throw a wobbly

To become very angry, or throw a tantrum. British slang.

That door ding will pop right out - no need to throw a wobbly. She threw a wobbly when she couldn't have her way.

Throw a wobbler

Get really angry. Have a tantrum.

Sensitive guy: All I did was point out the roll of fat hanging over the waistband of her new jeans and did she throw a wobbler or what?! What's that all about? I was only being objective. I hope my jaw heals soon, I hate eating this babyfood.
