How do YOU blow off some steam?

[Imbisill]

Every now and then you have a bad game at HoN or something else happens to make you mad. This anger get's locked up inside until we blow it out.

So, I'm asking how YOU blow off some steam when something bad happens.

Personally I shout really loud and beat something up(pillow, matress, cupcake, anything that's near) Or I play a 1200-1300 game as deadwood and yell "TAKE THAT MOTHERF***ER!" when i deadwood pawnch someone.

[Sagat]

i make harm to my right arm~

[whistle]

I take a walk to the coffee shop across town

[Shintetsu]

Bad. Make harm to another person's arm! That's if you're a drunk mod. lol.

OT: Sudden burst of cuss as you do a hat-trick. Or, if you can't actually do that, get in an EM and noobstomp haha.

Do something retarded but fun. Like Elder Parasite and Bruta on a Devourer. Or a harkon's on FA. Something along those lines :)

[Desuuuu]

I fap.

[Pyrate]

hold my nose and blow really hard until im red in the face, it comes out of my ears

[whistle]

Side note:

[Zehbear]

i'm very interested in this, because i'm not used to bad things happening to me. Though, lately i've been having a lot of problems - tell me what to do OT, please!:D

[TreeHorse]

I will finish playing and read a book for a while if I get too frustrated. Or go pedal around my urban hardtail and throw some barspins, always makes me feel better.

[Cornballer]

I kill people.

[LolMaliken]

i shrug off bad games. once its over its over. or i frag people in BFBC2 for a few hours

Why? Just intersted.

[whistle]

It completely cuts off oxygen to the brain, if it doesn't kill you it atleast knocks you out for a bit.

[Maliwan]

i go on steam

[Jayschwa]

So, I'm asking how YOU blow off some steam when something bad happens.
I exercise or fap. If I can't do either of those at the moment, I try to work myself up so much that the whole things starts to seem absurd and comedic. Once something seems laughable, it's hard to stay mad.

Shouting and punching things probably isn't a good way to let off steam, even if it's only at inanimate objects and no one else is around. The more you "rehearse" a behavior, the more likely you are to behave that way in the future (and possibly at a bad time).

The best thing you can work on is not getting pissed off in the first place, rather than getting pissed off and then trying to find an outlet for it.

[Ularg]

I play instruments, I used to nearly cut myself with guitar strings how fast I would just jam on that thing, even if it sounded terrible I just did it to get the movement out of me.

[Pyrate]

I find you just looking in the general direction of the steam and exhaling is an effective method

[Shintetsu]

OP should have added "...from a HoN game", it's where the thread is heading afaik.

Another way, drop the game for now and do something else.

[SideKick1]

i go shoot dem zombies in l4d2

[Narfle]

Its not very effective, narfle is now logged in.

[Imbisill]

Tedious meme incoming.

A wild :blac: appears.
:blac: Uses: TOO BAD
narfle and Jill are defeated.



OT: Yeah I didn't intend this thread to become a HoN rage thread, shouldnt have mentioned HoN in the first place. Anyways, I'll make it go back to my original intention.

This is what I do when I get angry during the summer.

[NoxMortem]

I love noodles (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs5HQqElIx4)

(This is on topic! - This is what i do when i get angry!)

[Juular]

I get away from the computer/other thing that is frustrating me and lie down and listen to my iPod.

[Narfle]

I hate when people asks questions simply because they want the exact same question asked to themselves.

"so anything new? HIRHIRHIRHIRHIRHIRHIR"

"no, not really anything"

*long akward silence*

"soo.. anything new with you?"

"OMG YES IM GOING INTO SPACE ON A DACHSHUND WHILE GETTING MARRIED AND SURVIVING CANCER OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!"

[Simbamatic]

More HoN obviously.

You get stomped, you want to play again to win. Reaffirm that e-peen.

Never go out on a losing note. Makes coming back to it later that much crappier.

[kemikal]

Normally hit the gym ;P

Let off the steam and work on the fitness/health too!

Win/Win

[Poni]

Relax, listen to music and read a variety of forums

[Fazzmania]

fap fap fap

[coolmans]

i open steam, place a bomb near my laptop and hurrah!

I've succesfully blown steam

[Maliwan]

i go shoot dem zombies in l4d2

Hey, do you want to play someday? i have a team of 4 that is mediocre. We are looking for people to scrim. are you interested?

[Crap]

I say "****" and move along.

[SmokeShow]

I bottle it all up for that one special day that is coming soon...

[Maliwan]

but you can only hold it for 2 mins...

[kosta1]

Headbanging, jumping around whilst listening to music
Hitting my bro
Hitting my keyboard and throwing my headset around

[Maliwan]

if you like doing those things, you should throw your shoes around as well. thats how the greeks did it to let off steam.

[Blitzl0l]

I drink alot.

[timidbeast]

I snap sometimes playing HoN. Especially lately since I've been playing with a buddy who is new to HoN but good @ dota. Ive gone from like 1745 to 1660 in a week. Typically after a bad loss I play a game like mw2 and nuke people. Other times I sit down with the wife and watch one of the following:
chuck, psych, simpsons, american dad, family guy, or vampire diaries (my choice... i know).
Basically I try to find a stress free activity. I know I shouldnt get mad at a video game, but nerd rage often gets the better of me!

Fratey, don't lie. You clearly delete / move top tier posts from OT.

just tried that.

it was so weird, unexplainable

hot air coming out of my ears and tears out of my eyes lol wtf

[DemonSouL]

i bottle it up and make other people mad. makes me feel better when people are crying about how bad their teammates are... or in mw2 when they call me a hacker because i have a heartbeat sensor.

beating up inanimate objects is bad for relieving stress or anger. it's been studied and acts of violence only increase your temper and aggressiveness. The thing that calms you down from beating up a pillow is the exercise and energy exerted from doing so. Better way is to just do some kind of exercise.

Some kind of exercise could include beating up a pillow.

[GoldDrive]

I hold a kitten up by its front legs and look into its cute little face. Those big dish plate eyes make me forget what I was mad about... Then I tear that thing in half like a phonebook. It's not animal cruelty if no one else sees it.
