Short Fuse

[BlueLancer]

Can control it now, but man did I have a short fuse just years ago... Losing my bus ticket or the computer tilting at the wrong time for no reason after I had typed 40 pages without saving.. Quite a few broken keyboards, mice, 1 monitor, cellphone...

 

 

 

Now I can lose $3k in a poker hand and not feel anything 8-) After a few of these 'experiences' you learn rage fixes nothing, it can just end up making your situation worse because you need to buy new stuff you broke.

 

 

 

I barely ever get into fights though. The guy has to be a real idiot, and I don't think I've met that many in real life. That's the only reason I'd pick on someone (making unnecessary comments, pushing people in a queue, stepping on peoples feet..)

My figurative fuse is pretty long. It takes a lot to get me mad or to offend me. The only person I'll really snap at is my brother, but that's just because we're close enough. Other than that I just don't let things bother me, and I'm just mellow about life.

I get semi-mad extremly quickly, well.. a lot quicker then other people. But to actually get me mad takes a lot. I've dealt with lots of people and I'm not going to blow up on one of the 100 million idiots just because they are acting idioticly. (sp?) (lol, that came out kind of akward).

I have a really really short fuse, I also get very angry.

 

 

 

I do try now to control it as best I can.

 

 

 

 

 

It got so bad once my parents had to call the police because they were scared I was going to seriously hurt someone.

 

I was nearly charged with Domestic Violence.

 

 

 

I'm only 16..

 

17 in one week.

 

 

 

It's not good, And I'm not proud.

I am the most laid back guy you could meet :wink: but lots of crap happens to me, even when i got nothing to do with it. Usually i just let it all wash away and it'll sort itself out, but i recently came close to punching someone who was irritating me and had been for several months...very close :ohnoes: But i just took a breath and thanked myself that i didn't stoop to his level so overall i would say my fuse is fairly long but if i have to do revenge, i'd be more likely to go for the "Piss in the coffee" approach other than a straight out fight, cause lets face it, fighting at school certainly attracts the crowds....

@ thosethebrokes:

 

 

 

I've had similar situations but never as far as the police. My mom always thought I was going to do something stupid when I get really angry. Really I'm all bark and no bite, but after last week I'm not so sure if I'm that anymore.

 

 

 

Has anyone noticed how angry girls get if you pick them up and move them? I got a big lecture from my lady when I moved her to pick up my bible from the pew "you could have asked me to move :x" she says.

 

 

 

side note: Being a christian is probably the only reason why I don't get into fights. Last year this kid punches me in the face and I turned the other cheek. And you know what? It was the hardest choice in my life to not hit him. I thought about hitting him for a week straight. But you know what, now I'm happy I didn't hit him back because he has a much more difficult life then me and I didn't want to make it more difficult for him by hurting him.
