Broken in Frustration |
|
Hi All
I'll b honest, I have anger Issues, why I smoke so much, but when the weed has all gone I become an Angry Cabbage (I turn from Green to Red). So my question is, what is the first thing you go to break in frustration, if at all? Currently my list this year is: -
2 Computer Keyboards (Currently on my 3rd)
(I'm quite a Whizz at Windows On-screen keyboard now)
1 Mouse
(Damn wireless mouse batteries, ,long live Optical Wired Connection)
1 Single Bed
(I had to Drill back together once I had finished, or sleep at a 45% angle)
1 Wardrobe
(It currently has only 1 door, the other had an 'accident')
The first thing to go is usually they keyboard, I put my fist through it and then relax in a hail of falling keyboard butons, Just wondering if theres any other 'angry' people like me out there, or am I the only nutcase here, probably the latter.

So far i've been fairly lucky, missed the keyboard and nearly broke some thing in my hand, ached for ages.
1 Optical wired mouse, kept slamming it down when the computer decided against me on a kill ( some one at the server is discounting some of my kills )

Cadbury's chocolate fingers always make me feel better.
Otherwise I talk (somebody) to death.
I'm not really all that angry. Except sometimes, when a real issue deserves anger, a just anger. Like when I open a box of stale Cadbury's chocolate fingers.

Solution: Buy a drum set
There's nothing like hitting stuff and making a ton of noise to make you feel better.
And to answer your question: Cymbals are the first thing I break, too bad they're like $150 a piece.

I used to get angry on games on and offline a few years ago but no more since I broke those little legs on the back of a keyboard and the pull out panel thing on my desk that I keep it on.
Actually HL2DM doesn't enrage me that much- maybe just shout a bit to myself, shrug it off and go crowbar someone...

When I get angry, frustrated, or bummed I usually bust out the old euphonium or listen to some euph music. Usually cheers me up a bit, calms me down, or lets me blow off some steam. Fantasy by Hiroshi Hoshina usually does the trick for both listening and playing. Attached is a 2.5 minute excerpt (original version is about 9 min.) at a crappy bit rate. Haven't broken anything in anger in quite some time .

If you have problems killing keyboards you should get your hands on the greatest keyboards ever produced, the early IBM model M's. If you find one of the original ones (1984 and the first few years) you'll need an AT to serial connector, but they went over to PS/2 in 1987. The things are nearly indestructible, and if you like tactile feedback they make modern keyboards feel like foam rubber.
My main keyboard is one of the original 1984 models, and I absolutely love the thing. And if anyone ever breaks in, it will probably be about the best club in the house.

It's on "The World of the Euphonium, vol. 1" by Steven Mead. For more on the Mead man: http://www.euphonium.net/index.html

i usually just yell at the screen like it was the reason i got killed, then i throw the box of tissues here at my desk at the wall. the sound of a tissue box hitting the wall is quite calming

I need that keyboard lol, or something that is soft like a sponge so it just goes back into shape once i finish my little fit, its not usally HL2 that makes me angry , just general stuff like Windows falling over, HL2 crashing when ur 1 away from 'holy shit', or my internet just falling over. Maybe I should get a stress ball.

This topic may be a bit out of date but, whenever I'm really angry with some smg goon who just turned me into swiss cheese, I like to:
1.)Shout at the screen until my mum goes ape on me
2.)Scream into a pillow
3.)Pick up my lucky sock that I keep under my desk and attempt to eat it
OR if all else fails I just sit back and allow my body to spasm uncontrollably until my fit of rage has abated
Happy posting

I think it's a bit strange if you have problems with your nerves while gaming. I never freak out. ever. It's just a game, really so why shout or be mean.

Maybe its because all the clans make a big fuss about how need a high kpd to get in and people just freak whenever they are dying loads coz they just wanna get into this clan (i say this clan as a generalization, I dont actually neccessarily mean TSGK.)

Just come in crate and I make sure there is enough weed
I also have anger issues. But they only seem to manifest in traffic . I hate people that drive bad . Hitting stuf that I bought and worked for isnt logic to me . Try to deal with that anger in a good way.
I did it by going to gym and do weightlifting and stuff. It made me much calmer and stronger .

I used to get really mad, like flipping my keyboard and storming out of the room (different game then this though). Now I try to contain it to shouting and occasionally slamming my hand next to my mouse. It has gotten better though just takes some self control.
