I admit to being in lots of verbal and even physical altercations, even having guns pulled on me multiple times during my 33 year sentence in the Bayou S h ! tty, I had crazy road rage and generally just hated everything and everybody.
I attribute this primarly to a bad marriage, after I divorced, getting custody of my daughters and getting the fk out of that place in '07 life fell into place and I calmed down immensely. I don't recall a verbal altercation after leaving with anyone and my tolerance for idiots is very high . Other factors that contribute to my higher level of tolerance is age, MMA (I never was good at fighting and have no interest in broken arms, legs or a busted up face) and so many are armed including me.
Yeah, I may cuss in the truck at a dumbass that crosses over the center line, honk my horn at a person sitting at a green light texting but no running people off the road, single finger salutes, jumping out of the truck or challenging strangers on the street.
Life is good now.
