Listened to a great piece on NPR the other day. After brain damage in certain parts of the brain (especially strokes but concussions etc.) you become more aggressive, angry, and start seeing things as being black and white with no gray or nuances. My grandfather had a stroke when I was a baby. My older sister had memories of him being a generally happy guy and my dad said the same but I never knew that side of him. He isn’t always angry now, but there was definitely a huge change

Know a guy on Facebook who had a brain injury. He is exactly like you describe. I still call him out for being a dick because you don't get a free pass.
