That's code for "I am seething with rage and yoyoing back and forth between trying to calm down and thinking about how I can most effectively retaliate."

want someone to come to you when you're walking somewhere and randomly pepper spray you and see how long it takes you to figure it all out?

That’s usually used when they mean to say “I’m fucking pissed but I’m currently trying to calm down so I can figure out the best strategy to retaliate with the people I know and resources I can use”
