God, that "Fist of Jesus" was hilarious.

Also, concerning the Greenlandic song:

This further supports my "well-researched" conclusion that with an acoustic guitar and the right vocal range, you can sing in literally any language and sound like an American speaking English (save for the bizarre "ll" fricative and so forth).

I can provide previous evidence from Spanish, Japanese, and Russian.

My old Spanish teacher had a similar theory, except he tested it in Afrikaans.

A, sharing a photo on Facebook: Hurricane season is almost upon us, and the storms keep trucking on!

B: The picture says it's not a real storm, just a trivia question
A: Oh ok


I cannot comprehend the sheer willful ignorance it takes to ignore a caption like that, but the "Oh ok" is somehow even more disenheartening.

My brother, yelling as loudly, threateningly, and authoritatively as he could muster: "I DON'T HAVE AN ANGER ISSUE!"

Honestly, I think he needs some tranquilizer. Then a psychiatrist. And some more tranquilizers.

Being angry doesn't mean that he has an anger issue.
That would be if he's angry when he shouldn't be.

He can be extremely unstable and nearly explode over the smallest things. Being angry some of the time is understandable and perfectly normal, but honestly i can't think of anyone with a shorter fuse than him.

Give him a punching bag to work out on whenever he gets in that mood.
That way he could concentrate his anger on something specific without potentially harming anyone?

Catharsis is a lie. Humans are creatures of habit. If you always punch things when you get angry, you're going to associate punching things with feeling better. And since anger lowers you inhibitions about violence and clouds your thinking process, that is definitely Not Good.

I find that anger clears the clouds and gives me increased clarity.

I think you're talking about Anger, while what Hans is referring to is rage. 2 different things.

Everyone is different, in some cases. For the most part though, it's bad to punch things when you're angry because then you punch whatever is nearby when you're angry. Like metal things. Walls. People. Your children. Don't do that.

Analytically speaking, yes, but that only applies to the short term. You're still more likely to do stuff you'll regret. If you're talking about what I think you are, it's most likely that you are experiencing mental clarity in abstract though only, with the critical thinking parts still inhibited. But, since I don't know you, I shouldn't really judge. Sorry if this sounded too condescending.

I find that anger gives me clarity of thought and purpose. Of course that doesn't necessarily mean that those are constructive or morally acceptable thoughts and purposes, particularly considering how much it takes to make me genuinely angry these days. Just a thought.
