had words
To have ranted at someone so much about a word that it felt like you were arguing with a dictionary.
I had words with my sister because she used 'fribble' and I called her a 'fribblebrain'.
I had words with my neighbor because he used 'flibbertigibbet' and I called him a 'flibbertigibbet fool'.
I had words with my mom because she used 'gobbledygook' and I called her a 'gobbledygooper'.
