Serenity Now!

So I got into a fight with my g/f the other night and decided it would be a good idea to punch the bedroom door, which solves absolutely nothing except to make me immediately lose whatever argument started the fight. I have a history of getting really pissed and punching walls/doors/cabinets but I've never really got in fights when I'm really pissed. This doesn't happen that often and it's probably the first time in a couple of years, but I'm sure there's a better way to vent.

So I'm just wondering what other people do when they get pissed and need to vent some immediate frustration.

Might I suggest...

My wife put a hole in one of the cheap doors at our apartment before we bought the house. I wound up covering it with a Ninja Gaiden wall scroll.

I'm a screamer/breaker myself.

Same, It's one of the things I hate most about myself, and probably my biggest flaw. The bad thing is though it happens when I make stupid mistakes or when my computer or something isn't working. I rarely ever get pissed at people.

:o Yoshi's Johnny "Yahya" McClain?

I let it build up inside until I snap and scream, freak out, kick things, and just act generally irrational. This usually comes out when I fuck up while cooking.

I just go play some videogames or something.

I take a smoke.

edit: Just remembered that I got angry today and sent/rolled a 85 year old to her room lol.

I can see that when I'm kind of pissed, but sometimes when your adrenaline is rushing and you're seriously frustrated it's not easy to walk away and turn on the 360. I think I need something that physically expels the frustration, I should've just gone outside and de-iced the driveway or something.

The worst part is me punching the door immediately negates my side of the argument and I instantly lose. The whole thing started because she's going to a party Saturday night and she wants me to come pick her and her friend up because she doesn't want to have to worry about drinking...I was going to hang out and drink some too, so I said I didn't want to hang around and wait to come pick her up...wrong answer.

I eventually told her I'd come pick her up because I know she'd appreciate it, but I still don't really want to do it...wrong answer again!

No matter how many arguments I get in with girlfriends I will never learn that they are always right and I need to just accept that and secretly know that all woman are in fact a little bit crazy.
