Perhaps, but it could have been something I completely overlooked too.

He's not complained as far as I'm aware, probably one of his experiments gone wrong.Xenon wrote:Love how young Master just sits by and puts up with these appalling stereotypes.
Had you wrote it like "I can't really imagine Master getting genuinely angry about something, but maybe throw a pencil on the floor and yell 'ow fiddlesticks'.", I would totally quote that and throw it in my signature.Xenon wrote:I can't really imagine him getting genuinely angry about something.

Sounds like me, really. Dad usually gets pretty quiet when angry, but the only times I've seen him actually get physical was my idiot brother, but dad only has resorted to punching the freezer door. Those were only super high tense situations too.Master wrote:Hmm, I think the worst I've done physically is slam a few doors when it comes to being angry. I think I tend to be more verbally hurtful in such cases.

Punching bag is something that would be useful for those rare occasions I get furious.

Pretty much what I tend to do now, gosh what a pansie I have become.Xenon wrote:I think it's better to avoid arguments at all costs. You become a prisoner of your mind if you enter into shouting matches and it'll definitely put you in a bad mood for the rest of the day. If you're right, accept the other person is an idiot and move on. If you're wrong, acknowledge your failings and concede defeat (and say sorry, if the opposite sex is involved)!
What my past self would have done.Hoodcom wrote:Yeah, it's best to avoid arguments at all costs, I agree. There are some people willing to stab you or shoot you over the stupidest arguments possible.
Good question. I really have to dig deep into the thoughts in my head to find out. I remember one time I was about 8 years old; I didn't get what I wanted, probably either a video game or something like that, so I slammed the bathroom doors and my door, and I believe I screamed as well. My parents then explained why I couldn't get the item, so I calmed down.Hoodcom wrote:Hmm, what's the angriest you've been?Ray502 wrote:I haven't seen much of a continuation of my actions when it comes to getting angry, but I tend to take deep breaths and intentionally talk in a blunt way.

But what about those arguments when both sides think they are right? Does one side just give up and say the other is right? Even that giving up side thinks he/she is right? I find that to occur every once in a while with my parents. Both think they are right, but 80% of the time my dad gives up and say my mom is right.Xenon wrote:If you're right, accept the other person is an idiot and move on.
