Is it mostly true that the nicest people are scarier when they had enough?

I mean I've gotten pissed off at someone because I've had enough of them and told them off! Most of them were scared when I got pissed off. I did cuss which I'm ashamed of.

Not necessarily.
Most nice people just politely distance themselves,
or ease away so slowly that it's not noticed,
or practice skillful avoidance.

However, people who suppress anger for a long time may explode in a way that seems out of proportion to the apparent trigger.
And for the person on the receiving end, the sudden explosion may seem out of character.
This usually means they were insensitive to the more subtle signs that were always there.
