bocoo-man is so totally wrong! Anger is a legitimate emotion, and as an emotion, a feeling, we have no control over it. What we CAN control is what we DO with anger, or any emotion. Being angry isn't a choice, punching things when one is angry is the choice - see the difference?!
Okay, with that said, to answer your question: One time I was so angry with my husband that I just started throwing things at him. HIS things - like coffee cups, remote controls, that sort of thing - because he wouldn't LISTEN to what I was saying. I did a lot of damage that fight, and 16 years later HE still remembers and brings it up. LOL Another time I was driving with my then boyfriend and someone cut us off in the car. They didn't just cut us off, they were SO rude about it. Flipping us off and being a$$es about. I started hollering at them through the window and they decided to turn around and come back and fight. My ex was SO mad at ME because he was a non-violent type and thought I'd get his butt kicked! LOL Traffic prevented the other car from making it to us, though, so we'll never know if they were gonna kill us or not! LOL
Usually, though, anger is masking some other emotion. Often it's fear. Knowing that, I've worked to control my reactions. I do real well most of the time. Having kids helped, because there was no way I was going to hurt them! I must've succeeded because they're teenagers now and don't believe me that I have a horrible temper!

when my boyfriend at the time kept me prisoner in out apartment for 3 days. He would actually sleep in front of the door so I couldn't get out. Mind you, we were on the second floor, so jumping out the window was never an option. I finally got away and made it to my car. I locked the doors and was about to drive away when I saw him standing right in front of the car. I gave him to the count of 3 and then I ran his *** over. No serious damage was done to him, but I hope his ankle still gives him trouble 13 yrs. later. When it hurts him, he can think of me and how he got what he deserved.

When I discover my ex was cheating on me because his gf came to my house looking for him.! Even though we were pretty much done, this so call "marriage" was a faker, I got pretty upset, I guess it was just a matter of pride.
I dumped him, but it took me a while to get over my anger, never felt it like my loss, it was my anger that got the best of me!!

When I transcribed the entire song "shadowland" from the lion king, and the band had agreed to play it. But when it came time to rehearse they were all "I don't WANT to. I don't FEEL like it. I can't SYNCOPATE. My INSTRUMENT is too HEAVY." They didn't seem to care that I had given up lunch period for about two months to work on it. They drove me freakin MAD. We ended up not performing it.

When people get angry it is to control others. It is a choice and choose not to get angry. It also stop you from listening to some good advice. Instead choose to laugh.
