Barely bat an eyelid when I lose a ship. Got caught at a gate after ratting and I was halfway down the stairs for a cup of tea before the ship blew.
Thinking about it I could a couple of cruisers with me lol

Normally the caluclator just starts going in my head, figuring if I can replace that setup/ have a replacement/ etc.
The only time I got mouthy, actually got me female trouble for a couple of days. My GF decided that she would mess with me and hit a bunch of keys on the keyboard while I was playing. The problem was I was in the final room of a lv4 in a Sleipner (sp?). Ya, guess who's guns she turned off (which were desperately trying to kill the scrammers that they could barely hit, as my last two drones chipped in) along with half my tank.
I couldn't decide what was worse, the corp on my case for loosing the Sliep I had just bought and fit the previous day to... a mission test, or my GF for the next two days giving me crap for getting way over upset about a ship IG and basicaly screaming in her face that "she was going to f'in kill me, gtf off now!"

Losing a ship? Meh...
It's when you get podded, set a new clone location, undock and self-destruct without updating your clone that it gets Ç(/%&##&/%QÇ verbally abusive

My verbal rage is directly proportional to how poorly exploited/ganked/cheated I feel.
If I lose a ship in a great fight, or to a superior pilot, I actually feel good after. *curses Garmon quietly*
If I lose my ship to some smack talking FOTM ganker/exploiter who swings his ePeen in local after I really just want to find a random child on the street and punch him square in the face.

I'm normally very calm about ship losses, the only time I've really lost it is when one of those random bs uncloaking situations happened, I was 50km away from a hostile group watching a buddy get ganked, next thing I know I'm uncloaked and there's lots of red flashy stuff. I shouted a few obsceneties onto vent that night, and no.... my corp won't let me live it down :D

last time I lost a ship, it was a gallente shuttle, and it was to NPCs so it wasn't that frustrating.
the time before that, though, it was a curse.. and a curse I had *just* fitted... from buying it to losing it, it took only around 20 minutes.
at the time of the loss there really wasn't that much I could do about it. webbed, scrambled, drones were WAAY off on some errand of their own making... all I could do was sit there and watch my ship break apart.
I think I might have hammered my hand into the wall, focused on that -more tangible- pain and then carried on.

When it's related to lag, I still stare open-mouthed at the screen waiting for the lag fairy to come by and explain the reason why lag is an important factor of life.
When it's related to my own stupidity (like when I told a RL friend to warp to my smartbombing Domi right after the fleet 'fix'.... yeah, that was the last time I put a smartbomb on), then the typical reaction is: /facepalm
Edit: and if it's due to PvP, I kinda figure that's the natural progression, you know? Buy new ship, fly to WT, shoot WT, get blown up by WT, buy new ship, fly to WT...

2 years ago, I cussed and moaned and generally was a very poor loser. Doubly so in a couple of really crappy circumstances. Specifically, losing a faction fitted raven while ratting 2 jumps from my alliance HQ system. I got ganked, and NO ONE came to help even thought I was 2 jumps away from over 100 of my alliance and corp mates. I lasted 35 minutes against a Vaga, Raptor, and an AF (not sure which one anymore).
Killed the AF too, he was slow to warp. The other two just kept trading scram on me and warping away when my torps removed their shields. It was a great fight actually, but at the time I was so mad at my corp/alliance that I couldn't even speak.

Assuming you ever were in a position to lose a ship, or maybe are in a position where you lose ships constantly ?
Of course, the value of the ship/gear could have a huge influence too, or maybe that value compared to the total wealth you have, percentually ?
Me... I tend to fly relatively cheap ships to begin with, and I'm not very often in the position where I would risk losing one that is worth a noticeable percentage of my wealth... as a consequence, I believe my worst verbal outburst so far went something like "whoops... gatecamp, guys, don't jump... running back for the gate... webbed... gonna' die here, not gonna' make it... yup, dead. Damn, there goes the +2 set too... Oh well..."
How about you ?
Early on, it bothered me a lot. I wouldn't get verbally abusive at the computer, but I'd have some choice words in game.
I think that changed once and for all when my first carrier was lost. In alliance chat and on a couple shared intel channels, there was a lot of kvetching and complaining going on about people who did or didn't rally effectively to help, so I finally just unloaded on the channel where the most people were in all caps that it was my ship, I paid for it, it was my decision to use it, and it was my responsibility that it was lost without adequate support, and that it was insured and that'd I'd be back in another one in a day. And damned if I wasn't.
Since then (three months ago) I've lost another carrier and a few assorted other ships, and the only one that's bothered me was the one Drake lost to an alliance POS that was not properly configured for alliance use.

Tell her that these ships have real cash value because of the GTC exchange, and tell her that her interference cost you money, and she should give you head in compensation or you'll take it out of her ass some other way.

I lost my first ship to a player a week or so ago- I got very nearly instapopped.
I had wondered how I would react to such a situation. When I went up I said very calmly on the vent- "I'm down, warping my pod out." I guess I did OK. ;)
I wasn't even annoyed, except that I had lost my ship by being stupid.
Now, when I lost my covops to sentry guns and got podded by them? I was a *bit* annoyed, but not screaming fits or anything.

I usually don't react in real life, but if ever the words 'oh****oh****oh****oh****' appear in LVL4 chat, everyone knows what's going down.

Last time I got ****ed off at a loss was when I engaged a rapier with a nano'd sentinel. Intel said it was a bellicose! That was the day I remembered to delete all overview settings except for pvp.

The only time I get ****ed off about a loss was if I did something stupid to cause it, or got screwed over by the server - both instances are pretty rare, thankfully.
Rest of the time, I'm calm and relaxed about it. At the end of the day, its internet spaceships, and if my death achieved the gang's tactical goals or helped to keep a gangmate alive, then its well-worth it.

From all the ships I lost so far (which are a couple Thoraxes, a Deimos, a Curse, a Drake and 2 pods) I reacted as follows:
On 2 occassions of a Thorax lost my last words were "Charge!" (when I charged a Typhoon and on a different location a Megathron solo).
On 1 Thorax lost I said on TS: "shiiiiii***t out of cap and dying" (a Merlin killed my rail thorax because he had a nos and I didn't xD)
On the Drake I didn't react at all, good fight
On the Deimos I was merely saying in corp-chat: "should've seen that coming..." (agressed a ore-thief in a Vexor, and 2 friends warped in and bbq'ed me)
On the Curse: my mind kinda froze for a minute because I agressed a Crow (who was scramming me) and his friends slowly killed me and I was unable to do anything (sorta panic stuff).
But ah well, real cursing never happens for me, sometimes a huge "sigh" will happen though if someone screws up (either me or someone I'm flying / playing with)

I generally PvP in fairly inexpensive ships (insured T1 cruisers/battlecruisers, 'ceptors, assault ships) so ship losses for me aren't horrible.
The only time I ever got really angry over losing a ship in combat was a Megathron that I lost in an Empire War a few months back. We sent a bait Abbadon to the gate, the targets were engaging him, and our gang jumped in to lay the hurt on our targets. I lock up primary, secondary, and our bait ship to throw a remote rep his way. Next thing I know, I'm getting CONCORDed.
Apparently I warp scrambled our bait ship (who was in my alliance but not my corp) and threw a remote rep on my secondary (who I was supposed to be scrambling). DOH!
Although this wasn't a combat loss, I also lost a Rokh once to a contract scam. Totally my fault, taught me a good lesson, and certainly qualifies as a PvP loss.
