Phobia of the Week – Angrophobia

What is it?

Angrophobia is the fear of anger or of becoming angry.

People you’re most likely to encounter with this phobia:

• Democrats in Washington D.C.–because it might actually make them look like they have a spine.
• Parents of the loudest most annoying children in a restaurant or a mall.  They’re afraid of being viewed as authority figures by their kids.
• Canadians.  When was the last time you saw an angry Canadian?  Except for the ones playing in the NHL, they’re all so even keel.

If you suffer from it:

• You probably shouldn’t drive on expressways or surface streets, hell you shouldn’t drive at all.
• Probably shouldn’t have kids.
• Probably best to avoid any news programming on CNN, MSNBC, or Fox News.
• You shouldn’t leave the house, if you have a really short fuse.
