Anger management is actually like they show it in the movies? I really had no idea and figured they just made up that a bunch of people sitting in a circle would be listing the things that made them mad as therapy.
I’ve been to a couple different types. The most common is the circle. There was also a “seminar” I attended where it was in an auditorium. That was fun. The speaker got run off by the third row within 30 minutes.

Do you also have to share a bed with an old ugly white guy with freaky eyebrows?
What do they call a woman without an asshole? Divorced.
Mmmm… no. Not last time I checked.
Maybe I should look under the bed?

I’ve never been to anger management, but then I usually just keep things inside and stew about them until the other party forgets and then I pounce.
Usually, it takes a lot to piss me off enough for revenge. Other than that, I don’t hold onto anger much. I totally know what you mean about the Hazelnut instead of French Vanilla tho! I coulda killed the clerk the other day for something similar!
Hang in there. I promise I won’t ask you any MySpace questions. I’d have to set one up first. Just don’t make fun of my old man blue polyester smell anymore, mmk?
See… that’s what I USED to do. Everything used to be bottled up… and then… one day I popped… and the floodgates have been open ever since.
I 
my coffee.
You can ask me any MySpace questions you may have… or any Blogger questions too (lord knows I spent alot of time in that hell)… but I so want a chocolate bean bag in the corner… right next to the puppies.

I have the opposite problem. I had to learn to express my anger instead of saying, “Fine. Everything is fine.” lol Sweating my ass off on the treadmill is a great stress reliever and I’m about the least athletic person ever. You’ll find something that works for you.
I had the thing that worked for me… it was called “smash the ball"… but no more.

I have had some issues with anger in the past few days. PMS is a huuuuge part of it, but I’m still getting pissed off way more than I should.

See… when it’s my time of the month… I don’t get angry. I get mushy, and melancholy, and all sorts of stuff. That’s how I know I’m not ragging right now… although I have been craving some Rocky Road late at night…

I get mushy and melancholy when I’m raggin’ too. Snickers for breakfast with my French Roast on ice with French Vanilla.
I used to have anger issues. My husband used to hit me. I used to have a 1998 Bronco that I would take out into the middle of no where and romp with Metallica in the tape deck until I couldn’t romp no more. I’d scream the lyrics at the top of my lungs as my truck lurched this way and that.
In the end my arms hurt, my voice hurt, but my head was clear and emotionally I’d be drained. No more anger.
Broncos, Metallica (preferably with Cliff but Jason would do), and middle of nowhere aside…

p.s.
On that chocolate bean bag;
do you prefer round, or square?
Oooh… round… totally.
I know someone who got hurt on cooked spaghetti… so a square one could severe a limb…

There’s a round chocolate bean bag in the corner, right next to the puppies at my place if ya care to sit for a spell.
You rawk!!!

Sometimes, I try.
Others, it just comes naturally. You bring out the natural in me. 
Mr. Yoda needs to go to passive aggression management.
Life is not a movie. Good guys lose, everybody lies, and love… does not conquer all.
My mom used to stand across the kitchen from our back door, where our dish cupboard was, open it up and start tossing plates at the door till she felt better. We got our dishes from the thrift store. Ha.
Breaking glass has a nice ring and tinkle to it when you hurl it at a wall.
Not that I’m advocating violence or anything. You could try Lamaze?
Believe it or not I know Lamaze. It never worked for me… and it definitely didn’t work for her.

What did you pass around and why wasn’t I included? 
I don’t have anger issues. I have bitchy/annoyed/impatience/stop being fucking stupid issues. But I hardly ever get angry, mostly I get annoyed and pissy. But I’m a girl and I talk those things out.
I think if I went to anger management, that would make me angry.
I hope it works for you though. Being angry sucks.

I don’t have an attitude problem, you have a perception problem
What did I pass around??? Why wouldn’t I include you??? I totally would have sent you coupons for cheese crumbley thingies… but since you were the one who sent me those first… I didn’t think you wanted anymore.
But the good news is I’ll be making a trip to the post office this weekend… because the shirts came in yesterday… and they totally did NOT fuck yours up… and its all big and poofy so you can sleep in it as if it was a tent and you can pretend you’re “roughing it” all dawggy style and stuff!

I’ve had my own anger management issues in the past… talking about it helps… trying to find the positive in our lives (as hokey as it sounds) works better. Focusing on what makes you happy, and when shit pisses you off, what would make it better, works a hell of a lot better than getting mad. I’m proof positive of it, so if it sounds like a whole lot of horse hookey - it’s not
