An act of road rage provoked by a motorist driving slowly while hypermiling (driving in a manner that attempts to use fuel sparingly)
When the driver of car #1 was letting the car coast up a hill way below the speed limit, the driver of car #2 was so upset that he passed and blocked his path. This was considered a hypermiling tantrum.

When a grown man overhears something mean said about him, and proceeds to go on a poorly-articulated, juvenile rant on Twitter at 3am.
"Did you see that SNL said something mean about Emperor TinyHands McThinskin again?"
"I figured, there was another late-night Trumper Tantrum making the country look stupid again."

A Twitter tantrum occurs when a Twitter user is at odds with one or more of his/her fellow Twitterers. This is typically characterized by a confrontational exchange of "tweets" during which threats are made to unfollow (block), etc.
This is not atypical behavior considering the often self-absorbed and self-serving personality traits of the participants and their insatiable need for attention and validation.

Being the self-absorbed prima donna she always has been, Chloe threw a full-on Twitter tantrum last night and unfollowed several of her most loyal followers just because they dared to challenge her on some her extremist political views.

Temperature tantrum: When you get cranky and pissy because it's so uncomfortably hot. The temperature-mood based equivalent of being hangry.
It's 75 degrees in here. Why are you wearing a robe and sweatshirt? How are you not hot? The fan is NOT putting a chill in the air. You better put the AC on to 66 before I throw a temperature tantrum.
