    Play GTA and take my bitter hatred out on the poor people of Liberty City.

    Or some soothing Slayer / Pantera:

    I write a very angry and abusive note,then tear it up and set it on fire.:)

    Very cathartic. (I love that word)

    Go out on the bike and do a bit of interval training (5 minutes going full pelt, 5 minutes of a breather) for an hour or so....that or play something like Oblivion, Call of Duty whilst listening to Vivaldi.

    I punch things. Or else play cod or go on a long walk.

    I follow the trend of every teenage girl (even though I'm a lad in my mid-20's) on Facebook, by updating my status with a serious of inane, drawn out and annoying rants.

    Seeing those likes flooding in is a great healer to my anger.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭JJayoo


    Gym and assault Mr punching bag

    Get a hammer. There are very few problems in life that can't be solved by hitting something with a hammer.

    Either i go for a walk with my dog, or loose myself in a Youtube clicking vortex haha!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,921 ✭✭✭Remmy


    I like to listen to heavy metal music and lift some weights. It's a great release particularly since I have the habit of just bottling things up .

    What about sitting down with the person that caused the requirement to vent in the first place, and calmly explaining why they annoyed you. Tried it once or twice and I got better results than going around in a s**t mood for hours.

    Ya totally :)

    :eek: did i type that first bit out loud?

    I rarely get stressed/angry. When I do get angry, I get this intense burning rage inside, and I just explode with a very aggressive and degrading verbal onslaught against others. I tend not to use violence because words can cut deeper, depending. I try to keep a cool head, but when I am wronged in certain ways I make sure I get revenge.

    Its even worse because I am a very easy-going person usually and I tend to end confrontations among other people.

    Just today, I was at school and because I have longish hair (I'm a lad) I got a few looks and some kid from a younger year laughed at me (god forbid I chose to look how I want to and don't have a near buzzcut like everyone else) while I was on my way to class. When I got into the classroom I could barely sit still and had to contain my urges to go back out and slam the kids head against the wall and beat him while he was down. Awful I know, but at the time I really wanted to do it.

    I rant to my flatmate, who is the calmest man on the planet and generally rationalises something that I haven't thought of. That or I go for a couple pints and have a laugh. No point in staying annoyed, only bothers yourself.

    Someday I dream of hacking into the census form and placing the word cathartic above catholic and see how many tick it.

    I post in Ranting & Raving and yell at my computer/other inanimate objects in Spanish. Spanish is a great language for expressing anger :pac:

    (¿QUÉ COÑO HACES?! HIDEPUTA ¡VETE A LA MIERDA Y DEJA DE ENOJARME!)

    Gym or sex. IF they aren't freely available, R&R.

    Ranting and Raving, it's a forum to go have a good auld whinge in :) See LizT's post above.

    I deep throat some hookers, smear my load on their knockers and rub it in with my asscheeks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 996 ✭✭✭Neadine


    I have recently been told I need to be more aware of the way I speak to people!
    over sensitive fcukwits

    Even more problems could be solved by hitting someone with a hammer, several times.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,573 ✭✭✭pragmatic1


    I let it build like a pressure cooker and then usually unload on some poor fcuker for a minor slight.

    By listening to music,I find it great for releasing any anger that I have inside of me.

    I am not angry about what I was angry about anymore. I ate a whole load of junk food: half a pizza, half a bag of chips with mayonnaise and half a 1.5 litre bottle of coke!:o Now I feel sad, fat, bloated, ashamed and disappointed in myself for eating disgusting junk food. It wasn't even good.

    Good old anger shoved under a rake of food to fester for another day, and it's not even gone, it's lurking behind the self loathing now. I'm not having a go at you either, I did this to.

    Now I chop wood or shoot sh!t, I used to do something else too but wouldn't be allowed say it here;)
