    You’re missing the point of the metaphor and isn’t saying the exact same thing over and over again what your original complaint is?

    You’re not wrong that screaming isn’t going to directly repair/replace your phone, but it’s not about “feeling good” or “doing anything useful” it’s about preventing further damage.

      I’m not missing the point of the metaphor; I’m saying you are using a metaphor to avoid dealing with what I wrote.

      It’s funny that you’d want police to defuse a tense situation, and then say yelling is a reasonable way to stop the cops from getting angry.

          How about dealing with things I’ve written and not trying to turn back the page?

            At no point did I say that, defusing a tense situation does not resolve the tension and can easily be counterproductive.

            yelling is a reasonable way to stop the cops from getting angry.

            Again I did not say that. Their anger is their emotions and nobody else can control that. Yelling can be a very useful tool to disrupt, distract or be confrontational in order protect others, redirect that anger, or aggressively educate.

            You’re getting mad and arguing with an imaginary Boogeyman.

            Your turn to deal with what I’ve written.
