When a grown man throws the adult equivalent of a temper tantrum when they either are not getting their way, people do not agree with them, or to avoid attention to wrongs they have done/flaws etc.
"Karl" threw a mantrum when his wife reminded him to take out the garbage a second time to redirect the focus off what he failed to do. While he did not fall to the floor in a full blown fit, his mantrum consisted of pointing out something negative about his wife to redirect attention off of himself.
