The Down Side of Anger

Just because I'm a little slow on the get-go I just found out that Acidman passed away. I just happened to look at my site meter search words and someone landed on my blog by doing a search on "acidman suicide". So I decided to check out the Acidman and whoa...sort of a shock. My prayers and condolences for the family.

Now first and foremost I AM NOT SAYING Acidman committed suicide or implying, hinting...whatever. Those were the search words someone used PERIOD. I have no clue of the cause of death and it's none of my business.

I read Acidman for quite awhile...and as probably many in the blog world you loved him or hated him, depending on the day or the post it could be both. I know for a fact no other blog I've ever read could provoke such a wide range of emotions... in me anyway. He had the ability to make you cry tears with laughter or sadness. But damn could that boy piss you off. I've never met the man but there is no doubt in my mind he could make a trigger finger itchy or count ten ways til Sunday how to position your hand to deliver a bitch-slap.

Anyway I had to quit reading Gut Rumbles, although fascinating in a train wreck sort of way, negativity breeds negativity. I can fall in that mode so easily...and no one likes to be around constant smoldering anger and negativity. Sweet Jesus we can't even stand ourselves when we get in that mode. It's nothing but self-pity, ugly and oh so very selfish. We've all had one or two people in our lives who fits that mold. I've definitely gone in and out of it in my life.... and please God may you send someone to bitchslap me into next week if it starts again.

But then again, if you whine, complain and be nasty on your blog...does it vent your frustrations so you can be "nice and pleasant" in the real world? Or is it just indicative of who you really are? Somehow I don't like that idea.

I came across your blog quite by accident and found you commentary very interesting. Especially those about Acidman. I recently began a blog myself and made some comments about him as well.
Keep up the good work. I'll be checking in.
