The Rules of Men When They Are Angry (Incomplete)
(Contradictions forthcoming)
1. We believe we have it all figured out and when data arrives that reminds us that we do not, we get angry.
2. During this angry period, we are jerks.
3. We are never wrong.
4. Don’t get in the way. We’ll take it out on you. Doesn’t matter who you are.
5. There is likely no conversation you can have with us which is going to make us feel better. We need to move from boiling over to simmer to gone.
6. Gone will show up when you’re not looking.
7. You need to understand the basic reason we’re pissed, but even if you get us to talk, we’re not telling you the basic reason.
