A [[Super-Trope]] for when you just don't want to tick off a character. Bad things will happen, which can include:
Line 18 ⟶ 19:
* [[Tranquil Fury]] (the character's ready to tear you apart in a seemingly calm manner)
* [[Unstoppable Rage]] (the character gets righteously pissed and pulls out all the stops to take you down)
 
 
It doesn't matter if the character is the hero, villain, supporting character, or bystander. Just don't piss off this character if you don't want big trouble.
Line 25:
 
Compare [[Madness Tropes]] and [[Don't Make Me Destroy You]].
 
{{examples}}
 
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Dragon Ball]]''--:
** Son Gohan. Any Saiyan for that matter, but Gohan most.
** Piccolo too.
Line 40:
* Setsuna, from ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', is a quiet and polite girl who prefers to stay in the background. Usually, she's really calm and composed even in the heat of battle. But don't, just don't you dare harming [[Les Yay|Konoka]] unless you want her to butcher you in split-seconds.
 
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* [[Trope Namer|Named]] after [[Marvel Comics]]'s Bruce Banner (a.k.a. the [[Incredible Hulk]]), who uses this line to warn people of his [[Hulking Out]] ability. [[Tempting Fate|It doesn't always work.]]
* [[Superman]] is one of the nicest guys in the universe. But if someone gets him angry, they find out just how powerful he really is. It says a lot about [[Lex Luthor]] that he intentionally does things ''just to piss Superman off''.
Line 52:
{{quote|"There are aspects of my personality that I can't control, and when I lose control, it's very dangerous to be around me."}}
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* In ''[[Nightside|A Hard Day's Knight]]'', John and Suzie use their own variant to intimidate an uncooperative laundromat employee:
{{quote|'''Shotgun Suzie:''' You really want me to get cranky?
Line 86:
* In the "Grim Tales" quest in ''[[RuneScape]]'', Glod the Giant shouts "[[Hulk Speak|You wouldn't like Glod when Glod angry!]]"
 
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* Inverted in [http://darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0613.html this] ''[[Darths and Droids]]'': "You won't like me when I'm calm."
 
Line 110:
** [[Hilarious in Hindsight|That same line happened]] (In Portuguese) in ''[[The Incredible Hulk]]''.
* [[Samurai Jack]] is ''usually'' a calm, stoic type, but when something happens to make him angry, ''run for cover''. This side of Jack shows prominently in episodes like "Mad Jack", "Jack and the Smackback", and ''many'' episodes of Season 5.
