(1.) The easiest negative emotion to channel into productivity.
While depression is like a static pond that sinks into the earth and grows mold, anger is like boating down rapids. The ride can be a bit bumpy, (perilous even, if it turns to rage) but you’ve got enough power in that water current…you’ll sure as shit get somewhere.
The trick is being able to paddle (channel your anger), otherwise that energy will take you somewhere quick you don’t want to go, (like a rapid that pushes you overboard and makes you hit your head on a rock).
(2.) The expectation that something in this world should be better than it currently is, and someone else is responsible for why it’s not.
(3.) When hope makes a peace treaty with other negative emotions (such as grief, fear, despair, shame), by assigning them two targets…something or someone to blame, and something to do about it. (The something to do about it doesn’t have to be direct (such as plotting revenge). It can also involve self-actualization or the betterment of oneself /others).

I'd rather deal with anger than depression or sadness any day of the week. Contrary to the suffering artist myth, most manifestations of suffering do not yield productivity.

Get the Angermug. Angers is not a very popular last name, but if your an Angers, your very lucky. If your an Angers, you're very athletic, kind, compassionate and funny. You can be very dumb, but you're always there for your friends when they need you.

Get the Angermug. Anger is an emotion that can lead to anger issues. Anger can occur when the brain vissions traumatic event happens and appears. You can start to feel like you could have done something to prevent this.

Get the a sauna of anger and envymug. A life-threatening blow-out of the brain circulation caused by high blood pressure and right-wing affiliation.
With his face all red and his lips quivering, Alex Jones had a third degree rupture of his angerism when he found out he couldn't buy off the judge.
