I think I've told you this story before.

Creo que te he contado esta historia antes.

When I was a kid, sometimes I would hide behind a tree,

Cuando era niño, a veces me escondía detrás de un árbol,

and when my sister would walk by, I would jump out,

y cuando mi hermana pasaba, saltaba

and I would say, "Boo!" to scare her,

y decía: "¡Buu!" para asustarla,

and then she would flip out.

y luego ella enloquecería.

She would get really, really angry with me

Se enfadaba mucho, mucho conmigo

because I had scared her.

porque la había asustado.

So to flip out means to get angry.

Entonces flip out significa enfadarse.

Also, when I was a kid, whenever I went to school,

Además, cuando era niño, cada vez que iba a la escuela

I wouldn't wear a winter hat or winter gloves,

, no usaba un gorro de invierno o guantes de invierno,

and then my mom would flip out on me

y luego mi mamá se enfadaba conmigo

because she knew that I would be cold at school,

porque sabía que tendría frío en la escuela,

but as a kid, I just didn't like wearing gloves,

pero cuando era niño , Simplemente no me gustaba usar guantes,

and I didn't like wearing a winter hat, kind of like now,

y no me gustaba usar un gorro de invierno, como ahora,

and so my mom would flip out on me

y entonces mi mamá se enfadaba conmigo

because she knew that it was a good idea to wear it.

porque sabía que era una buena idea usarlo.

So she would get a little bit angry.

Entonces ella se enojaría un poco.

We have another phrase that's similar to this,

Tenemos otra frase que es similar a esta,

and it's to flip your lid.

When you flip your lid, it means the same thing.

Cuando volteas la tapa , significa lo mismo.

It means to get angry.

So you can say that when you do something to annoy someone,

Así que puedes decir que cuando haces algo para molestar a alguien,

eventually, they might flip their lid.

eventualmente, pueden volverse locos.

They might get really, really angry with you

Es posible que se enojen mucho, mucho contigo

for doing something that annoys them,

por hacer algo que les molesta,

So, hopefully you aren't someone

Entonces, con suerte, no eres alguien

who very often needs to flip out,

que necesita enloquecer muy a menudo,

and you aren't someone who tends to flip your lid.

y no eres alguien que tiende a volverse loco.
