Other 'Rages'

 Over the past couple of months, I've noted this 'white rage' business being talked about and finally considered that there are other rages:

1.  Farmer rage.  This is typically where Farmer Joe has discovered that Monty (his new bull) has torn down the fence on the far side of the farm, for the 3rd time.  This rage usually means Farmer Joe is going to load Monty on the trailer for a butcher shop visit.

2.  Engineer rage.  This is typically where Marvin has walked into the office on a Monday and discovered the project which he'd been working on, with four months remaining on development and testing....has been cut down to three weeks.  The rage just pours out of Marvin at the sales team and boss.  He leaves work at 4 PM and settles into a 8-hour visit to a topless dancer bar.  The rage drives Marvin for seven days....when he finally delivers the product.  

3.  Professor rage.  This is typically where the university lessen the entry levels, and Professor Fred now realizes that he has people in the class with a 5th-grade level of knowledge and asking stupid questions.  

4.  Farm-extension-agent rage.  This is typically where the farm agent for the county discovers the whole past agenda for the thirty years has been dumped, and some weird agricultural agenda comes down.....which makes no sense to him, or the local farmers.

5.  Trailer-trash rage.  This is where Jeffrey (a trailer park resident) realizes that virtually all of the gals who were in the trailer park have left, and these seemingly intellectual gals (having wrapped up the 10th grade) have arrived, dress decently, and avoiding drinking until after 6 PM.  

6.  McDonalds rage.  This is generally where the manager realizes the nutritional value posters that he was forced to put up.....has triggered people to read the values, the menus, and grasp that 95-percent of the menu is unsafe to eat....so they don't shop at McDonalds anymore.

7.  Intellectual rage.  This is generally where two or more intellectuals meet, and realize they have opposing viewpoints, and argue for six hours over their views....with no conclusive end.

8.  Biden rage.  This is typically where the President walks into the bathroom at 6 AM, and argues in a hyped-up way with himself in the mirror for 20 minutes before realizing it's just a reflection of himself.

9.  CNN rage.  This is typically where sixteen production people have worked for six hours to build a one-hour program with an idiot that they can't stand, and they eventually realize fewer than 400k people from the nation watch their show, with half of them in a mental ward.  

10.  Hispanic rage.  This is typically where Juan is sitting with some work-associate and the guy asks when Juan came across the border.  Juan responds angrily that his folks were in Texas in the 1820s and were part of group at the Alamo (meaning the Texas folks).
