I should've added, "makes phone calls". There's one that will always stick in my mind that goes like this:

If you're dead or in jail, then feel free to ignore this message, but if you're not dead or in jail, then you should know that I really don't appreciate ...

I have heard you say "grrr that makes me angry", but perhaps I find you too cute to understand it as actual anger.

I wanted a "I don't have enough information to be at all confident of my answer" vote on the last one. I made my best guess, but given that we've never met in person, my lack of having seen you angry isn't shocking. Still, I think almost everyone gets angry sometimes, so I voted anyway. But for all I know, you could be rampaging down the streets and then sitting down to write interesting polite little things in LiveJournal. [grin]

It's hard to judge someone strictly by what they write in their LJ. And I know that my LJ spins me in a specific way that doesn't necessarily reflect how people experience me in person.

Thanks for participating even with limited data.

Anger sample for the nice doctor... buddhafiddle June 19 2006, 19:36:58 UTC

You have one reaction to being angry that runs contrary to almost everyone else I know. You (a.) start talking much faster, and (b.) become, to all appearances, hyperlogical.

Do you think that you get angry often? Do you differentiate between being angry and being irritated?

I remember the first time I saw you angry. We were in high school. I forget what it was for. But I do remember thinking "OMG I am SOOOO effing glad she's not pissed at me". You didn't say anything. When you're annoyed, you make statements: I should, they should, it should, we should, why isn't... When you're PISSED? Truly pissed? You don't really say anything, but you get a wierd little crease inbetween your eyes and you don't smile. You get tightlipped and tense and it's very scary.
And hopefully, you'll never direct it at me. Because I really don't want to be on the receiving end of that blast when it comes.
