I hate passive aggression.
Maybe it’s just because I think it’s a little sneaky and underhanded. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I largely take things on face value so any passive aggression is lost on me anyway—at the time at least, I work out what happened after the fact, often after it’s too late. Maybe it’s because I’m not that good at it anyway. Maybe it’s because I think people should just be honest and not play mind games.
Whatever reason, I prefer any aggression to actually be aggressive.

I'd take obvious passive aggression over flying fists any day of the week, generally you can pull people up on it without being knocked into next week.
That other sort though, that I-might-be-angry-but-I-am not-giving-you-the-satisfaction-of-knowing-either-way type, that bites.
This is true sweetie, but when I say I prefer my aggression aggressive, I'm thinking more along the lines of screaming "I hate you" in the supermarket, rather than beating you into a pulp.
You make a good point though.
