Koakuma said: Because miss is shithead. Seriously, don't go unleash your fury of being divorced to random nice yukkuris.
WELL TO BE FAIR: If I was incredibly pissed off and the first thing to walk up to me was some smiling douche who told me to be happy, I'd probably tell him to fuck off or punch him in the face no problem.
Being a shithead has nothing to do with it. When you see a person who looks like they're about to blow, you don't bounce over and just happily smile and tell them to take it easy. Best way to deal with those people is to just let them simmer and get their frustration out in other venues: ones that're preferably not you.
The fact these two just walked up to a mister human when they knew full well she was about to explode and act like nothing was wrong KINDA shows a lack of foresight or empathy on their parts.
You're missing one point. They're Yukkuri. Not saying "you're so sad because you're afraid of my power, gimme sweet-sweets and drop dead" is already being nice for them. Miss just can't control her anger, cuz if she did, she'd just tell them to fuck off and keep being mad.
The fact that their standards of "being nice" are radically different from our own doesn't change that there are socially things you just shouldn't do for your own well being.
And let's face it, if the miss did tell them to fuck off, what do you think their response would've been? Even if the mother took it as a sign to get away, there's a good chance one of the kids would've taken the insult, done "puff-puff" and tried to attack the miss.
Not saying that would've happened. Or that this family couldn't have been consisted of Nice-heads, but on the scale of 1 to 10 (1 being "Platinum Badge of Behaviour" while 10 being "Too Dumb To Live") I'd say this is about a 6. Not necessarily DUMB but something a little bit of insight could've easily prevented.
Now, I do admit that the woman here was obviously jumping the gun and acting rashly, but as you said: they're Yukkuri. Nobody's going to miss them when they're dead, and there's already a 50/50 that one or more would've turned out to be shitheads or annoyingly stupid anyway.
To be fair, it would have been like 1/3 chance of shithead. Cuz there's 3, not 2. :I
But all I'm gonna say is, I don't think any yukkuri, besides MAYBE a Dosu, would have that sort of insight. Unless these yukkuris are from many generations of city yukkuri, then i doubt that that's at all possible.

^This.
Every part of it.
So hard.

^Also this.
Whenever I'm pissed off and someone trys asking me if I want to talk about it or to just be happy it pisses me off even more as I'm sure it would for most people. It's a veritable "poking the grizzly bear" situation. It also really didn't help them that the ones doing the poking were creatures who have less rights than roaches and are regarded the same as rats.
I think Koakuma was trying to insult the anon since he/she didn't like the outcome of this strip, forgetting than insulting anons and such is against the rules.
About the discussion of "if someone is angry avoid him" that's more a half half thing, if you go with a truly concerned attitude and ask a "need any help?" it will be less likely whoever is in a bad mood will lash out as much they'll ask you to leave them alone.
Of course in this case we have yukkuris bouncing like silly and happy pastries who are known to raise death and rage flags on people, so this happening with someone not in the mood is expectable, specially being as "average" looking as this one, instead of being some degree of cute.

I dunno, I get the impression that someone's projecting their bitterness and self-loathing at their real life situation to the comics. Everyone looks like a douchebag to those wallowing in despair and anger.
...If you think about it, a lot of anon abusers seem to be of that mindset. This makes those always-happy yukkuri such attractive targets.

Hmm now that's a interesting theory, anons being too cynic and bitter like to stand for the yukkuris unnecessarily diabetical "happiness" in the same way Duckman can't stand the over mellow and cutebeat antics of his assistants. . .just remplacing fluff with filling.

This. Also, this is all fallout from anti-abuse. There's no mention of marriage or divorce in these strips, and it's simply a false assumption to make anti-abuse. People might abuse for anger relief, they find yukkuris annoying (I fit into this category), or fun. And if they happen to abuse a bunch of nice yukkuris, well, deal with it like everybody else. No need to harp on about them being out of control, unstable, or unhinged (as well as being against the rules).

Nope. Just trying to discuss the pic.

Also dunno what kind of discussion you wanted to make with the "fury for being divorced" since nothing in the comics points it out, it sounds more like bashing the anon than, dunno "was the anon in a bad mood for some reason? what could be?"
I really don't see any hint of anything outside of being furious or having a bad day, i think you may be reading in a bit too much to the point of reaching If Speculation.
But whatever, let's leave it here, she's just angry and unless we can get any further confirmation from the source, either of us could be wrong on this one.
I know I'm late to the party, but I think the lady is just pissed off for whatever reason. And there's nothing wrong with that; like how you might stomp the shit out of a roach if you saw one when you were in a bad mood. Or whatever.
So you pretty much are saying, you guys are so volatile that take out your anger on the sightless provocation? even verbal?, that easily can be a crime if you take it too far or do it to the wrong person.

Most people are able to keep that anger contained to just hurting insects or pests. Me? I can handle anger very well and instead of violence, I may just stomp down or jump while shaking my head in disbelief of what was going on.
