What is livid?

liv·id  (lvd)

adj.

1. Discolored, as from a bruise; black-and-blue.

2. Ashen or pallid: a face livid with shock.

3. Extremely angry; furious.

The livid I refer to is number 2, it usually starts off small then suddenly explodes, I wont say like a volcano because that would be annoying and pathetically predictable so I shall say like a ... water balloon, which is quite frankly an amazing metaphor because like water balloons, livid explosions can usually dry up and be forgotten although sometimes that wet patch just sits there for ages and nobody bother picking up the balloon bits because its too late now anyways. Alsooooo if the person that the livid is directed at catches the balloon then it can stop the water from bursting out.
