@ghost-of-a-duke saidInteresting. I am almost entirely made out of wrath.
I completely lack the emotion of anger.
(Have spoken about this before in the SF and it caused a right old furore).

-Removed-We have only really had 2 'lively' discussions in the SF sir:
1. When you denied the existence of altruism.
2. When I declared I was completely void of the emotion of anger.
I think you became a little angry, but with 'calm altruism' I selflessly allowed you to claim victory,.. simultaneously winning both arguments.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI am going to say with #2 you are completely lying there. You've been angry many times on here and it has shown in your words. No human is completely void of the emotion of anger that is just plain 'Silly goad'!!!

Unless of course they have mental issues!!!

@very-rusty saidBe that as it may, I lack the emotion of anger. I can get irritated, sure, but 'anger' itself (the ability to lose control in a fit of rage) is simply not in my emotional repertoire.

This has most certainly been advantageous in the work I do, though not always beneficial to life in general. I can however, if required, 'fake anger' at opportune moments to prevent 'doormat syndrome' (a trick learned from Paul Daniels RIP).
@ghost-of-a-duke saidI am sure the irritation is really anger you don't want to admit. No one said you weren't able to control it, but everyone DOES become angry at one time or other unless you have some medical issues which stop you from feeling any emotion. I have known a few of those in the real world as I am sure you have!

@very-rusty said1. I don't have a medical condition that prevents me from getting angry.

3. I experience all other emotions known to mankind.
4. You're a twerp.
(No anger was required in writing the above).
