    may be not.

    we all have times when we are infuriated by some things, but we express the anger and frustration in different ways, some use physical violence, some think of revenge, some convert emotional energy into physical energy and run, work out or whatever.

    it is better to express our feelings on this forum that to actually go out there and carry out the actions we plan - THAT would be nasty.

    that would just annoy me more I think to type it all up. Long story. The summary is that they misdiagnosed the issue with my car twice, made me pay for repairs that were not needed, created much inconvenience (unreliable car, having to make appointments to get the car seen, various delays due to their inorganisation and unprofessionalism, making me wait for ages in the garage, etc etc etc), and were not even apologetic about it for one second. And when the car was finally 'fixed' (for the third time), something else they were working on broke down (due to their previous work).

    But I think they got the idea that I was slightly pissed off because eventhough the final repair (ie the true cause of the issue) cost more than what I first paid (not a lot more though, and that's surprinsingly convenient too ), they didn't ask me to pay again. I think they might have feared that I would just throw their computer at them or something. Which I would have done, btw.

    Curses are good. Find something vaguely ritualistic and focus your anger out through it. It's a bit Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but it's a good short term fix.

    Long term, you may want to look at a more peaceful way of relating to the world.

    I'll reserve that and the wine for next week when I'm sure the car is indeed completely fixed and working (the issue was around not starting on demand).

    there might be a bit of that... but seriously, they've been incredibly unprofessional, and if I hadn't protested, they would also have been ripping me off happily. Well worth losing one's temper here...

    Virtual Haagen Daas and plenty of

    I totally understand (not particularly about the car - don't and can't own one) but I can remember the carving knife kind of seeingRED well enough to sympathise...

    Puzzle (compete against the clock) Computer games tend to help me if I'm mildly to middling angry now.

    When I was really angry my parents knew to stay clear of me if I had the soundtrack from "The Phantom of the Opera" blaring at full blast..

    I can't think of anything more inventive than things already stated for Severe Anger though..

    this works best if you have a couple of sizes of sledge hammer - but with care can be done one large one

    secure victim - and start by smashing the joints - individually - of one hand (including the wrist I work this out to be 16 joints) and one foot, take a break have a glass of wine a masssage - and then do the other hand and foot

    oh and while you are being pampered you leave victim watching telly tubbies loudly!

    after second hand & foot - time for some more indulgence for you and telly tubbies for victim.

    next set of joints is elbow & knee one pair at a time, then hip & shoulder

    after this you can leave it at that or you can then progress to smashing all the bones inbetween if your feeling truely distructive

    another use for sledge hammer is discover said persons most treasured possesion - restrain them and then pulverise it to dust in front of them - rather quicker and less messy than the first option

    There are a couple of 'Expose and Shame' TV progs who do a good job of putting rogue traders out of business and you could do it anonimously

    tactics just think of the revenge you can have later you need you get your car back in one piece before you murder them

    Although try not to damage your car in the process, or you'll be needing to find a mechanic.

    And this could be the start of a bloodthirsty vicious cycle with no end in sight...

    Superglue their doors together! Someone did that to a Bank in Bristol - they were closed for quite a few hours!

    So, Caro, now that you've calmed down and can tell us about it. Were there any survivors?

    my god it's hard to believe this was just over a year ago now - feels like it was only a couple of months ago.

    I'm afraid since then there's been a few other targets of my wrath and I may have let my imagination wander a few times and might even have planned a few, hmmm, other ways to extremely painfully murder a few people, who might have been relocation and estate agents. All hypothetically of course



    May be I need anger management therapy.

    Don't think of it as "anger", try to see your emotion as passion.
