"I'm gonna kill you" is probably the most common example. While many people do make that threat seriously, the vast majority of the time it's hot air.

I assume this muppet who threatened to bomb the dude's house was just being a dick, rather than actually being a terrorist.
I'm not sure what alternative world you come from, but threatening to kill someone is a big deal. The definition of terrorism is "the use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims," and since this was over a vote that didn't go the way he wanted it to, it's easily under the umbrella of terrorism.
