Like @Demosthenes I admit I have a quick Irish temper, but I also don’t stay mad long. Typical redhead in that aspect. I never forget a slight, but that just means I avoid you completely or if forced, stay very polite and nothing more.
For me ‘release the Kraken’ means I’ve seen red, which happens very rarely. It did happen with a neighbor woman about 10 years ago.
My triggers in this instance, like the neighbor woman using the N word to her mixed child that I adore.
The next time was at a council meeting, when the public was harassing a builder in my city and they made his wife cry, they were very nasty. I apologized to the builders on behalf of the people there and then voted yes on it in front of them the same night.
The time before that, another woman was very sloppy at a bar and harassing my friend who was the bartender.
