Angry

Definition: An emotional state that is easily triggered by any number of stimuli, including traffic, politics, reality television, and running out of coffee in the morning.

Symptoms: The symptoms of anger can range from mild irritation to full-blown Hulk-like rage. Common symptoms include increased heart rate, clenched fists, and a burning desire to shout obscenities at the offending party.

Causes: The causes of anger are as varied as the people who experience it. Some people become angry when they are hungry or tired, while others become angry when they are forced to wait in line at the DMV. Whatever the cause, anger is known to be especially prevalent during rush hour traffic, full moons, and any time the internet goes down.

Treatment: There is no known cure for anger, although there are several methods of treatment that have proven to be moderately effective. These include deep breathing exercises, counting to 10, and hitting a punching bag. In extreme cases, some individuals may find relief through therapy or medication, although these methods are often expensive and time-consuming.

Some of the most notable include the time Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards and the time Michael Richards went on a racist tirade at a comedy club in 2006. However, perhaps the most infamous angry moment of all time occurred when the passengers of the Titanic realized there were not enough lifeboats to save everyone.
