-Road rage incidents - So someone cuts you off, big deal. In about 30 seconds you'll forget about it and never think about it again. Why waste energy over someone else's bad driving habits, or potentially cause an accident by being stupid yourself, like honking or chasing them down?

-Anything sports related - I'm as big a sports fan as anyone, and being a Raiders/A's/Bruins fan I've experienced disappointment as much as anyone else, but really, it's not worth graying your hair over.

-Something someone said over the internet - The worst offense of all...there are anonymous idiots everywhere in this world, why give them the pleasure of getting pissed off if they insulted your beliefs, views, or dog?

All in all, there are countless things in life that we have no control over, e.g. the behavior of others or the natural stupidity of other humans, and there are even more things that simply don't matter in the long run of it all.

Life is much better off when you don't sweat over the most inane things of life..

I don't care what's going on. I still get pissed about people in the express lane at the grocery store with more than 15 items.

I'm a courier and the guy I work with (he drives) rants at traffic ALL DAY LONG. I sometimes get the urge to push him into it.

I actually think of that when someone does that to me on the road.

Wow, only five posts.

On topic, you're exactly right, the same applies to people yelling at stupid TV shows, no matter how loud you yell, they just can't hear you. Somehow I've understood this little secret at least since I was seven, but some people just don't get it.

computer games would be my #1

I mean the amount of childish hissie fits people throw over pretty much EVERYTHING is pretty sad. I mean i'm 22 and I often feel like I'm too mature to be playing video games any more because I can no longer get pissed off enough to want to kill someone over them. Although I won't claim any superiority here, when I was in middle school and early high school I did my fair share of being a video game loser and yelling at the computer everything I died in CS etc.

For me I find it really stupid to get upset over things you have zero control over and have zero chance of ever having control over.

-Road rage incidents - Bad drivers are a danger to society. They are what cause massive traffic delays, and they are what cause thousands of vehicle-related deaths each year. It is worth getting mad about.

Am I allowed to get mad if someone leaves crap streaks on the toilet seat at the office?
