I think that, in any tough situation, there's a kind of normal way a person can react and a completely angry, psycho, absurd way a person can react. The normal way is the best way about 99.99% of the time. Example: A waiter brings you the wrong drink, so you politely ask for another. Result: You get the drink you wanted without traces of type 1 herpes. See? Everybody wins. Anyway, that's the rational way to responding to a bad situation. Here's an example of the irrational:My husband had repeatedly warned our 3 boys about their behavior while playing the XBOX. Tuesday, after I arrived home from work, our oldest son told me to look in the backyard at "Dad's artwork". Well, I wasn't surprised to see the XBOX proudly displayed on the nearest tree... way to go Honey!!!!!Maybe the boys were jackasses. Maybe they deserved it. Or maybe, just maybe, the father antagonized a bit too much and will come home from work one day to some "artwork" made just for him. [ireport thanks tipsters!]
