English term or phrase: Hope you choke!
Greetings

When, for whatever reason, you are angry at the fact that somebody is laughing, in English you say, “Hope you choke (i.e. on your laughter)!”

The reason you are angry will often be that the other person is laughing at you, but other reasons are possible too.

Please, what do you say in your language?

Best wishes, and many thanks,

Simon
