. I've yet to see a fight at superchargers, but I've seen a ton of fights in LA over gas pumps (usually at Arco's) and I've seen a few fights at the San Jose Costco gas pump where someone will casually cut from the line and grab an open gas pump someone else was waiting for

I got gas yesterday and was all slamming the thing because I had to use my CC a few times, something that added just a minute or two to it had me slamming the thing, byttching about it. Charging isn’t for me unless it would be 100% at home.

Oh it’s fun to people watch at charging stations. I can’t say I don’t understand the frustration though I’d never get into a fight. Imagine waiting an hour just to fight someone over a plug.

Me neither, but is it really any different from any other "people behaving badly" situation? It just happened to be at a charging station that time. Scenes like that happen everywhere everyday, because anywhere you have people, there are inevitably going to be a fair few stupid ones...
To quote the late, great George Carlin: “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”

Come here to Northern Cal, and you'll see stupidity beyond belief, like people driving 60 in the left lane, stopping on the freeway, stopping to make a left turn...while not in the left turn lane, and my favorite, texting while driving
