I will gesture or say something to "give permission" for the argument to go to that next level of intensity
What sort of signals do you give?
I should be so polite as to wait for these...
Gunn: Well, how horrible is this thing? Lorne: I haven't read the Book of Revelations lately, but if I was searching for adjectives, I'd probably start there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But my eyes well up when I'm very pissed off and trying to keep cool.
This is me. In fact, if I am angry and my eyes AREN'T welling up, run away very quickly, as I am about 5 seconds away from grabbing whatever is nearest and throwing it at someone or something.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I forgot to get to the DMV to renew our registration/plates since they expire TODAY. I did go online to renew the registration but since they have to mail the sticker and registration, I fear I may be screwed if I get stopped for any reason. I wonder if the printed confirmation that I renewed them online would suffice for a traffic stop?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I just refuse to be apologetic about being, you know, human. I can't control my tear production as a stress response anymore than I can control blinking to keep my eyes from drying out.

I think tears are my body's way of dealing with NOT strangling the nearest person that deserves it.

Yes, it should be.

That's a little piece of mind. Not that I'm planning on getting stopped but we're travelling this weekend so I don't want to get in trouble with some state cop on the freeway because I don't have my new registration. The sticker on the plates covers all of October, so that won't be an issue.

Crying during a krav test is the best. No one will talk to me about it, the tears are lost in sweat, and I'm gasping and screeching anyway. You can throw everything into it.
Now, crying when other people are doing stuf -- I just up and admitted to it to one of the more senior instructors, and he looked at me and said "You're such a girl." Yeah -- terribly feminine to get choked up by stress drills on the heavy bag. Still, he'd rag on me for the weather if he could. I don't take it personal.

I was ranting about asshat Big!Boss today and a colleague suggested I go break down in his office. As if that would be an appropriate way to get him to take me seriously. Unfortunately I couldn't break down in his office if I wanted to; I would be more likely to break things. Like his arm.
