Ya know, I was just thinking the other day, there's a weird NT "emotion" I simply cannot understand... it's sort of a happy-rage. Like they'll be happy/excited/etc. about something, yet have a negative tone and even negative facial expressions. They might yell something like, "UGH are you kidding me?! That's really awesome!" And like in Despicable Me, when Agnes said, "It's so fluffy!" I hope this at least makes a little sense. XD It's quite confusing, so also quite hard to explain.


I think that's sort of like the serial killer's "happy" - like a release of steam. Temporary satisfaction for an especially unhappy or cynical or bitter person. Happy people don't kill people or think "ugh" stuff is "awesome" but profoundly unhappy people seem to feel a sort of release in some forms of awfulness.

In myself, anything not anger.

In other people,....I find happiness easy and everything else is equally difficult. I'm really bad at reading faces and emotions.
