This is a weekly column written by The PawPrint?s own Nathan Gonzales. He hopes to humor you with a message.

Anger is bad, bad juju.

So bad, in fact, that it makes just about anyone a completely different person. I?m no stranger to the malevolency anger can create on one?s personality. No, it?s not some serious Jekyll and Hyde situation? more like a? oh, I don?t know what.

If you?re the die-hard weekly reader that I know you are, you?re well aware of how avidly I preach for a stress-free lifestyle. And anger is the ultimate stress. It?s like the Bizarro Superman to regular Superman. If you?re the die-hard weekly Action Comics reader that I know you are, you?re well aware of how much of a contrast that is.

There are many ways to relieve stress? such as long walks in the park? where those darn hippies throw the Frisbee around, and they always ask if they can use your cellphone, but you can?t hear what they?re saying over the screaming of the kids playing all over the place, and the dogs who bark all the time right after they do their business everywhere and their owners don?t even bother to pick it up?

Maybe the park isn?t such a good idea.

You can sit inside and read a good book? but then you accidently drop the book and lose your place, and you try to find it but all the pages just look so similar, so you give up and toss the book in the corner, but it hit some sort of sleeping rodent hiding in a dirty pile of clothes, causing it to run amuck around your room hissing and nipping at you while you try and hit it with more books, but you?ve realized that all your books are gone because you sold them all to buy them again in eBook form for your new Kindle?

Forget the book. This topic is quickly becoming moot.

Stress is not impossible to beat. Just think about something that you enjoy the most (with the least amount of irritable contingencies) and just do it.

I think about relieving stress and I become more and more sorry for Bruce Banner, aka The Incredible Hulk. If it weren?t for that dreadful accident with those gamma rays, he?d never have to deal with the transformation from a quiet and meek scientist into a green, 10 foot tall behemoth brought on by a surge of anger. Not only does he have to continuously buy new clothes after ripping them to shreds from the change, but he is also an unpredictable force when working with the Avengers or any other hero in the Marvel universe.

So, whenever stress has got you down, don?t feel so bad, because it could be worse. At least you?re not The Hulk.
