you know, when you see a politician do something that you just hate or when, you know, your spouse treats you badly or when your parents treat you badly or whatever, a friend takes advantage of you, like the real extreme, cruel, terrible things, right? And it exists. And so it's everything from like mild frustration to just being livid with rage, that whole spectrum.

I guess in my next thought, like – because anger gives me a sense – sometimes it's like an illusionary sense that I have some control over what's going on. Yeah. But at the same time, I feel out of control. Right.

Yeah. This is one of the things that, so I don't know if you've ever had this experience, but have you ever been so angry that you started to cry? Is that something you can think of?
