Rant number 195
It may come to a bit of a surprise to some of you, but I'm actually quite an angry guy. I'm passionate and I do show my emotions right out there where they can be seen.
Not many people are 196 rants into a 366 day long rant based quest after all...
I can't say that this has made me a less angry person, but the experience can be quite cleansing after a hard day.
Anger is one of our unavoidable core emotions, and anyone who doesn't get angry is just bottling it away somewhere unhealthy.
If it's the difference between me bellowing every now and then and me going postal, I'll carry on bellowing.
Thus, being passive aggressive is just plain unhealthy.
Every day I speak to people like that in various different situations.
People who never shout, but will insult you with a smile on your face - because they think you won't understand. People who will speed up as you pass them on the motorway - because you have dared to pass them. People who must be at the front of the queue for the bus, even if it means standing on everyone else to get there and when there are plenty of seats.
Parking in my parking space - thats right bitch who does't even live in my building - YOU! (See http://trums365rants.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/rant-9-9112-subject-people-who-park-in.html for more details.)
If these people just shouted from time to time and expressed their angry properly, they wouldn't feel the need to niggle and irritate the rest of us. Just because you can't just let it out from time to time in order to get rid of their pent up aggressive tendencies.
If you are feeling passive aggressive, get angry for the love of god. Then you can stop being a dick and you will feel much better!
Rant over.
