I heard on the radio a few years ago that somebody had done a study to see whether people actually felt better after breaking dishes (I think it was specifically breaking dishes, but it was seriously years ago and I am not sure of the details, and I may be conflating it with a report about a place that was basically a pay-to-break-dishes deal) and found that they did not. Venting generally not effective, was the conclusion, as I recall. FWTW
It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

When I'm in a better mood, I always stick my hand up the chicken butt and make it dance and sing when I'm rubbing the inside with spices.
That's an image that's going to stick with me.

I think D and M seriously questioned my sanity the first time they saw it. But the cook makes the rules!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Apparently the cook also makes the entree her bitch.

And it's apparently choreographed.

My roasted chickens have a hell of a high kick.

I want this to involve a GUESS WHAT? CHICKEN BUTT! call and response.

And do they bring all the boys to the yard?

My songs are actually pretty boring: "Thank you chicken, you will be delicious! I have my salty hand up your butt now! I"M RUBBING THE CHICKEN BUTT! RUB, RUB, CHICKEN BUTT!"
Although one time, I'd had some wine and I made the chicken sing Lionel Richie's "Hello" which turned into BWACK BWACK's to the tune of Hello. (Yes, I slow-danced with a dead chicken on my hand.)
And one time I did "Copacabana."
Her name was Lola/She was a chicken
With yellow feathers for her hair/And her breasts cut down down to there
She would merengue/As I chopped-chopped
And while she tried to stay afar/My husband tended bar
Across the kitchen floor
He'd worked from 8 to 4
We're kinda young and we have a chicken, who COULD ASK FOR MORE?
...You should probably have me committed.
