Seriously, next time some angry takes his out on you, just say something like, "Oh thank you! Have a nice day then! *big smile*" and watch for their reaction, lol. |
Bingo. Every time someone gets pissed at me I just wave at 'em and blow 'em a kiss. I mean yeah, I'm pissed that they might've been tailgating me on the freeway, but doing something destructive (by any means) towards them has the high potential of making the situation that much worse. Simple. |

you ever see/hear a black chick that's mad about something, they'll let it be known...you shoulda made a scene and been like WHOA WHOA WHAT THE COMMANDER MOVE YO OVER AND GET THE OUT THE WAY! so everyone hears ya then looks...could also helped since you followed his ass to key his up correct |
lol i've actually calmed down a lot over the past couple of years. believe it or not, i HATE "scenes" like that. i will do anything in my power to be calm about something and i don't react because if i just didn't think, and i reacted, would get ugly.
About 4 years ago (back in my cokehead days), I was driving to the store or something, but I was in my ex’s brand in new Benz SL 500. haha he was out of town or some , so I was using it. Anyway, I’m approaching a red light and I start to brake, but then it turned green, so I hit the gas again. Well, right as I’m about to drive under the traffic light, in the middle of the intersection, this SUV literally flies right in front of my car and I slammed on the brakes so hard, it screeched. She had basically ran a red light. I reacted so quickly, I just slammed on the gas and made a hard right turn to follow her down the road a ways. I was mainly just really pissed that she almost totaled my bf’s car that I shouldn’t have been driving lol. It scared the out of me, that would have majorly sucked. So anyway, she actually gets a red light up ahead and I pull up right in front of her car and get out and walk up to her SUV and start bitching her out. She had her little daughter in the car too, which surprised me, but I didn’t give a . I was like, “ARE U ING NUTS LADY! U almost totaled my ing car. U don’t just run a red light like that with ur kid in the car, blab la bla” I went OFF on this lady. She was in shock and her daughter turned white. Haha I didn’t mean to come off like a psycho and after it all happened, I was like, “damn Jamie, calm down”. But that scared me so much, I think I was just reacting to the fear by lashing out.
It was funny…I guess we’ve all done a little road rage here and there, but like I said, I’ve calmed down a lot. |

It wouldn't surprise me in the least bit, but I've never experienced it. |

Yup that's also true.
I pretty much mastered the art of smiling at people's anger when I worked as a cashier at Walmart. Never seen so many miserable s in one place in my life, lol. They were the only reason I liked my job, no joke. Especially the dumb old bastards who treated me like it was MY fault they had to pay tax...wtf?? Jokes. |

Ohhhh! I was on the phone with a client a few months ago that I had called because there was un-paid dues on his behalf. SO he starts bitching me out on why he should pay them when CLEARLY he spent the monies, no?
