so yes even in high school i was saying "flying pickles in a bats eye what were you thinking you wretched excuses for an imbecile (worked a real one in there)!?" when i got really up set with my friends. beauty of this statement is that by the time i'm done shouting it were all laughing over what ever it was that set me off.
Well at least there's a good side to this - you basically forgot all about why you were mad which also shows it wasn't important anyway. You're not fighting fire with fire in a way, which is a good thing. You know what I mean?
