So last night, I was trying to heat up some caramel sauce in the microwave and it wouldn't turn on, so I went downstairs to the fusebox. Now our fusebox is really poorly labeled, so I just flipped all the switches off and on again so I wouldn't have to go back and forth checking whether I got the right one. I learned after the fact that there's a trick to finding the right switch even when they aren't properly labeled, but I didn't know that at the time. I also acknowledge that I probably should've given everyone a heads-up before doing this. That was my bad.

So, as I finish doing this, my sister starts screaming at me from the other room, demanding I explain myself. To clarify, she went straight to screaming and swearing at me, that was her first response. I didn't want to validate that sort of behavior, so I ignored her and went back upstairs to microwave my caramel sauce. She followed me, getting increasingly loud and aggressive (and again, the level she started at was already very loud and aggressive). She confronts me in the kitchen, still screeching at me at the top of her lungs, demanding to know why I wasn't responding to her. I told her I wouldn't be spoken to in that way and I said she was being an asshole. She kept screaming, both hurling abuse at me specifically and letting out high-pitched roars of incoherent rage. She also threw a large, heavy container of ice cream at me.

Around this point our parents interceded and separated us, and we didn't interact for the rest of the night.

We haven't interacted much today either, but she's basically acting like everything's normal. I know she won't apologize, because she never apologizes for anything. I'm expected to just drop the whole thing, pretend like it never happened, but I don't want to. I'll admit I'm a pretty prideful person, and it feels disrespectful to myself to tacitly concede that I'm okay with being treated like that.

So, would I be the asshole if I refused to interact with her (beyond the bare minimum) until this is actually addressed? That would also involve kicking her out of the Traveller (kinda like D&D) game I run.

Edit: didn't get the italicization formatting right
