How do you guys cool down?

So I found myself snapping at people online a short while ago, some of them on this very site even, and realized I was feeling somewhat irritable today. 
 
When I'm feeling like that, I usually go and play with one of my pets, watch some overly silly YouTube videos, maybe check in with a friend via text, or look at blogs very much like this one (because who can stay cranky in the face of all those kittens?). 
 
Everybody has days when they feel grouchy for no reason in particular, so what do you guys do to get past such moods?

I am cranky usually :(

I can't care enough about some guy shitting on everybody in some Moba game to get angry. 10 years ago I would absolutely shit on them and it would lead to a mess every time. It's been a long time since I've been pissed about something someone wrote on the internet.

Find something to make you laugh or masturbate.

I like to lay down and listen to something like My Brother, My Brother and Me.

How do you guys cool down?

Freezing water; it's hard to stay mad when you're cold.

I like to take a cold shower after working out to cool off.

Never been "snapping" at people online, I don't see the reason to waste my time getting angry at people online. 
I care so little about them that their usernames are forgotten when I close a thread or a website down so they're not important to me at all. Could all die tomorrow and I wouldn't know or care about it.  
 
But when someone does make me angry in in the real world I just say fuck it, walk away and go do something relaxing or something I enjoy and then come back to the person a few hours later, tell them how I felt about them acting like a fucking moron and then that's that.  
That's just me though, especially the not-giving-a-fucking about random internet people, I seem to be alone when it comes to that mentality. 

wait

nothing works because even if it did I know it's just me ''ESCAPING FROM REALITY''

masturbation of course, it sucks out all the negative irritated energy out of you and.... spits it out.

I tend not to get angry. Anger never helps and it's just a mask for weakness.

I don't really get mad in my life but when I do, I just keep to myself. Then people bother me and I'm not mad anymore. Now when I'm mad at games, that's a different story. Yes I rage at games, so sod off!

I don't need to cool down, as I'm too emotionally effing mute to get to the point where I'd need to cool down.

What if I stole all your video games?

@Unknown_Pleasures:

I'd easily find out, get all my games back from you, make sure you'd never steal my games again, and continue living my life. 'Tis that simple.

come on this is like an invitation to go to an inappropriate place.

I don't look at kittens, that's for sure. Little shits piss me off.

I usually play a single-player video game. Doesn't matter what, I just play one. Come to think of it, that's my response to a lot of emotions. Content? Play a video game! Calm? Play a video game! Angry? Play a video game! Social? Play a video game! Horny? Play a video game! Sad? Play a video game! Annoyed? Play a video game! Depressed? Play a video game!

Beat the rentboy I have tied up in the extra bedroom. Props to anyone who gets the reference.

@ninjakiller: Justified?

On the rare occasions I get snappy I listen to music and find funny things on the internet. Maybe some standup comedy or something like that.

i take a chill pill. what else? this has been standard medical advice for a number of decades.

I like playing my "murder simulators". Then one day when that doesn't help I will take everything I've learned from my "murder simulators" and take it out on actual people. That's how it works right?

Think of Ewoks.

I'll just leave this here and maybe some of you kiddies will understand one day

I try to keep in mind that your emotional state is like a vortex for events occurring in physical reality. I'm a firm believer that your consciousness shapes reality to a degree. So being negative, angry, and pissed off serves no purpose other than being detrimental to your own well being. I try to look at every moment in my life, even the seemingly awful painful ones and I meditate on how they could be beneficial to me, or what purpose they have served. Like if I was never in that car accident I would have never met my current lover. It's all about perspective baby.

And if all that fails find a hot tub and roll a blunt.

I learn obscure words like obganiate and quadragintesimal or even facundity. Did you know that it is improper to say "I'm nauseous" or "I feel nauseous"? Saying this implies that other people feel nauseated when they look at you. It's correct to say "I feel nauseated." And did you know, when something is described as decimated it literally means that only 1/10th of it was destroyed? People today throw this word around as though it means everything was destroyed. It's poppycock I tell you.

masturbate.

I remember my Epictetus.

"Begin therefore with little things. A little oil is spilled, a little wine is stolen: say, 'This is the price of tranquility; this is the price of not being upset.' Nothing comes for free."

Don't get mad, get even.

@CaLe: That's an interesting way to blow off steam. However, your anger towards people's modern usage of decimate is a bit misguided. If you want to get angry, take it up with Webster (or your preferred dictionary compiler) because one of the dictionary definitions of the word is to destroy a large part of something.

For some real fun, look up the origin of the word decimate - it comes from the Roman army's practice of killing one out of every 10 soldiers from mutinous or cowardly units.

Video Games and/or music.

Edit: Then I say Czechoslovakia 100 times.

I found that loudly reciting Shakespeare soliloquies helps. No, seriously: I was super pissed off about this girl and I had to practice King Claudius's "Oh, my offence is rank" speech from Hamlet for my English class. I locked myself in my room and shouted my lines at the wall for half an hour and felt amazingly better.

Masturbate or have sex furiously.

I also play an online FPS I know I'm good at, as destroying virtual people is good at calming the rage. Physical exercise, particularly weights or boxing, help too.

I very rarely get that angry though, I'm generally a cold bastard.

I PLAY videogames to cool down. Haven't touched a multiplayer game in 10 year and that's precisely the reason.

Talk about it with a friend. I find it tremendously helpful.

I don't get angry at people online. I don't see why you should.

I either take a nap, or sit outside for a bit.

I listen to music that'll indulge the angry mood I'm in. If something's really fucking with me it helps if I smoke a little weed, step back, and look at my situation. I stopped getting angry at people online when I realized you simply can't have everyone see things your way. Some men....You just can't reach.

Listen to music

Either watch tv, listen to soothing music, play any video game or go hiking outside my house. I'll also work out if I'm really in the mood.

do some stuff that i can take my mind off. i don't usually get angry.

I almost never get mad at people on the internet anymore (when I first started posting on message boards I was a bundle of rage), but if I am especially irritable for some reason I know that it's a good day to lift some weights. Hard to be angry when you're too tired to think about anything.

Just try to chill out and listen to some relaxing music.

I think if they "all" died you would probably notice, The internet would be like a post-apocalyptic wasteland. As for me I don't really bother getting angry on the web much, when I get mad in real life I used to smoke a cigarette, but since I quit 6 months ago I just flip on people now.

I just look at this.

Recreational drugs. Or you know, just listen to music, watch some comedy... punch something.

EDIT: Wow. Completely forgot the thing I do the most, which is stare up at the sky. Day or night it always works. Wherever I am in the world I know I can just go outside and gaze. If its stormy and/or raining then even better, that's my favourite weather.

@nail1080: I like where you're coming from.
