In this episode of The Happy Rant Ted, Ronnie, and Barnabas wander to and fro through a variety of topics:

2. Identity everything - claiming and defending holidays or anything else
3. When is aggression the right response to anything?
4. Holding your ground vs. being an aggressive jerk
5. How the insistence of having a take feeds aggression and anger
