get up on the wrong(right) side of the bed 

原文解釋: to feel slightly angry or annoyed for no particular reason

              or be in a grouchy, irritable state

中文解釋: 形容一個人莫名其妙行為舉止令人無法接受、不想跟人講話、一臉臭酸、心情不好, 

               類似中文的「起床氣」。反之如果心情好則用get up on the right side of the bed 。

               此用法亦可用於形容一個人今日不同往常,已下兩句也與此片語帶有一樣意思

               get out of bed on the wrong side

               wake up on the wrong side of the bed
