I can assure you that I'm not rational or very calm when I'm pissed off.

It's very difficult to piss me off, I have an extremely high tolerance of behavior, but if someone does, I'll generally just confront them and try to get them to change it. If that doesn't work, I'll just stay away from them. Not worth my time and effort to do more than that.

Geez, I wish I had a high tolerance for behavior. In fact, I'm not tolerant at all.

I'll usually confront them on what I think they've done and give them the chance to respond or correct the issue, if I consider the relationship worth the effort.

If I don't consider the relationship worth the effort or if it is something that's gone on so long I am giving up hope of resolving the issues, I'll withdraw from them. Anger is a real energy waster for me, makes me feel sick. I try not to let myself get angry too much anymore, it's not worth the energy drain for me.

I rarely get really mad. I tend to get mildly irked more often and when that happens I am more likely to become impish about it and that's just good fun.

I guess that is some of the advantages of having a split personality accompanieng a twisting brain.

You never get really mad at anyone, because you didn't know their names in the first place xD

If I'm furious, I'll turn the bullwhip loose. If I'm beyond furious, I just stand there shaking. Anger makes me feel physically ill.

Yea that is exactly the way some people I talk to behave. Any suggestions how I can help them become free of their anger ?
