Other Ways to Research the Angry Emotion, Please?

It's pretty easy to research the other emotions in Get Famous, but I actively avoid gigs where I know my Sims will have to research the angry emotion because of how difficult it is to do so. First off, if a Sim is not hot-headed, it's not easy to get them angry. The only surefire way to get a Sim who isn't hot-headed angry is to have them be mean to other Sims. I would prefer to not have to do this, though, since doing so causes their reputation to go down. When having to research the flirty emotion, there's an option to do so if you click on your Sim. Why do we not have this option for the angry emotion?

(Curiously, I've noticed that this option is also absent for the playful emotion. Maybe it's a bug? Let me know if you think I should make a thread on this in Bug Reports.)

But, long story short, I'd really appreciate it if other things counted toward researching the angry emotion. Just like with the flirty emotion, we should be able to click our Sims and get them in an angry mood on the spot. I suggest having angry-exclusive actions count, such kicking over trash cans, taking an angry poop, cooking angry flaming spaghetti (eating it could also count), making the boiler room drink (drinking it could also count), making an angry painting, doing angry workouts, and scribbling furiously in a journal. Shouting forbidden words could probably count as well.

    You do only have to click on your Sim to research the various emotions when you have a task to do so. Perhaps you weren't looking in the correct spot?

    Some gigs in the Actor career require you to "research angry emotion" before going on set. In order to research the angry emotion, it specifically tells you that you have to get into an Angry Emotion and perform Mean interactions. Just clicking "research angry emotion" does not complete the task, nor does it put the Sim in an angry mood.

    Hey @misskayla86 , I'm locking this thread to prevent necroposting since it's a bit old. Feel free to create a new thread in the forum if you still need help.
