SNIP, masturbating, or working out might make you feel better short term, but if the original cause of your anger is still in your mind, it's only delaying you getting angry again. If you are constantly getting angry over what is seemingly little problems, take a step back and figure out why you are really getting angry over such little stuff.

My answer to things that would normally make people angry.....try to find something positive in it and focus on that, if nothing positive is there, just forget about. Simple answer is that typical old cliche "don't sweat the small stuff, and it's all small stuff." It's a terribly ambiguous answer, but it really is that simple, instead of having to do something to aim your anger elsewhere, just don't get angry in the first place.

True story, when im engaged in reading, a book that i ive been following its great, its cliche but it cools you off
