Think about it this way - every time you get pissed at someone, you're giving them power over you. They control you by getting you angry and making you incapable of doing much else. Ask yourself "is this smacktard really worth my time & energy?"
Another thing to do is to reduce the forms of stress in your life as much as possible. Exercise is a good start. I added to that starting my own company so I'm the boss, keeping my apartment clean so I never come home to a pigsty, cancelling my home internet & TV so that I can focus on doing stuff that makes me feel good about myself like learning to play the guitar, cooking, reading more books, and so on. It has helped me to feel more in charge, more "ahead of the game", and yes, even a little superior to the shitheads that try to piss me off.
Weed & booze are loser suggestions - sure, they'll mellow you out. But eventually you'll wake up a decade older having spent all your money on drugs and all your problems will still be there. Fix your problems first. Then IF you choose to have a toke it'll be that much more fun because you're not running from your life, you're enhancing it.
I used to be exactly the same way as you, and on the rare occasion that I do get angry (maybe once a year) it still takes me a good 2 hours to calm down and another 4 to stop obsessing over how fucking stupid the whole thing was. The worst is if it happens at a party because then I get no sleep at all.
At least I can channel it into angry sex with my submissives.
