A is for Anger
Definition: a feeling of hostility that often follows being tarpooned
Pronunciation: \ang’-ger\
Function: noun
Usage (by the unemployed):
Good: Anger is energy that can motivate you to act. Anger’s impact can be contagious because your actions can motivate others to act.
Bad: But anger can also motivate you to act foolishly, like blaming the people you love for your hurt. When your anger is used to make others angry it will boomerang, serving to increase everybody’s anger in an infinite feedback loop.
