An expression of impotent manlet rage. The hissy fit occurs when a petite and effeminate manlet is rightfully rejected by a disgusted women for the billionth time or after the microscopic manlet boy is treed by a chihuahua or mauled by a kitten. Silly and shameful as it certainly is, the hissy fit is the only "weapon" in the stunted manlet's derisory arsenal because he is the same height as a child and nobody will ever take a fuming midget like him seriously.
Lol, why is that sissy manlet throwing a hissy fit over there? I think the compensating, little manlet boy got a spanking from his mother for stealing her high heels again. Hahahahaha! Manlets, when will they learn?
