Choleric-
reckless smiles, forging ahead, "shut up and listen!", running down the soccer field, choosing a fork in the road, "to be completely honest...", shoulders back, biting sarcasm, working late hours, "i don't need your help", running into a brick wall, protest signs held high, strong handshakes, talking louder than everyone else, wading across the river, "fight! fight! fight!", lit-up scoreboards, boldface fonts, all-caps messages, "never give up", persuasive essays, broken tempers
