    I have a mate who was trying for years to have a baby with the lady that he loves. Thankfully it worked out in the end. The child was born three days before the Ryan report came out.

    He used the word "incandescent" to try to describe the rage that he was feeling.

    The conversation terminated with him saying, "I'd like to think Choco that there will always be enough room in my house for the word "livid". "

    So AHers. Have you ever been that angry?

    I was about 7 angry once. Don't think I've gone above that.

    I've been so angry, that it makes Bruce Banner look like a softie.

    So three days after he and his missus had a kid, which should be the happiest period of time he is enraged about random news.

    This "mate" sounds like a eijit.

    Watching fat cnuts in the dail trying to justify raping the working class man whilst paying bondholders and greedy investors. And probably deciding it over a brandy in the bar..

    I might be reading the wrong kinds of books, but "incandescent" seems too delicate and beautiful, a shining light kind of word... where for me, the kind of rage I think he was trying to describe would be more likely a "ferocious fury", a "rabid rage" a "homicidal haze".

    Yep... been there, done that. :o

    Probably the angriest I've been is when I found out that I was being dumped by my gf for her university lecturer. I was 19, she was 20 and he was another 30 on top of that. Cue a week of heavy drinking and moments of anger that were probably near a 10.
    But that was almost 8 years ago and I think they ended up having a kid in the end and from what I heard, they were still together until recenly.

    yay, you win, she dies alone save for the brat she got instead of a degree!

    Some guy punched me in the face outside a club last night when I was going to zaytoon for no reason. Pretty much completely without provocation. He busted my lip and I spent the next hour spitting up blood as I walked to the police station.

    He ruined my night, ruined my face. But I was just passed off I didn't get my kebab, it's my favourite part of the night.

    The day i was born i was angry at the world.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1 in2minutes


    Really, really angry at various incompetent, careless, lying tradespeople I have encountered and which I have ended up paying for their mistakes. Very hard to find any of them who want to do anything above board or accept a cheque then when they screw up either go to ground or lie and won't accept responsibility. Have had my fill of them at this stage.

    Heh?

    He punched you for no reason, or you were going to Zaytoon for no reason?!?

    :confused:

    Was once so angry I played zombie mode on call of duty and got to level 41

    So when you say " pretty much completely without provocation " did you punch his girlfriend in the tits or poo on his chips. What level of pretty much are we talking here?

    So the deliberate, carefully calculated, malevolent abuse of children is now "random news". Well, thanks be to God that my "eijit" of a mate is a parent and you aren't.

    Oh and for what it's worth, you should use an rather than a when prefixing "eijit",not that it is spelled that way anyway.

    Apologies in advance to anyone who actually does know the rudimentary rules of syntax or the written word.

    I was once so angry that I ended up screaming blue bloody murder to the point that I terrified my dog so much she pissed on my sheets....

    I crushed a grape.

    I get angry all the time but only experienced true rage a few times. It's a physiological phenomenon. Your hearing goes, you get something like tunnel vision and the adrenaline is pumping. Had to be dragged off my cousin after he said some unbelievably disrespectful stuff to me about my mother.

    ''Dragged off'' what exactly were you doing to him?!!!

    Going back twenty years I did a few doors in, then my knuckles. Missed the door and the wall didn't flinch. ( Cider fuelled rage)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,518 ✭✭✭stefan idiot jones


    Oh, and I beat up my brother in law on holiday in Tenerife. Sober, pushed to the limit and even his OH said he deserved it.

    He flew home early, single and bruised.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 544 ✭✭✭AerynSun


    Missed the door and the wall didn't flinch.

    Ain't nobody got no time for that! I gave that door a good and proper kick, nice and hard so my boot went right through, huge hole in that sucker, took me forever to mend by hand the next day...

    And nope, no cider in my case: just an infuriating cousin holding me down while I was mid-asthma-attack... by the time he got away from me, he locked the door to keep me off him while he beat a retreat away on down the road... and I...well I was left to give the door what was coming to the cousin-in-absentia...

    :o

    When Big Bucks lost earlier, I went outside a pushed a little girl off her bike.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,083 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    Got nutted for no reason in a nightclub years ago, he broke my nose and ran off, a few minutes a bouncer comes along and sees me pumping blood and throws me out while nearly breaking my arm in the process.

    So I was fairly angry after that.

    These days with the help of CCTV I could probably have the 2 of them up on assault charges.

    Don't often get in a rage, more like a general simmering narkiness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,780 ✭✭✭Pinch Flat




    (Volume & some language warning!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 143 ✭✭ColdTurkey


    Got an unprovoked headbutt from a lad once while i was full of beer, was busy lashing the head off him when my now wife tried to break it up and she got an accidental crack in the jaw from me. It wasn't pretty, but it felt great apart from punching my wife in the face obviously.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28 BanAllFirearms


    I've never been so angry when I read the thread in AH about the new double barrel AR-15 why would people need a double barrel version of an already lethal weapon
    The mind boggles!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 748 ✭✭✭Axel Lamp


    My friend and I saw another mate of ours get an unprovoked headbutt and boot in the head (while on ground) from a scummer outside the local nightclub.

    When the anger had subsided my right shoe was covered in blood and the scumbag was out cold.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,537 ✭✭✭Arthur Beesley


    I **** myself with anger once. Does that count?

    This "mate" sounds like a eijit.

    He is probably feeling so protective of his new baby that
    the thought of someone abusing an innocent child enraged
    him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,093 ✭✭✭fineso.mom


    Once I was driving and car overtook me on a solid white line,,on a bend, then had to cut right in front of me to avoid an oncoming car. I got so cross I said 'oh for goodness sake' under my breath. I went to anger management classes for a while...I'm much better now.

    'Incandescent with rage' signifies great anger to me.
