This article is pretty ridiculous, but it's funny to read, since it's just that bad. So, I thought I'd ought to make an archive of it before it gets destroyed forever. If it's still there, you can find the actual article at Rage (emotion). This is how the article was as of 00:40, 29 December 2006 (UTC). Enjoy.

Rage is a state of anger so intense that one loses control of one's actions, often regretting what one did in this state afterwards. It can be caused by anything, but is typically triggered by the actions of someone, frequently close to the enraged person. The feeling can also lead to a state of mind that will push a person to thinking that he is capable of doing anything that would seem to be physically impossible.
Those in a state of rage usually experience extreme adrenaline rushes, which give them almost superhuman physical strength. A person in rage will also have the sensation that everything is happening in slow motion, due to their brain processing information at an accelerated rate. A person in a state of rage has lost much of his or her capacity for rational thought and reasoning, and is acting, usually violently, on his or her extreme anger.
Contrary to popular belief, a person (usually with a lighter complexion) in a state of rage typically has a pale, white face, instead of a red face. This is due to blood being reserved for the brain, and muscles, and taken away from extremities, skin, and non-vital internal organs. The reason most people believe that a red-faced person is in rage is that an angry (not necessarily enraged) person typically shouts, which causes a red face. A person in rage usually doesn't speak, and when they do, it's usually very minimally [citation needed].
A person in rage also has dilated pupils and experiences tunnel vision. They often enter an intense state of focus on the source of their anger. The large amounts of blood, adrenaline, and oxygen in the blood will cause a person's extremities to shake. A person in rage will hyperventilate with powerful, quick breaths, to get more oxygen into his blood stream [citation needed].
Contrary to popular belief, rage usually occurs in people who are very patient, and don't anger very easily, sometimes with passive-aggressive personalities. People like this are usually described as 'having a long fuse, with a lot of dynamite at the end'. Those who anger easily are not considered to be in rage, and, as previously mentioned, usually shout and have a blood-filled red face. Rage can be caused by long-term stress, or by a person close to them being hurt [citation needed].
A person in a rage becomes temporarily incapable of coherent thought and temporarily loses their consciousness [citation needed]. A person sometimes thinks over and over in their mind, 'kill, kill,' or something similar, and they attack, with all their strength, the person or object causing their rage. Sometimes people black out, or forget what occurred during their rage.
One's senses become extremely acute, due to the high amounts of adrenaline in the body, and, on the opposite end, this also reduces one's sensation of pain.
