English Language & Usage Asked on June 17, 2021
I’ve got an answer to my comment at Stack Overflow, and I don’t get what it means.
I’ve googled and looked over several dictionaries with no help. Seems like it is some specific slang/phrasal verb, which I cannot find.
zerkms: @OMG Ponies: I have an idea of writing small .net application that formats any sql query accodring to the rules you’ve thinked of/invented (to get a practice in lexers/parsers). What do you think of this? 😉
OMG Ponies: @zerkms: Urge to kill… rising… :p
Claudiu's answer is good. The original source of the quote posted by OMG Ponies is actually from The Simpsons. It's from Treehouse of Horror V; one of the Halloween episodes specifically. In this episode, Homer's "urge to kill"—i.e. his violent tendencies—are tapered by the Television working and/or showing a TV show that makes him want to kill (the episode was a spoof on the Steven King book/film The Shining, in which the character Jack tries to murder his family). It is, of course, a very tongue in cheek saying. It essentially means that one is extremely bothered and/or annoyed by something, so much so that it makes you want to "kill" something. The author of the post definitely means you no harm. :)

An urge is a desire to do something. To kill is to take somebody's life away. So to have an urge to kill means to have a strong desire to take someone's life away =).
Ah yes I didn't finish. It of course is ironical! The gist is that the idea seems so terrible to OMG Ponies that it inspires a blood-thirsty death rage in him. Given the demeanour of someone whose handle represents child-like amazement with miniature horses, I'd say that you're safe.

You do not think of anything except the sheer will to want to kill and have the rich taste of blood in your mouth. That taste in your mouth makes you excited and those impulses to kill grow stronger with every drop that slides down your throat. Once you get a taste of blood, it will never leave your mouth’s taste buds. As you swallow raw meat, while you chew the blood comes seeping out of the cracks that it had retreated to until needed again, your taste buds are fighting each other so that they could get every last drop of life's elixir. The blood makes you drunk, like a pure-blood predator, you don't think about anything except finding the next kill.
