But Big!Boss does the shit where he says one thing one month and the next month loses his shit at us for doing it because we should KNOW that we should NEVER do it. That crap is classic alcoholic parent bullshit. When you can't count on your authority figure to be consistent, and you get punished for it, well, it still pushes my buttons.
OK, my mother if definitely not an alcoholic- she only ever has had the occasional drink, and the same with my grandpa, but this is totally them. I am like Steph and I cry when frustrated. It, in itself is very frustrating. What weird people out is that I don't sob, tears just start pouring down my face, and I can totally continue to have the discussion. I hate it because then people get all sympathetic, because they think I am sad or hurt, but really I am just mad!
Jesus Christ. NSFW.
Good god, why do I click?
I wonder the same thing. Everyfriggingtime. Oh, yes, I clicked. And now I have regret.

Me too. Now I generally just say calmly, "Okay, I'm probably going to cry now, just so you know. I cry when I'm angry/frustrated/etc." I tend to cry less and at least it's out there instead of this awkward thing people pretend not to see.
One of my friends linked this autocorrect on fb, and I've been keeping the tab open b/c it just cracks. me. up. [link]
I read that autocorrect this morning, and I too reacted by thinking, "What the actual fuck."
When i get upset, I literally lose the power of speech. The act of opening my mouth to explain why I am upset leads to hyperventilation, embarrassing sobs, and choking. It's not terribly productive. Especially when I'm pmsing and what I'm upset over is really really stupid.
There really has to be a way around the "cry when angry/frustrated" thing. Cause it completely undermines the "I am legitimately angry with you, I'm not being hysterical."
What do you say when he (NSFW) walks past you on the beach?
