Considerate people only scream in the company toilets for this reason.

Much less to scream about when you don’t have to spend time in a car on a freeway every day!

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

There's no set time or place. It all comes out whenever it decides it's time. There's no predicting it or controlling it, a lot like pooping.

Wait your poop is just coming out of control at random?

[–] SourDragon@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Perhaps that's why they scream at random? 🤔🐲

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

And, what, I guess you're some kind of fart master!? Give me a break.

[–] FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago

A true master has complete control over their gas as a result of years of sphincter training.

I leave for work early to beat traffic and have 15 to 20 minutes to myself. I park on the far side to get my steps in. Doing this, I'm assured to not be disturbed while I have mini breakdowns and ugly cry. :D

But my commute is what causes most of my screaming!

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

I channel it into the stabbing.

Do it on the job while job hunting if it's that bad

The amount of r-words in chat

[–] Tudsamfa@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

I just take a nice, relaxing ride on my bicycle to a nearby park instead.

The ducks have learned about this habit and leave me alone now, fearing for their eardrums.

[–] brap@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Y'all don't just whip out the ceremonial screaming cushion when you need it?

[–] M137@lemmy.today 4 points 2 days ago

My action paralysis, social anxiety and paranoia of others hearing makes me internalise the screams. It doesn't work very well.

[–] nehal3m@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago

I scream on my motorcycle

[–] br0da@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Pillow for sure. Back in the day it used to be a walk-in freezer.

[–] django@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 3 days ago

Into the pillow. Or walk into the woods for some weeping.

[–] FollyDolly@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I live pretty rural so I just go outside and scream at the sky from my lawn.

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 3 points 3 days ago

The elites don't want you to know this but you can actually scream pretty much anywhere, anytime. I like to do it on the subway during rush hour.

The only downside of working remotely

Late at night when the neighbors are sleeping.

[–] RaoulDuke25@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Restroom at work

Into the void. I'm not sure how I get there, but sometimes it just kinda happens

Anyway it's the shower

[–] uber_chicken@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Internally at the gym
