I'm interested to know... I hear a lot of "pissed off with" but I really don't like the word piss for some reason.
So what are your go to alternative phrases that describe your anger, annoyance or vexation with something?

I used to love it when Stan from dinnerladies used to say things had 'got my dander up'

Im tend to go with 'fucked off'

Frustrated/disappointed/challenged by are my polite work ones, but normally I’m a fucked off kind of woman.

Browned off
S/he really gets up my nose

At your wits' end
They get your goat
You have an axe to grind with them
Teed off
Peeved
Irked
Miffed (or Royally Miffed if you're really angry 😁)
A great, and very underused word is 'dischuffed'
