What do you do when you rage?

[TheOnceandFutureKing]

I rage till I collapse

 

[Darquenaut]

Back in my old job I did something like slamming my head into a wall... except in reverse. I'd just wheel my chair back against the wall and slam the back of my skull into the wall. Could taste colors afterwards, but hey, at least I felt chipper... *coughs*

Nowadays I just wait until it's good and dark, when everyone else is at home. I hop into my car and take some classic rock/metal with me, crank up the volume, turn up the bass, and just drive in darkness for a half hour or so.

When I was younger I'd break stuff. Sometimes stomp on the controller. You'd be surprised how durable a N64 controller was

Now I just kinda stop playing.

 

[CommyGingerbreadMan]

Person in game: Mute

Game itself: Go Play MW2 and Kill bitches

Person IRL: Ignore/ mean look him, he cannot escape.

 

[Crystal Cuckoo]

I swear. A lot.

 

[reg42]

I hit my desk/keyboard/mouse.

Or at least I used to, I've calmed down a little bit.

Now I just swear at the PC/TV

 

[IceWarm]

I used to punch holes in things. I destroyed the door to my room when I was 16. Now I just drink and play violent video games. Better for me to blow off steam in Modern Warfare 2 than beat somebody else physically.

 

[Puzzles]

Break something I'll regret breaking.

Smoke a cigarette.

 

[Super_Nintendo_Chalmers]

Rage-quit.

 

[ffs-dontcare]

I used to smash my keyboard in a fit of brief rage. It is still in one piece and continues to serve my needs as it always did.

Now I just swear. Out loud.

Things like "oh bloody hell!", "for fuck's sake!", and things of that nature.

 

[Tonimata]

Rage is such a base emotion, and if I couldn't control it, I wouldn't be the cold, calculating bastard that I take pride in being. Instead of raging, I plot against whatever's made me rage to ensure it's prompt and painful destruction. It makes me feel sooo much better.

 

[AvsJoe]

Light rage: suppress it.
Normal rage: suppress it.
Crispy rage: hit a wall, curse and mutter under breath, suppress it.
Extra-Crispy rage: black out and apparently attack everyone in the general vicinity. So I'm told.

Yeah. I told you that. You removed my kneecaps. Quite violently,I might add.

Wow, this is the kind of thing one should remember n'est pas? How are you doing? Recovering well?

 

[Muffinthraka]

I try to squeeze the mouse to death, if I'm playing a console game I may throw the controller (I actually once broke my GBA by smashing it over my knee).

 

[Nomanslander]

Listen to angry music and fume. Otherwise...

Oh great, now I want to watch that episode again...0o

 

[mrbones228]

I just twitch slighly and squeeze my controler.

oh and somtimes I passout and wake up a few hours later with blood on my teeth and another missing house pet.

 

[Zyxx]

Punching a pillow is rarely satisfying enough. If I have something cheap and replaceable, like a pencil or toothbrush, I might break it or throw it across the room. If I'm really pissed - SEVERELY frustrated - I'll sometimes bite myself, usually on the arm or the heel. I'm not entirely sure why, but it's something I've been doing since I was a kid, and it does calm me down. I try not to do it often, though at the moment I have a slightly painful mark on my arm thanks to SMT3: Nocturne.

 

[sh0tgunenclave]

this sounds wierd but i usualy cut to third-person and see myself doing whatever i do...like getting in a fight in the middle of math class. or breaking a foldy table over my knee...

no regrets.

 

[Lonator]

I used to break things, no longer. Now i just turn up music to deafening levels and scream random profanities until i calm down.

 

[asam92]

I can honestly say I have never raged, I have come really close sometimes, I have almost thrown the controller at the TV. And i have shaken a PSP violently in my hands a few times though.
I am such a boring calm person, and cheap cuz I dontwanna break anything, If i was wealthy I would prolly Rage all the time.

 

[blarg363]

I almost snaped a controller in half once i felt it sorta crunched a little and i quickly snaped out of it thinking "oh crap! $50 gone" fortunately no real damage was done (damn tkken 6 >=( ).
