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 ...
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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.
