When circumstances dictate that I could be legitimately angry, I have to consciously realize it, then decide whether "acting" angry will get me any useful compensation. Usually I just take the path of least resistance and I continue with my patient self, and people are grateful. It buys me goodwill for when I need favors.

When reading these threads (they crop up once in a while, pet peeves and whatnot), I marvel at how angry some of you get on a regular basis.

Like some romcom or reality show, which he hates. But then he just... won't go. He'll sit there watching whatever it is with me, sometimes vocally complaining about it, and not going to bed. It drives me crazy! I'll tell him if he's going to stay out in the living room he can't criticize what I'm watching, and he'll be quiet, but it will still annoy me he's there. I normally love his company but there's something about this specific situation that just makes me want to tell him to GTFO. I just want some alone time.

Building on this, posters here who post a multi-paragraph about how terrible their husband is, but refer to his as "DH" throughout. The D stands for dear, you nitwit, and based on your post, he is anything but.
