..........However, I have observed that things usually turn out better when I am polite. Reverse pyschology!!! When you keep your temper under control, the other person that is ranting and raving now looks all alone in his cess pool of life. |

But kicking ass still feels better, and you're treating them fairly by letting them know for sure what you think of them.
The master said: "If you reward injury with kindness, with what, then, will you reward kindness ?
You should repay an injury with justice and kindness with kindness." - Confucius

I used to have a wicked temper that I didn't control very well. But with children and maturity I learned not to pop off at every "injustice". At the old age of 71 I find it much easier to be mellow. But every once in awhile I still get hot under the collar.
Politicians still make me very angry when they betray the trust of the people who elected them. In other words, I'm usually P.O. with them ;D
