Surely if it's a nautical term it would be uncaulked.... ? (pedant, pedant...)

thrown a hissy fit,

fit to be tied,

gone quiet,

spitting bricks (spitting feathers was always for someone who was thirsty)

doing the finger thing (a friend has a VERY indicative finger point - she points it at the object that's annoying her, wags it up and down and the other hand on the hip..... when that happens, people run before she starts!)

Going Gavin (from a colleague who is well known for throwing tantrums at work).. .could be any name but Gavin is a nice onomatopeic word.
