ME
I shouted at one of my colleagues this morning. He brought up something we disagreed about and settled yesterday, just to get at me, so I growled at him. Who was the last person you shouted at and why?

Are you sure your colleague isn't a woman?
Sounds like something women do.

He's old and grumpy. My other colleagues looked at me like I'd shit on his dead mother.

Did you just growl, or actually shout?

I shouted, very unlike me
but he pushed my buttons. Told him he was pissing me off, I've already apologised, cleared it up and to drop it.

Hopefully he won't bring it up again, that's a grade A dick move.

Ha ha - whereas that was really me!
Sorry you got the blame. I got caught short as I was passing the chapel of rest. How was I to know they were Padraigs and thus prone to the old 'open casket'? I just popped the lid off the coffin, curled out a 'caber' and went on my merry way.

I can't remember the last time I shouted at a person
unless it was someone driving like a tit on the motorway. I'm more inclined to shout at inanimate things such as my phone when it drops calls because the signal in my flat is so poor.

I have to be pushed rather far before I'll shout at someone.

I yelled at some vile little bitch who holding up the night bus by racially abusing the bus driver. I don't often raise my voice, but I was really in no mood to have to walk the last five minutes back to my flat.

She had it in for this poor chap
because he was an African immigrant. This, despite the fact that, being of mixed race herself, there was a high probability that one of her parents - or perhaps one set of grandparents - would have been African immigrants themselves...

in a good way
wednesday night, we were very happy and loud and drunk and shouty. i expect much more of the same tonight.

in a bad way, definitely at the traffic. i hate it, i hate sitting still, i utterly despise it. however, i TRY not to lose it enough to howl "fucking fucking twats fucking fuck off out of my fucking way you are fucking well ruining my fucking evening because i can't fucking well get there" very often because people in surrounding cars can see you. and it's not a good look.

it's not always inside my head sadly
then i have to pretend to be yelling at the phone. most embarrassing.

better than singing along when i have the roof down on the car though. i once got caught singing along to "the time of my life" by an entire bus-stop, it was MORTIFYING. esp as my car reg has my name on it, so they were calling out my name.... urgh!

Dad forgot Ma's birthday and it was around the time she needed a new car as the old one was falling appart, plus Ma' was always loosing her car in the carparks, so he got "[first initial] [DOB: day] [DOB: short month]". Then he did the same format for when he got his next car whenever that was.

Shouted at angrily, it was a 'woman' who works here
Has no concept of personal space, nor hygiene. She also speaks far too loudly, for no good reason.

It was before Christmas, as I've been pretty chilled out this year. She was just being a pain, and complaining about something that didn't affect her, and was actually none of her business, as I was sorting it. Eventually, I just told her to get away from my desk, as she was helping no-one, and giving me a headache. Highly entertaining.

Shouted at normally was my friend the other night, as we were at a gig, and a fucking cracking one at that.
