Hmm - venting does have its benefits - like Humane suggests - break stuff, destroy something. I have a punchbag at home that I bash and kick nearly everyday and that helps a lot.
I've been experiencing the same thing at work lately - every single little thing sets me off on a rant - I found that when I get really angry, I try to remove myself from the situation immediately - just a quick walk around the office block or go make a cup of coffee. If I can't leave at the time (and it's so cliché but) - taking a deep breath and counting to ten before saying something has saved me from many nasty situations.
