So I just happened upon I Feel Angry, and thought "Hmm, that trope isn't a very good example. And neither's that one. Better edit it, and while I'm at it it's odd there isn't a link to Show, Don't Tell. Wait, this description doesn't sound like the same thing at a... "Not to be confused with That Makes Me Feel Angry". Oh, well, of course not, how could you possibly confuse it with that?"

We must be able to do better than this. Unused To Anger? Is This What Anger Feels Like?? Polite Fury?

oh, wow. random, but i thought this was about the hulk. surprised i would definitely vote for a rename, although pending a wick check.

i like Is This What Anger Feels Like?, although it's kinda long.

Wow. I came in here all ready to defend the trope title because I thought this was about That Makes Me Feel Angry.

Definitely rename.

Support stupid freshness, yo.

I'm not sure I'd consider Is This What Anger Feels Like? (or Is This What Anger Feels Like?) long. Three trochees, just like That Makes Me Feel Angry; it doesn't feel long.

This still needs to be changed.

Teach Him Anger? never-mind it was used for another trope

Also, I'm not sure about exactly what this trope is — it seems to combine two things.

Cute, ineffective foot-stomping anger played for laughs might be covered by Cutely Angry

Alternatively, it could be when the fact that this character is angry is itself terrifying even when they're speaking in a level tone of voice, or when a character remains calm and level despite being furious (but I think we have another trope for that? Some of the examples seem like they're confusing this for another trope.)

Could This Be Rage? sounds pretty good unless you want specifically anger in the title. And I'm pretty sure we could find anything with that to be the trope namer.

[up] I think "rage" implies "lots of anger", whereas the trope covers a little bit of / unexpressed anger ("without any rage") too.

I like What Is This Thing You Call Anger, I think the analogy is appropriate and it passes the Guess That Trope test.

This trope is not like What Is This Thing You Call "Love"?. The character knows what anger is, they just haven't felt it before and don't really have a normal anger reaction yet.

I agree with Is This What Anger Feels Like?? I too originally thought this was That Makes Me Feel Angry, the title for this is too unrecognizable.

Renamed to Is This What Anger Feels Like?? I haven't made a ptitle because the punctuation is only at the end, so people can always add it like so.
