What really makes you angry?

Question

I mean blind rage, you want to punch someone in the face angry? I'm extremely laid back, so I'm just curious.

Answer 1

When people abuse their children - mentally or physically.

Answer 2

Traffic
George Bush
Tony Blair
Robert Mugabe
Ehud Olmert

Answer 3

Pulling into a restaurant and seeing 25 empty parking spaces wasted on the handicapped. I can see having maybe 3-4 spaces availalbe, but a whole row? Every store or eating establishment you go to, 90% of the hadicapped spaces are unoccupied. Why? Because there are to many in the first place. And typically, when they are used by a vehicle with a sticker? The handicapped is usually just an overweight person. Obesity is not a handicap, just a lack of will.

Answer 4

I actually don't care much about other people's behaviours, I don't nit-pick at work and I have an over-flowing positive outlook. Two things that I absolutely hate.
1.) When I am training for an upcoming event (10k, marathon, triathlon, etc...) and I get injured... usually caused by myself, I just get angry because I can no longer train and meet my goals... this sucks a$$
2.) When I am already late for something and then I run into stop & go traffic, especially on a weekend when traffic is not expected... I live in Cali and usually you know when traffic occurs and you avoid it, but when I'm stuck in traffic I'd wish everyone else would just stay home and leave the roads to me...

Answer 5

I am also extremely laid back .I will help anyone who ask and always try my best to pull 150% of the workload. I never ask anyone to do anything that i wouldn't do myself. I lead by example and think do as I say not as I do is probably one of the stupidest things I could ever hear. I get livid when See someone abuse a child or and elderly person. I truly believe that there is a special place in Hell, more heat and more pain for people who are abusive to helpless people and those who abuse their power to harm others are the scum of the earth. Well you ask and now you know.

Answer 6

When people (the entire family both sides except me and my hubby) can not respect my choice to feed my child an organic, sugar free (or at least low sugar) diet and instead purchase child marketed snacks for him because they are child marketed and, therefore believe they are child appropriate. Just because a well known company makes them doesn't mean it's fit for human consumption. I don't want him living off those horrible artificial puff things anytime he's with someone other than me or his father. Don't get me started on that horrible brightly colored cereal that was purchased as a finger food for my one year old that I was tricked into allowing them to buy because on the phone they told me it was naturally sweetened and whole grain with a good amount of iron! Then I can't protest because I already agreed to it without realizing it had man made coloring agents and SOME sugar.

Answer 7

Two things;

1. People who work in retail that "pretend" to be stupid, so they can avoid doing any work. You come up to the counter, or worse, the drive thru, and they talk like they have marbles in their mouth, with every other word is slang. Give me a break! Just plain LAZY!!

2. People who drive 10-15 miles per hour UNDER the posted speed, worse; in the LEFT lane of a 4-lane highway, even WORSE, matching the speed of someone equally driving slow in the RIGHT lane, especially big trucks. Cars are backed up for miles while they crawl along.

Answer 8

what really makes me angry is to see a customer give a clerk a difficult time in a store when the clerk is not responsible for prices or the amount of help etc. Sometimes cussing to the clerk and the clerk is supposed to allow the customer to rattle on and not say a word. This is outrageous. I assume because we live in a summer resort town and the store owner worship the summer customers. This has happened many times..including my daughter.But when it happened to an older woman and she was crying and I was so upset that anyone especially a male customer with his wife along with him could use horrible language to this poor woman that I left and went to the florist and bought her a red rose in a bud vase and brought it back to her and told her don't let them upset you because even though they may be summer people who own homes on the beach the obviously lack class. She was so surprised and smiled from ear to ear.

Answer 9

My husband is of a different race than I am. I am usually a laid back person, but whenever I hear comments when we are out in public together, I get furious. Luckily it doesn't occur often. Maybe 2-3 times in the 4 years we've known/ each other.

Answer 10

Mostly my family-we don't relate well to each other, our perspectives on most every topic differ, and they made (and continue to) make poor decisions in life that not only jeopardize their futures, but their offspring's as well. In reality, I love everyone, even when they make it hard on me. However, it would be easier to love them if I didn't feel emotionally crippled by their choices and behavior.

That brings me to the second thing I absolutely can't stand-sarcasm. Light and witty humor is delightful, but blatant, bitter sarcasm hurts and pains its listeners. I find most people think they're funny, but they're actually using sarcasm to berate someone to raise their ego a few points. A terrible way to score better self-esteem, if you ask me.

Lastly, I'd have to say people who pass judgment on those seeking spirituality using unconventional methods. Although it is inarguably dangerous, if one thinks that attaining enlightenment comes through psychadelic trances, meditation, crystal elixirs, or worshipping holy food, let them do it.

Answer 11

If I saw a young person disrespecting an older one, like in a bus or so, not standing up to offer the seat, that makes me angry. I also hate mad drivers who risk their own life and others: they speed on and we reach them at the red light so what for did they do it?
