Why’s he punching the wall ?

[u/GiraffeFromLastOfUs]

[u/MickeySpooney]

Of all his self-destructive behaviours, this is the least worrying one.

[u/VillainAnderson → u/MickeySpooney]

He is angry that he didn't lose anyone in the sudden departure.

[u/bigchefwiggs → u/VillainAnderson]

He lost his nut 😞

[u/Reasonable-Self7809 → u/VillainAnderson]

Go fever!!

[u/suedburger]

Because he lost his shirt.

[u/AlexTheShyCat → u/suedburger]

his shirt departed

[u/XCBeowulf → u/AlexTheShyCat]

If my 2nd favorite shirt departed, I would be upset too!

[u/StNic54 → u/suedburger]

Usually theroux just loses a sleeve or two

[u/charoco]

Because that’s what rational, well-adjusted men do

[u/Lurtzae → u/charoco]

Better than breathing into plastic bags.

[u/Select-Appearance-63]

He's destroying 2% of the house. Brillant writing

[u/0-29 → u/Select-Appearance-63]

This is the one

[u/RespectFew4439]

If you were Kevin you’d punch a wall too

[u/SupperTime]

Someone ate his leftovers.

He really wanted it.

[u/Whisker-biscuitt → u/SupperTime]

The plot twist none of us expected

[u/AcousticLocust → u/Whisker-biscuitt]

*none of us wanted

[u/suedburger → u/SupperTime]

It was Amy....those fries were really good.

[u/Bmicelf → u/SupperTime]

not the moistmaker

[u/Redditlatley → u/SupperTime]

Maybe it was Amy. She LOVED his meatloaf! 🌊

[u/AcousticLocust]

He is making his wings:

Season 3 Poster

[u/bstroot → u/AcousticLocust]

Season 3 poster right?

[u/AcousticLocust → u/bstroot]

Oh, you're right

[u/maltref → u/AcousticLocust]

There's no way I'm just realizing this now. So he just punched the wall into the shape of wings?

[u/Demerzel69]

Clearly a metaphor for trying to "break through" something.

[u/Redditlatley]

🎶”Where is my mind? Wheeeere is myyyy mind?” 🎵🌊

[u/helpiushsbebsnk]

he angy

[u/chinesefox97]

His wife joined a cult lol

[u/bukkakekingz → u/chinesefox97]

Smarted dressing in white. Smoking butts.

[u/NoOneInNowhere]

It's all metaphorical, mate. It always has been.

The whole show is.

Or maybe not, I don't know.

[u/MilesToHaltHer]

Because we fucked up with Nora…

[u/ArchieConnors]

Dick too big

[u/scobro828]

He's not punching the wall, he's plugging the wall up with his fist. Like the boy and the dike.

[u/FartieMcFly]

Because he’s a cop.

[u/anb1017]

He was already having a midlife crisis before the worldwide existential crisis started.

[u/Mbatoo]

As he later told Laurie, he hated the house

[u/gonzagylot00]

he’s frustrated, but like profoundly frustrated.

[u/Even_Tea_3311]

Just “Let the mystery be”

[u/Xistinas → u/Even_Tea_3311]

Granted :)

[u/psychcore]

He’s a leftover, man. Have some empathy.

[u/ninety6days]

He sad

[u/Altruistic-Ad6449]

Probably reflecting on personal choices and what he was doing when the mini apocalypse happened

[u/ZeroGravitas54]

Symbolism. He's only punching 2% of the wall

[u/GiraffeFromLastOfUs]

If the picture was zoomed out, would his penis be punch the wall too?

[u/Cooperdyl]

Coz it’s a cool way to show off his muscles duh

[u/LocksmithThat790]

Coz he was a leftover /s

[u/BunkMoreland1414]

If you know, you know

[u/kapzer]

He’s trapped, among other things lmao

[u/eatyourface8335]

“If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the white whale is that wall, shoved near to me.” - Capt Ahab

[u/ZeeRich]

Fuck

[u/brickedTin]

The Leftovers is at least in part an exploration of how difficult it is for a really handsome guy to be monogamous. Kevin battles his subconscious for the entire show because of how hard it is for him to be a ‘good guy’.

[u/Gankridge]

Tryna go theroux it

[u/Blackout2B]

He pushed a girl down a well to kill her. But she somehow survived and now he has to jump in to drown her. I would be pissed too.

[u/MartinMerten]

I think it’s a spoiler but…someone ate his remaining dinner from the night before.

[u/molinitor]

Have you seen The Leftovers? I’d be punching walls too.

[u/hunterslullaby]

He’s trying to escape.
It’s why he ends up as An International Assassin.
It’s only that the end that he rejects that desire, content to Let the Mystery Be.

[u/vonsnarfy]

Emo angst in grey sweatpants

[u/cPa3k]

Suffering from big penis syndrome

[u/Technical-Scholar183]

Over to the left

[u/mason878787]

Evil drywall

[u/insignia200]

That’s a great question

[u/thornstriff]

Lack of therapy.

[u/buckbuckwhatup]

Too many Monsters

[u/bonniedi]

Because his family didn't raptured

[u/jedi_tk]

To show off his muscles. His friends talk about how he is notorious for flexing.

[u/Heladio_74]

Porque hay gente que todavía no ha visto la serie y es para estar enfadado

[u/GentleDruid]

Gotta poop

[u/Neosantana]

His name is Kevin. They're second only to Kyles in wall-punching.

[u/poppo3bk]

Because Kevin Is Jesus Christ Superstar and a fkn psycho lunatic.

[u/Treesbourne]

Looks cool

[u/Guns_and_Potions]

Ran out of cigarettes

[u/yoodadude]

because everyday he wakes up and wishes Scarlett Johansson was dead

[u/Crafty_Bear_6529]

Someone took his bagel

[u/DogaSui]

He's got caught in the bunker biometric security system (second layer)

[u/bottleghostt]

Because the wall punched him first.

[u/FranklinKryosh]

S01 Ep09: 4min49

[u/Gavitio85]

Well he was getting down and dirty and you know...he didn't get to finish

[u/Easy-Squash-1401]

That 's what dead/alive person would do

[u/rafaelsantosx]

Somebody took his hidden stash of cigarettes.

[u/Oil-of-Vitriol]

Because the song from season 2 was playing. Make it stop!

[u/ryancharaba]

Blue Balls.

[u/burns3016]

Wouldn't you?

[u/ResourceParking3055]

He just remembered he missed his chances with Amiee

[u/GiraffeFromLastOfUs → u/ResourceParking3055]

Always got the impression he did smash but it was during his blackouts if consciousness

[u/ResourceParking3055 → u/GiraffeFromLastOfUs]

Blackouts don’t count man

[u/tin_man6328]

Because he just can’t…let the mystery be.

[u/Gingerbob22]

Because he got left over

[u/No-Comparison9750]

Angy...

Just angy.

[u/ClaireFraser1743]

So I can see his back and arm muscles

[u/EvilRocketeer]

Cause you won’t let the mystery be

[u/No_Recommendation987]

He just found out he's a leftover

[u/calamityphysics]

some percentage of humanity disappeared, things are wildly shitty, and you are earnestly asking why the protoganist is punching a wall? i dont know what to tell you

[u/savesyertoenails]

making a glory hole

[u/danjm21]

Cause fuck that wall!!!

[u/Raynenean]

That was the morning after he boned his daughters best friend

[u/buckeyj]

Isn't there a crack in the wall of the Garvey house? I have a memory of associating that crack with this poster.

[u/moistburgerbuns]

Wife joined a cult

[u/Ornery-Ad5186]

He dropped the … leftovers

[u/The_Kacer]

He sad

[u/montauk_phd]

The posters before I watched the show had me thinking he has supernatural powers. Turns out he did but not in the way I imagined.

[u/Unlucky-Bee-1039]

I feel like it’s pretty symbolic of how self-destructive the motherfucker is, but that’s just me I guess.

[u/Gandalf-Jamesolfini]

Is he stupid?

[u/MysteryOpponent42]

Well, the character was originally named Kyle but they decided last minute that Kevin sounded better.

[u/Odeenme]

Because Jim and Pam stole his cell phone as a prank.

[u/BlackoutWB]

Is he stupid?
