jackofallgeeksSo, Right. I'm feeling better. I just let a lot of steam off.
All of you may know that I don't get angry easily. Infact, I like to think it's very hard to get me mad. I took a quiz once (surprise surprise) that said my temper was probably like an iron bull -- I keep in inside and it just builds up without affecting anything until it's a raging inferno. Or something like that. I just -don't- get mad.
However, I'm also German and Italian, so when I DO get mad, I have a temper. Most people have never seen this temper from me, but let's just say that punching holes through various walls and doors runs in the family. I'm lucky, I think, in that I got a mild case of the Gigioli-Portner Temper mix.
There are several things that you can do to make me angry. The first one is to disrespect a lady to whom I have a deal of affection. One of my exgirlfriends did that, as did my current room mate. I'm very protective of those I care for, and they deserve a fair bit of consideration, if you ask me. Another way is to mess with my friends, generally. Like I said, i'm protective. You can hit me, call me what you will, say anything you want, and yes if you do it long enough I'll react. however, if you make even the first such advances on someone I consider a friend, you'll have my temper running near-imediately.
This was one of the later cases. Somebody had already quite insulted me when I tried to engage her in discussion. That's fine -- she doesn't know me, and I could tell that she was narrow-minded and uninterested in true discussin -- "she's right and that's that" kind of mind set. But then NaughtJennifer (a dear friend of mine) tried to approach the same person, and got attacked as well. Firstly, my assumption was right -- she treated a girl differently from a guy, as me and NJ said the same thing, but where as I was an enemy, NJ was just 'naive' and to be pittied.
Anyways, yeah, she attacked NJ, and I just let loose on her. I marked it as anonymous, becase it truthfully wasn't 'like' me to go off like that - It was nice to be able to say everything I wanted to, though.
Needless to say, this isn't common knowlege, and in most situations I would not be proud of what I just did. But that... person has done very little to earn any respect from me, and has not shown much consideration for anyone -- and what she has shown feels more and more like pitty and veiled contempt.
Oh, and by the by, I've decided I can't stand that... -smolders!-
