If I were a bomb, my fuse would probably be about three millimeters long and I'd be filled to the brim with the most volatile explosives known to man. I'm kidding, but yes, I do have a ferocious temper and lots of things set me off.

I'm not exactly proud of that fact, though (actually, I feel quite the contrary about it)- and in no way am I trying to brag about it here. In fact, just because I recognize it doesn't mean I'm glorifying it at all. My bad temper has gotten me in a lot of hot water before (it's a wonder I don't have a criminal record considering what I've pulled in the past), and I'm trying to learn how to control said temper through counseling. This is just a stamp for those who recognize that they have a nasty temper.



Yes, the title is a reference to a song by Rage Against the Machine.

I've noticed that the older I get, the shorter my temper becomes.

Got one. Mostly towards people who make things so unnecessarily complicated and treat everything like it's rocket science.

Yep, pretty much me in a nutshell...

Love the RatM reference by the way.

Sometimes, I worry my temper will be the death of me someday.

I personally think I can hold my temper for a decent amount, but when I am poked off, then its going to be pretty nasty.

I've been working on trying not to let things get to me (or at the very least, be apathetic about things), but when someone deliberately goes out of the way to step on my toes (especially when I'm in one of those ugly/inexplicable mood swings, ergh), I well...do things that I usually regret a lot afterwards...



But yeah, I'm working on it. I don't think it's an overnight process, but I'm less prone to taking things out physically than before.

I am pretty prone to mood swings toothough it is more like bipolar to me ._. not saying I self diagnosed, but it fells that way :/ and when I am ticked at a bad timing, it is really bad, and I regret it when I calm my tits. Really. I understand how that feels.

I am more verbal than physical in the past. I even picked several brawls with my so called enemies back in lower school.
