nagnanimous

When a person who normally nags a lot chooses a rare moment not to nag, it can be said that they are being nagnanimous.

Debbie was expecting her mum to moan at the crisps she had dropped on the floor but her mum was in a nagnanimous mood and said nothing.

red exhaust situation

The idiosyncratic desire of an owner of an expensive yacht or motorboat who deems a certain, although often trivial, point to be very important.

A 'red exhaust situation' means that it matters to the owner even if you might think it pointless or ridiculous.

The Riva Aquarama, the most iconic speedboat ever made has red painted exhaust outlets but the paint gets easily blown off due to the chromed surface. The owner of a Riva Aquarama will often insist that the exhausts are red. Hence a 'red exhaust situation'
