Busting Up Shop... or perhaps your chops instead.

Office Space— the classic yet iconic flick nerds love.

For many (..of those who sport the sock-sandal ensemble?.. oops), this is considered the best movie scene ever..



Well, it turns out this smashing deed isn't just for geeks, the big screen, or men even.

A shopping mall in China has "opened a special store for [WOMEN ONLY] to break all kinds of things to relieve pressure and bad mood for a minute in Shenyang", according to People's Daily.

The store is partitioned by room theme, so women can choose to vent in a bedroom or living room— a kitchen is supposedly on its way.

Though the concept is pretty ingenius and absolutely hilarious, it's questionable whether dealing with frustration like this is productive. ..Might these behaviors eventually present themselves in real life?

Some healthy alternatives, or at least until we get one of these shops ourselves, you might consider these activities instead:
  • Pound pavement: Running or jogging work your body from head to toe, and if you do it long&hard enough, you're sure not to have energy to be angry thereafter.
  • Splash water: It's summer, man [&wo-]. If you need to vent, that's really all you do when you're under the deep blue.
  • Paddle water: If you don't want to actually get in it, try a canoe or kayak instead.
  • Hit the gym: If you really can't handle the great outdoors, get your heart pumping, body sweaty, and squeeze the negative energy out of you any which way you can, non-violently, that is. That's really the key to any great workout.

Happy Healthy Juicy Anger [&Fitness] Management!
