of a one-ton bull, releasing all that pent-up frustration?

 Well my friends, you need not wait any further. . .Head on over to San Diego, California to Sarah’s Smash Shack , put on your bull-horned cap, and get your bash on!

This unique shop let’s you smash until your heart is content.  With a variety of glassware choices to obliterate or the ability to bring your own “smashable” items, you’ll have more fun flinging plates than a four year old picking his nose! (Check out their “menu” here)

The Shack even let’s you pipe in your favorite MP3’s off of your personal music player - so you can rock out while you go all out!  Smashing rooms are even big enough for several “offenders” so you can bring your friends to help you out! No one gets hurt, and at the same time, the broken glassware gets donated to local artisans, art physical therapy programs, and anyone else who wants it!  Its a little piece of heaven. . .in San Diego (not where one expects to find heaven, but hey, who’s to argue?).

 Who needs anger management when you can go down to Sarah’s Smash Shack? (Gift certificates are available!)

So go on Mr. Bull, tear up that china shop, but leave a little for us!
