Having a full-blown adult tantrum over something minor. A wobbly is not just anger — it’s dramatic, theatrical chaos, ideally with flailing arms.

“He threw a wobbly because his toast was ‘too toasty’.”

Means someone’s gone completely off-script — angry, irrational, or behaving like a soap opera villain. Usually used when someone reacts dramatically to something minor, like running out of milk.

“She lost the plot when she saw the state of the kitchen.”

Completely and utterly shocked, as if someone slapped you in the mouth (‘gob’) with pure surprise. British people adore this word because it allows them to feel dramatic without raising their voice.

“I was gobsmacked when the bus actually arrived on time.”

Another glorious British level of drunk — beyond tipsy, beyond merry, into full ‘phone has been lost, dignity has evaporated’ territory. If you’re plastered, someone will film you singing badly.

“We got plastered at the pub quiz and still came last.”

A soft, gentle insult meaning stupid but in a ‘bless your heart’ British way. Someone daft isn’t harmful, just… missing a few software updates. Ideal for friends who lock their keys inside the car while the engine’s running.

“Don’t be daft, of course the train’s late.”
