You know what? When someone's pissed enough that you can tell right away that they're pissed,
don't fucking say "don't be so angry" because they'll want to pick something up and smack you with it.

:grr:

1. Oh yeah. Never tell a seething person to calm down.
They will calm down alright; AFTER the nuclear explosion.

3. Any kind of command is really a stupid idea.
I mean really... does this jackass think I enjoy being pissed off?

Aside from smacking him, I also wanted to say, "It'll pass, oompaloompaguy... get the fuck out of my face and let me deal."

How much sense does it take to just get the hell away as quietly and quickly as possible?

Morons... everywhere.

5. If he wants to help he can let me hit him.
I could really use a good sparring match right about now.

6. I think you should keep something to punch at the office.
I have an old stuffed toy that is my punching bag. It keeps me from punching my co-workers.

10. Is that satisfying?
I'd want something with resistance...

But no... I hardly ever get that upset. The combination of holiday stress and STBE dumbassery just got to me there for a moment. :)

12. It helps take the edge off.
If, however, you see me squeezing my stress ball like it's going out of style, stay away. :)

13. Exactly!
Stay away... that's the considerate thing to do.

I mean unless it's a close friend or someone I'm chummy with... then I might ask if they'd like to talk.

Otherwise - skeedaddle. :)

18. Not that I remember...
I'm sure that was done when I was a kid, but I have mercifully forgotten most of my childhood.

11. When I encounter someone as angry as I just was...
I just get the hell away fast and speak to them only if absolutely necessary, and then as briefly and succinctly as possible.

19. I've also found that laughing at them is not a good solution either
especially if you point and laugh.
