Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
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!
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.

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."

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

I tend towards, "Screw what society says, this is a legitimate response and just because water is leaking from my tear ducts does not mean I am not rational right now." Because the only way I've found *not* to cry is to bite my tongue, dig in my fingernails, and not talk. And if I don't talk? Well, how's that saying go? "Speak your mind, even if your voice shakes."
