(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 anger bear mug.Anger Sniper is a slang term used among the Team Fortress 2 community to describe a player who plays Sniper and has cosmetics to make one look edgy. Most Anger snipers will act as a tryhard to intentionally ruin the fun for other players in the game. An Anger Sniper's targets are usually other, commonly innocent, players or friendly players, typically those playing as a hoovy, who are simply acting silly or passive for comedic and non-violent purposes. Anger snipers tend to spam the lenny face as a chat bind after every kill along with doing the default sniper rifle taunt. As the name implies, Anger Snipers tend to wear the Anger, a Sniper cosmetic that appears as a hood covering the head, except for the eyes. A Anger Sniper's usual weapon is the AWPer Hand, a reskin for the stock sniper rifle that was awarded in Genuine quality to those who purchased CS:GO before it became free on the Steam store. (You can still buy this weapon in the community market or other trading/purchasing websites like backpack.tf)
