Angry Man - A History


A few years ago, a few of us got together and said, let's watch movies. Manly movies. Movies that are good, bad and mostly ugly. (please refer to the rules at top of blog.) Things that most women would leave the room in disgust upon viewing or even at the mere mention of. That's it.

Why "Angry"? Well my friend Bryan has a very close friend and mutual friend of mine, Brian. In order to delineate between the two (and create a fun nickname at the same time) Angry Brian, the nomenclature, was born. It's not that Brian was excessively angry - more of a brooding and dark type, which if you ask me are good qualities. Perhaps this stemmed from a not-so-great-at-the-time female relationship, or simply part of his nature. At any rate, the name stuck. Being that it was a fun name and Bryan, "Angry" and myself were all present at the viewings, the Angry was quickly transferred to Angry Man Movie Night.

Angry Brian has since moved away from the area, but the name has stuck. Consider this a re-launch and formalization of one fantastic idea. I urge you - start your own Angry Night - free of the constraints and pressures of modern society. Grab your caveman club and JOIN US!
