There have been situations where I've been on the brink of assaulting people. I get annoyed easily and it doesn't take much to piss me off. Anyone else here have a short temper?

I used to. When I was younger I used to always be up for a fight. Over the little things as well. Someone looks at me wrong, you cut me off in my car, you accidently bump into me at a club, it was bad.

Over years though that has done a complete 360. I am now very hard to get mad. I never see a need in it. Either people flaming me on message boards, or people saying stuff to me in real life. I just do not care anymore. Unless I get touched of course.......

I really do not know what cured my temper. It was as if one day I woke up and said, "It really is not that serious, is it?" Plus I did hurt a couple people really really bad. I think when you possiblly damage someone for the rest of their life over something really silly

I used to think I was pretty even-tempered, until I met my ex. I have never met someone who was so good at knowing exactly which buttons to push to drive someone into a frothing rage. I never truly understood the phrase "seeing red" until I met her.

I use to be a volatile loose cannon and would sometimes go off on condescending arrogant tirades. I had a weird temperament. I would be the most laid back type of person but when I felt wronged and no one would seem to care I would let my emotions run me. The key was people not caring at all and acting like it wasn't a big deal when it would be to them in their shoes. I'd empathize w/them but when it came to me it was like deal with it. I would mostly get angry at insincerity. I'd have control but preferred to let it out on anything in my radius instead of holding it in. When I calmed down evrything else would be in an upheaval. Some stuff I would "ignore" but in fact would bite my tongue and let shit build up until I reached my boiling point later on down the road with the person or situation and who knows how I would react then.

Nowadays I've learned to take almost full control and if I get angry, I mellow out much quicker but at times depending on the situation it can take me almost a day to fully cool off. Thankfully those situations are very rare for me now. I'll utilize my gift of diplomacy that I've always had but seemed to selectively use with more favor towards anger.

Anger management "problems" at least make life a bit interesting and even thrilling at times. People who don't have the "Hulk Smash!" aspect to their personality wouldn't understand how it is to go through life like that. I manage to keep things in control most of the time. I've had quite a history of destroying things, yelling, and the occasional hole punched in a wall. My anger goes to such an extreme point, simple things like counting aren't really enough....it actually feels more healthy to me if I smash/destroy something. After the violent outburst ends...I always feel much better. It's like unleashing this side of your soul that's purely evil and destructive...and there's a certain feeling of power that's mixed in there as well...it feels good and satisfying...and again; powerful. It's like you actually feel stronger in that "mode", due to the adrenaline, and perhaps some psychological/mental component going on as well. Words don't really do it justice; you have to be in the moment to truly know. I wouldn't have it any other way, really. I enjoy having that "other side" around.

Oh I understand your feeling. My mom is the polar opposite of what I used to be and even what I am now cause she's SOOOO calm, cool and collected. I have never seen her in my life get angry. If she does it's nothing, she'll be more frustrated than anything. My dad is too, but he's the one who passed down the toughness. He'll have his moments but nothing compared to mine cause my problem was always "how the fuck can you step all over me like that when I'm being cool and not expect me to infinity stomp you?" My family has said they have no idea where my fits of rage came from, but I'm thinking it came from different ancestors. Like I said, I can turn into the Hulk with rage but at other times I could be as docile and stoic like I was smoking a peace pipe like a calm Indian.

Look at my name HATRED EDGE. Just who you think I am? I've gotten so pissed at people that I've told them I would kill them and kill their parents for letting them live. I have such a bad temper people bigger and stronger than me are afraid that I would kill them. This is what I've said to someone:

"I like that you are not afraid of me. That would take away the fun. I want you to think you can stop me just so that when I catch you, I can break you. And that is what I want. I want the pleasure of seeing you suffer. I want to be the one that breaks the hope in you and makes you realize that you are going to DIE. I want to see the look on your face when you know you are going to die and that I will be the one to kill you. I will make you cry tears of suffering and bleed your hope through your heart. I will kill you slowly just enough to break every bone in your body then I shall let you live. And then just when you think you are getting better, that you will make it, THAT is when I will kill you."








I'm joking. But I would want to see the look on someone's face if I did.

Ever since I was little I've been ranked on, picked on the works. Now I know that's part of life. That's fine. But what the fuck is wrong with people when they see someone who leaves people alone and they think :"Hey let's fuck with that kid right there." I'm a fucking human being so I'm born with "shortcomings" and flaws and that I accept. I'm not insecure about shit but when I don't do shit to you and you fuck with me for what stupid ass, ignorant reason, hate for you builds inside, and the knowledge that if I kill you it won't change shit because they are millions of shit faced fuckers like that wherever you go just like that, really pisses me off. It's a battle you just can't win. And for what? Because I'm not what someone wants? I'm don't satisfy their narrow-minded, ignorant views? I'm not black because I don't dress like I'm from the hood or some shit? That's what pisses me off. For me it isn't about shortcomings. I know my flaws. It's the dumb fucks who make life hard on other people for their amusement. That's where my short temper stems for. Hate for them.

That's why I have a short temper. Fustration with humanity as a whole. The only people I call ugly as assholes.

Now imagine the same situation, except instead of trying to shoot a basket, you're trying to dragon punch a little Lego guy, and the guy who slaps the ball out of your hand is actually a giant purple thing that dumps a bunch of bombs right in your face as a gray haired dude jumps in and blasts you with a laser cannon three times for a total of 46 seconds.

Yeah I always wonder about that shit too. I keep watching these crime documentaries about killers psyche and it scares me I always worry that I'll accidentally kill someone somehow.

I have been taken away from the cops for my temper. I seriously hope I do not kill someone someday in terms of fighting.

Back in 2005 I used to want to fight people over the smallest things. To this day I cant take ball busting even if I cover it up well. Never got the idea behind it. These days for some reason, maybe college and the news makes you less naive, Im the guy who laughs at the guys trying to pick fights.

I have always been that smaller dude and to this day I still hold that chip on my shoulder of having to prove myself physically, in different positive and negative ways. I just hope nothing catches up to me and I do something I regret.

You wouldn't like some of my friends. They bust my balls for shit that I used to do and don't do anymore. I never really bust their balls about stuff concerning them unless they go too far with me about me. It's always "wtf man I'm not that type of person anymore." It's almost like they miss the old me, but can't let it go when they see a completeness to that other side I have. Like a complete Dr. Jekyll with no Mr. Hyde, they miss that wild Hyde side and feel the need to remind me :confused: Remind me fucking me...I'm the one who possessed the qualities but dismissed them from their life but I need to be reminded??? It's not like I forgot, I lived it. People don't like to see other people change sometimes cause they're waiting for that next fuck up.

I know what you mean but it's not even about that. Being at peace w/yourself doesn't mean allowing people to walk over you and you sit back and smile like Ghandi. Some people lash out because they feel violated, others just have no self control whatsoever. Most people in this thread admit to anger, but not being so consumed that they charge at anything that crosses their path w/out saying excuse me sir.

Yeah I dont get some guys. I always thought you talk smack if youre sure you can take out a guy and I thought it was like a regular social rule growing up as a kid. So whenever someone talked smack even almost in a friendly way Id get defensive and be totally offended.

Also with your situation dont expect that to change often. You could be cooler than all of them but as you move up the ranks, theyll see that and bust on you to make themselves feel comfortable. It uneases people to see someone quickly become cooler than what they once were.

First year of college = semester 1 be really quiet and dont party with the rest of my room mates + semester 2 I changed but they treated me like that "weird guy that didnt like to party."

In other words, they could KNOW and see that you've changed but theyd still treat you the same. Notice how much cooler you feel when you hang out with other people or other friends. Its not the same and you almost want to hide that your other friends bust on you so much.

Not great for your esteem and I cant figure it out myself. Id say just bust on them back and do it harder. They will try to gang on you, be warned, but you prolly already knew. Whether its fighting or verbiage, when you're better at it than the other guy and he has some loss of value or status at stake, his mind and actions will change about you.

I was the opposite. I partied hard my first week of college almost until the very end. During the later stages I started to mellow out and wasn't interested in parties, bars or clubs anymore because I'd been doing that shit since 1998, my entire 20's. My 20's was the typical wild 20's that a lot of people go through but some didn't have the pleasure of experiencing and learning from. Taking negatives and turning them into positives. Now I'm that guy who doesn't like to go bar hopping anymore when I used to be all up on it.

Now some of my friends are just climbing that wild hill that I climbed way back when I was in my early 20's. Others can't get over the fact that I've left those days behind and tend to only remember me from 2003-2006. I feel it makes you a stronger person to have went through all of that, noticed the error or your ways and moved on to mentally and philosophically mature quicker than others think they've matured and remained grounded w/o seeming better than anyone else.

My friends know that I've changed tremendously. One of my close friends since day one of college always knew I was more quick minded, intelligent in lots of areas (his word not mine) and was looked at as a bright well spoken individual. His calling card was he saw my alcoholic binges, getting high w/other friends and just indulging in outside college activities. To him that was my weakness that he could use against me to say "Will's not as perfect as you make him out to be" just to make his shortcomings not seem that bad, but I was more cognizant of it than he thought I was. He thought he was more privy to it than I was just because he saw it from his POV. Now whenever he even brings up anything I just tell him it was the past because he loves saying "it was the past" concerning him or anything that bothers me personally about my own business that I want to confide in him about as a friend.

I saw his tendencies but never thought hey let me record him on my cell phone for shits and giggles. That's just not in my nature to do shit like that because I believe some things should just remain in that moment. You had to be there type of mentality. I was taped in a swanky club in Pasadena and projected on a big screen after passing out on a sofa next to friends and other party goers. That wasn't embarrassing but more of a wtf are you doing to yourself realization after the fact. He and many others couldn't have handled a situation as gracefully and reflective as that.

I remember during one major tourny people were giggling at me when I got owned in the first game by some really good marvel player.. I came back the 2nd match mad as hell and won the match easily. It was just straight up rape because I was furious and mashing like a mad man. I think my hail storms were doing like twice the damage due to my ferocious mashing :lol:

Well, in my case I'm usually calm only certain situations would get me mad. I was competitively passionate about tournaments at one point and if I did anything wrong even if I won--I would get angry with myself. That's the past, and I don't get like that. The only person that can really make me that mad is my gf.
