Does anyone here who's actually been around long enough to have some historical perspective think I come off as an angry person?I've been accused of that by two different posters, one of whom was a more-than-regular poster who I rassled with a lot who no longer posts. The other is a recent upstart who accused me of being an angry person.One time I can let go. Two times I'm wondering what the heck.I think there is a huge difference between anger and passion. I think sometimes I can get passionate about something, but it's not anger. Have we really become such the generation of mamby-pamby-ultra-tolerant-please-don't-offend wimps that being passionate is offensive now?Once agan, geez...

Angry?
-
no you're fine, now I tend to get moody.
-
No you don't come across as angry. You were just making a good point which the other poster didn't agree with, so he resorted to a personal attack.
-
i will say you sometimes come across as very blunt. My only complaint...but I percieve this cocky arrogant attitude from your posts, but I know better.
-
Im an angry mother fucker, consider it my trademark and what Im known for among my friends.
You on the other hand I think are too far in the OTHER dirction and dont get angry enough.
You seem far to calm to me, need a night of drinking fighting and fucking and you should be right as rain. -
hahahaha gravitykiller damien, will be his name...HAHAHA

Some of the best times I had with my buddies were going out drinking and whoring and 9 times of 10 we got into a brawl while we were out bcause one of us stupid drunk bastards were hitting on married girls or girls iwth thier bf there and when called on it we just hit them and relied on everyone else there to back our stupid ass up when all his buddies decided to stomp the fuck out of us.
Good times remebered fondly :laughing: we were drunk stoopid (no typo I meant to spell it that way) bastards and it was a great time, free style walking thru a bar of crowded people were you never alter course no matter who gets in the way and what they will do to you after you run head first into them, scoring with some local wanton slut that you met 2 minutes before in the meat market bar your trolling in, its all uhhhh
fun :laughing: and with his name beig damien, he HAS to go out and raise some hell, put him back in touch with his lower life form self. I think everyone should do it once in a while. -
hell no kid, you're alright.I tend to surpress a lot of anger because I understand that it can become unreasonable.But, one of the things I really like about grvtykllr is that he holds nothing back. Maybe all us ragahollics can get together, get drunk and smash beer bottles over our heads!
-
i can hit my head on anything and it does not hurt....
I got tons of anger, but I vent it in weird ways...
Damien you are a good kid. do not change.

I like to listen to angry music... for therapy
-
I enjoy my metal music...I usually can use Pantera to do for homework, Metallica for a good mood, and Megadeth for cruising...I got bands for different activities.

Angry, You' What fucker said that? as for that upstart hes a twat ignore him. Passion is an intersting word. You probally know its greek derivative means suffering(and dont anybody have a go saying im trying to be clever, i love this sort of shit, sad i know). Using that definition passion=suffering, can a person suffer without anger. The answer in my mind is yes, only through a long journey of spiritual maturity and acceptance of circumstances that we alone cant change. To tolerate serenely without anger our suffering or passion i think takes a life time to master, and im nowhere near mastering it. This excepted (y'all with me so far) we can transcend our identification with suffering and sort of see we choose pretty much what we will suffer (or get angry over) pretty much like we choose what we will wear, or eat for dinner. (Im gonna get some hate mail for that). So (everyone say amen) we construct our suffeing and can deconstruct it through killing our ego before it causes us to kill ourselves through suicide, drugs alcohol etc. (is there any point me logging back on to a myriad hate messages telling me to fuckoff you think your so clever bastard).

Angry? noConstantly seeking approval? Yes. ie this thread, and the one about your friend. If people on here think you are angry, and you know you aren't, Im thinking you should go with the one who knows you best.

In reply to: Angry, You' What fucker said that? You said that.

In reply to: Angry? noConstantly seeking approval? Yes. ie this thread, and the one about your friend. How is that seeking approval?The thread about my friend? Your comment makes no sense in relation to that thread. How can I ask you guys to affirm parts of me that you can't even see or know. Do you think every time someone posts a question about themeselves it's because they are seeking approval? That's wacked. My questions were both more about understanding myself better and learning how or how not to deal with things. Is that wrong?Shoot, I get enough unsolicited affirmation from this site, I don't need to go trolling for more.My post here wasn't about approving or affirming me. It was meant to be a quesion about why people confuse passion with anger.
-
damien...definitely the angriest person on here.
No it is not anger it is you quick posting fingers...You are all over those two posters so fast. Just ignore it, they gave their input you choose to accept it or not...It is okay you do not need to defend yourself 24/7...those who know you and trust you, know best. So just relax.
-
I fear you misread or misunderstood my replies.The sanctuary asked a simple question and I gave him a simple answer.ME said something that was completely wrong so I corrected her..cause I like her.I can assure you I probably have some of the "slowest" fingers on here. I think through things fairly well before I post. I erase more than I send. If I say something that comes across as a bit harsh, you can be assured it was calculated and deliberate, not a knee-jerk response.That being said (...I seem to be using that phrase a lot these days for some reason), I really appreciate your willingess to be honest with me and call it like you see it, even if you might be off base a bit. Because you're right. It's a lot healthier and more benificial when we open ourselves up to positive input and then take what fits and ignore what doesn't. We'd all be a bit better off if that were the rule and not the exception.
-
So back to the original question...anger vs. passionHow do you see them? How are they the same or different?Is expressing them a good or bad thing? I actually believe it is a positive thing to express anger. I'm just learning to do it myself. Folks today act like expressing anger is a cardinal sin. It's not. And passion is a very positive thing.But I would love to hear other thoughts.

I understand, but you do not have to correct her, thats just the thing. But it is okay. I would correct her if she was offering advice to some one depressed and said to kill ones self, that is where a correction is justified. But in this case, it is quite alright and normal. Just loosen up some on that and I think you should be alright. You just seem a bit quick to correct or defend, not always necessary.
