Have you ever heard that phrase, 'So made I couldn't see straight."
What a funny phrase. Who gets that mad?
Sometimes, I get irritated when I have to deal with annoying
people on the phone. But not mad. I'd be mad if I got cheated.
Or, if I worked really hard for some
online company and they refused to pay. That would make me steaming mad.

Impatience, I am very very impatient and I start getting mad if I have to wait for too terribly wrong. Sometimes I've taken it out on the people around me, and well then that's gotten me into trouble when I was a little kid. I've been better with patience, but still get annoyed at the very least. As for other things, I can't think of anything other then abuse and neglect of animals and children, that makes me pissing mad!

Very mad. Guess cause there's so much
injustice involved.

our water bill.
$600 per quarter.
and that's with conservation.
they have 14 separate charges on it,keep giving themselves raises,and it's quality has been failing consistantly for the past year and a half.
so,for this 2400 dollar a year "luxury",we'll probably be boiling it soon.

Hello beauty queen. Recently I have been very mad with those good-for-nothing so-called guides from the local teaching research center who are keen on formalism. I hate their dogmatism and formalism that makes us teachers unhappy with. They are not popular with us teachers in the local county. They make us nervous with their dogmatism and formalism. Yesterday they came to inspect our school for the whole day and they made us so tense. We don't welcome them as they make us mad...Thanks god. They are gone.

actually, beautyqueen, people do get so mad that they really can't see straight. I was married to a man that would get that angry & over the most ridiculous things you can imagine! Anger raises your adrenelin level and the angrier you get...the greater the level of adrenelin. This man when angry could and did lift our refrigerator and toss it across the kitchen. He was very violent. In fact, I think that I got upset enough when with him that I couldn't see straight. Could have been fear more than rage...not sure but both raise adrenelin. Did you know you could get addicted to your own addrenelin if it is raised often enough? you can. It is quite common in cases of domestic abuse. Learned that in councelling.

there are many things, that makes me tick. but the idea of not achieving my plans and getting screwed is one thing that makes me angry the most because you have to think again and compromise. some times my co staff would see my grim face when ever that happens.and some times when my hubby is not updating me on being late night home and not calling or texting me as well.

I am mad at all the sexism in the world, and how engrained on our society it is. Howcome a kind can marry a woman and make her a queen, but a queen's husband isn't a king, for example The queen and king should be EQUAL, not the male having more authority. Same in every day life. One gender should not have authority over the other. This just gets me mad.

I don't really get mad. I get annoyed, but it's soon overcome. I find if I can talk it through with somebody, it's the best way around it. I suppose it's just not my nature to get really mad... life's too short for that. I don't like conflict at the best of times, so I would probably walk away from a situation that would potentially rile me up, and forget about it.
Brightest Blessings.

I admit that I have a very bad temper (people tell me I inherited that from my Dad LOL) and I work really hard to control it. What makes me the most angry is someone mistreating or hurting one of my daughters. My older one dates a boy that is emotionally abusive (and I suspect has been physically abusive too but I've never been able to obtain proof). For over a year, she and I argued to the point of screaming over him. I literally made myself physically ill over the whole thing (I have high blood pressure even on a good day). I consider that "not being able to see straight" kind of mad. For anything else, I will lose my temper and, more than likely, raise my voice... but it's short-lived.

I get mad when I am trying my best to walk away from a bad or negative situation and the other person refuses to let things go. I get extremely irritated when someone older than me references my age in a debate or discussion as if my age were something more than a factual observation. It pisses me off when my age is used as the sole reason as to why I do not share a particular opinion or position of someone else. My age is fine as long as I agree with these individuals, but the minute I voice a differing opinion I'm simply "young", "brainwashed", and/or "inexperienced". This is the quickest way for an elder to lose my vote of confidence. An individual should be able to back up his or her position with rational thought not by simply acknowledging the fact that I am on 25 years old.
