But people use "mad" all the time to mean angry.

We can be mad at someone or something, but usually just about a person.

We can be mad about something, but we can be angry at, with, or about.

If you're angry at something, it means you're basically directing your anger towards that

It's a very creative language when it comes to anger.

So, first of all, you can be pissed off, okay?

That just basically means you're very angry.

Ticked off and pissed off mean the same thing.

Ticked off is a little bit more polite, a little bit more gentle than pissed off.

Hell is a very angry place, very hot and the devil lives there, so very angry.

And people sometimes say "madder n' hell", madder than hell.

some people might get the wrong meaning from that as well.

So, if you're livid, furious, or incensed, you might even have a fit.

You can't control your body; it's just shaking from anger.

If you're throwing a tantrum, usually we say this about children.
