I dont really tend to get uncalm in the first place very often, anger is a relatively redundant emotion these days so its one I tend to avoid generally.
Just try and look objectively at how you feel and wether its doing you any good.

Breathing the right way makes a big difference though.

Jump in a car and drive off a bridge. Do it all the time. You should try it, please.

Common theme there in those two posts, and its one that potentially could drop frustration levels for lots of passionford users if Dojj does it

You could try singing...................

When trying to express oneself, it's frankly quite absurd,
To leaf through lengthy lexicons to find the perfect word.
A little spontaniaty keeps conversation keen,
You need to find a way to say, precisely what you mean...

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrosicous!
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious.

And if that fails try the driving off a bridge method??

+1 on knocking one out, shoot your load into a container of some description, offer to make a brew for everyone and spike your nemesis' drink with your muck.

aka a double whammy.

Nothing of any consequence happens to Dojj, he simply makes a massive deal out of the sort of minor occurances in his life that most of us also experience but take no notice of.

in my job, about 30% of the time it's a case of life or death, so when i get a call to ask if something is still there after it's been discovered its missing, and i explain that it's not there, i don't then expect my name to be plastered all over the companies email saying that i knew where it was all along

and when i called up that department and they say that me telling them what's happening is the first they've heard about it, then i can't even vent my frustration on them

and after all that, i said i wouldn't post about the idiots who i work with

but yes, i went for a long walk in our fridge to chill out for a bit, but i was properly fuming and about to blow my top big style for about an hour after the event

bitch
