My strategy depends on the particular shade of negativity I’m experiencing.
Since 2016, I’ve been mad – a lot. Anger can be channeled into productivity, but sometimes it needs to be unleashed. I find swearing to be one of the best ways to deal with anger. Sometimes (usually after watching the news), I let rip a loud string of F-bombs and then I can move on. Thank goodness my husband and I are 100% in agreement on politics. I don’t know how anyone is surviving in a politically “mixed marriage” at this point.
Do you remember when Trump visited Scotland in 2016? The coverage of their reaction was the absolute best. Does any other brand of English-speakers curse more creatively than the Scots? I don’t fucking think so.

Those comments are priceless. You’re right… I wish I could curse like that. I loved each and every one of them.
Yes…f-bombs are therapeutic. Let them fly.

That is so great! I never saw those responses from the Scotts before, but it felt like they were getting those from one of the “Shakespearean insult generators“!
