Would someone please Britishize this for me? I don't think the imagery is right for John.

Simon was so angry that he very inadvisably dropped his (bloody gorgeous antique [the complete and utter tosser]) rifle in a fit of temper, then began to screech and hop around like a jackrabbit in heat. John didn’t even register the report of the gun going off until after he’d begun this bizarre and fascinating behaviour.

I and others I know use the phrase 'mad as a box of frogs'...

That is a pretty good visual. My first reaction is to add - with a lid on it - dunno why - is it funnier if the frogs are bouncing around the box (off the walls) because they have no way of getting out?

I've always imagined that there's a lid on said box... ;oP

Your input on both fronts is gratefully received. Thank you!
