I agree unless it is an actual occasion where someone needs to calm down. Like...in cases of emergencies or something.

My husband does it to me. We've been together for 20 yrs & he still doesn't get it.

Yeah, if I just cut off my leg and I'm hyperventilating and the EMT is trying to stop the bleeding so I live, by all means, tell me to calm down. But other
than that, leave me alone.

My mom would beat my ass when I told her to "calm down". I could tell her to shut up, that I hated her, etc. but as soon as I told her to calm down
my ass was grass.

Well, probably because she was calm until you asked her that!

Oh god, I hate that! My boyfriend says it a lot. We'll be discussing a problem and I'll say something I don't like or whatever and he'll tell
me to 'calm down'. Bitch, I was calm before you said that!

I hate that. Especially when they're the one who isn't calm.
Or how about when people say "sit down." Yes, because I'm standing up typing. |
