rage raGE UNCONTROLLABLE RAGE

Grandpa Oddball — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 22:48:40 +0000

Blind irrational overwhelming unreasoning rage striking without warning. Sometimes amusing in a perverse sort of way but often causing not just havoc but, on occasion, death.

If I listened to my son he would have installed a big aah-ooga horn.
