throw a wobbler
Snit fit; nappy attack; grumple. In short, get annoyed.
Throwing a wobbler is slightly more tantrum-y than being stroppy, as I understand it. Yes, I've heard Pete's mother apply both terms to him. Oh, did I laugh and laugh ...
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I like the cranberry sauce.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Now that I know about Robin's freakish predilections, I would be sure to have mashed potatoes if I were ever to have the pleasure of having her to Thanksgiving, because I would hate for her to be sad and un-holidayed. But I would've been like the Foodie Friend and left them out, because in my mind they're at most a filler thing and not an essential thing.

I like it. I am adding it to my store of lovelies.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Last year we went to a Foodie friend's feast and the food was magnificent, but no mashed potatoes, so I was very very sad.
Was this Foodie friend a Martian? No mashed potatoes? Craxxy!
No love for cranberries around our house either. However, since my Mom has decided to do the pre-cooked order-from-Vons Thanksgiving dinner this year, we will have cranberries anyway. Not sure what we will end up doing with them.

Mashed potatoes are a Food Group.

Yeah, it's a bit more demonstrative. A strop could just be a bit of a sulk, but a wobbler would usually involve shouting.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I'm about ready to throw a wobbler, then. A 5 brazilian page document has to go out TODAY, and it's going to THE GOVERNMENT, so it has to be PERFECT, and they bloody well didn't get it to me until 1 o'clock. I have a bloody plane to catch - that I don't really want to, it symbolizing the end of everything here, but that's not the point - and I have to leave at 3:45 to do so.
Bastards.
