Anti-Vent

[Majobu5]

Today, I went out to decorate the house for Xmas. I started to wrap the rope light around the palm tree, the kids were on their bikes, and it began to sprinkle. I thought I had an hour before it fell, but no. That sprinkle turned into a shower in a matter of seconds. We were in a rush to get the tree wrapped, the kids went frantic to get undercover, the neighbor is applauding us on the "dedication" of braving the rain, and once it got done, we all rushed to get the inside decorations out of the rain and into the house.
Now, it might sound like a vent, but we had fun! Once the dust settled, we all just took in that adrenaline and had a laugh about it.
I thought it was cool, and F you if you care less!😁

Chopping firewood (so satisfying to feel the heft of the ax and the split as it sunders the wood), emptying a few mags out of my 1911 and test cutting with my swords are my main go to's.  BUT, I am in a situation where those are not options at the moment.  So....watching Vanoss and H20 Delirious videos and polishing the weapons mentioned earlier suffice....  Anything to keep away from stress/angry eating.

I know that feeling. The best part is when the log doesn't split apart all the way, but enough that you can just rip it apart with you hands. Makes you feel really good then.
Or punching a punching bag so hard that the chain breaks, and it goes flying back against the wall. That is good too.

Agreed on the wood, many a time I have picked up a piece and ripped it apart enjoying the feeling...much like Cap in Age of Ultron.  As to the punching bag, never hit one hard enough to knock it off the chain (my father could and still can)..but I did rip one down from the limb it was hanging from...with the limb still attached to the chain.....back when I was strong and young.

Music for me. Right now these are the songs that get me out of bad moods:

I think you may have just involuntarily impregnated about ten women with the amount of manliness you just spewed out.

That exactly how I feel. Cap from A:AOU, and Cap from Avengers. The chain was a little rusty, but we wont think about that(hehe).

I've always thought that sound of log quarters falling into piles was something that brings an almost obscene amount of pleasure to my ears.

It helps to release your anger that has been building up.

No. I can't split wood to save my life. I'm just saying that the sound produced fills me with every good feeling.

Well you should learn, it is a very good skill to have. Especially where I live.

Not much to learn.

1) Swing axe
2) split wood

My lack of ability comes from lack of coordination with an axe, due to lack of practice, due to lack of necessity.

Actually, there's a bit more to it than that. You have to hit the wood in just such a way that it splits down pretty much the middle in order to get the right size pieces. Also you need to make sure the wood is of a proper age. Too old and it'll burn itself out before the fire gets good, which wastes time and effort as well as firewood. Too green and the wood will smoke like crazy, ruining the enjoyment of the fire and presenting a health risk that's far in excess of the benefits.

I love chopping firewood. I get to break something.
