The annoyingly aggressive driver right on your tail. The early morning telemarketing call. The noisy crinkling of candy wrappers at the most delicate moment of a piece. This movement is an expression not of the biblical wrath that brought on wars and plagues, but of a modern-day version that seethes, curses and imagines sweet vengeance for those petty little transgressions that can aggravate even the most imperturbable of us.
