A few (major) caveats:

• The study is being filtered through a blog post (which isn’t even accurate enough to get the source of the paper correct, attributing it to “Western University in Ontario”).
• The study itself is written by one author and published in a journal by the University of Gdańsk of little import. That’s, of course, just an indicator it might not be the most credible.
• I will defend psychology as a science until I’m blue in the face, but it is right now undergoing a serious replication crisis, especially because of its poorly representative sampling.
• The sample is: “A sample of 529 (52% men) undergraduate business students”, which is a laughably biased sample compared to a global population. They never say which university, but given the publication and the author’s workplace, it’s safe to revise that to “529 (52% men) undergraduate business students at U. Gdańsk”.
• The study evaluates negative personality traits based off a “dark tetrad”, which is a still-controversial extension of the “dark triad”.
• As the author notes, the mean score from the three questions pertaining to “I want to fuck my car” wasn’t all that high (approximate average of “somewhat disagree” on all three with approximate standard deviation of a single “neither agree nor disagree”). This means the actual sample of people who had the problem being addressed in the title of the study was vanishingly small.

This, to me, is flimsy evidence at best even when I already buy into the basic premise.

Not true. I don’t have a modified exhaust system.
