(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻�┻ When, out of anger or frustration, one character flips over a table that another character is sitting at, doing something on, or eating from. When the character is frustrated with himself/herself, they might flip their own table as a sign of extreme fury. In Western uses (where it's often substituted with Desk Sweep of Rage), it's almost always a sign of a hot-tempered or violent character, and is done in anger, but as an alternative to hitting a person; while in a Boke and Tsukkomi Routine, it's more likely to be caused by frustration. Sometimes, the character is drunk and filled with rage, which is more often used in Japanese media. This may also be used in action movies as a form of diversion when fighting breaks out. In either case, the table may be covered with countless small objects which go flying everywhere when it is flipped. See also Tantrum Throwing. If the action taking place at the table is a game of some sort, Flipping the Table often accompanies a Rage Quit, or more general Screw This, I'm Outta Here. Not to be confused with Flipping the Bird, although both tropes involve angry reactions. |

Ranma ½: Ranma, trying to convince Ukyo to dump him, flips a dinner table over with a meal she cooked on it. It didn't have the right effect as everyone at the table grabbed a plate and saved the meal and he got kicked into low earth orbit. Subverted in the first episode, where instead of flipping the table over, Akane picks it up and smacks Ranma with it. |

The Defenders (2017): Returning back to his apartment after going out to beat up some looters in the midst of an artificial earthquake triggered by the Hand, Matt Murdock tries to bandage his bloodied knuckles. However, his hands are very shaky, and he eventually snaps and sweeps his medical supplies off the kitchen table. The shot is staged almost identically to when he was listening to Fisk's speech. | |

Enter the Gungeon actually has the table-flipping as a gameplay mechanic, except, unlike most examples, it's done not as a sign of anger, but as a way to provide cover from the enemy fire. However, the Table Tech Rage item invokes this by having the character get mad after flipping the table, which increases their damage. | |

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: One of the setup steps to their incoherent drunken boardgame "Chardee MacDennis" is nailing the game board down because by round 3 (hard liquor), Mac always gets frustrated and tries to Rage Quit. Mac admits that it's for the best and will forget that board is nailed down later in the game. True enough, he does try to flip the board, but is unable to do so. | |

The Orville. In the episode "A Happy Refrain", Claire uses the idiom "let's flip the tables here" to suggest a change of conversation to Isaac. Due to being Literal-Minded, he does this (though since they are in the simulator, he merely has the computer reset the table afterward). | |

In the beginning of Injustice: Gods Among Us, alternative reality Superman does this when "interrogating" The Joker, who was sitting behind the table — or at when least complaining to him about how he killed everyone and made Superman kill someone he loved. The table flies pretty far to the side, naturally, but still to a kind of restrained extent considering it's Superman we're talking about. Still, if you thought at this point he was flipping out, you'd be right. | |

An instance of this occurs in RWBY during the episode "So That's How It Is", when Salem grills her subordinates in the meeting hall over their failure to retrieve the Relic of Knowledge and destroy Haven Academy. When Hazel at first tries to justify their failure by pointing out that the citizens of Menagerie had divided their forces, then tries to take full responsibility, Salem loses her patience. She flips the massive conference table and advances on Hazel, berating Hazel for taking responsibility when they all know full well that Cinder doomed the mission to failure by prioritizing her lust for power over Salem's wishes. | |

Cho Chabudai Gaeshi (released as Anger Explosion outside Japan) is a arcade game from Taito that allow players to do this, with the goal being to slam the table to get people gathered in front of you, and to finally flip the table and let physics do the rest. No, we are not kidding. The game features a wide cast of characters to choose, changing the venue. For example: A ghost attending his own wake. Slamming the table makes the attendee think the place in haunted and investigate. The table you're flipping is actually your own open casket. It even received a sequel! | |

24: Jack Bauer uses this at times as an intimidation tactic during interrogations. The most notable instance was his interrogation of Nina Myers, in which he deliberately played up his hammy rage to appear as if he were genuinely losing control of himself and an actual threat to this terrorist’s life right then and there. It scares his CTU coworkers who are concerned he isn’t faking, but it works. | |

Robin: Stephanie flipped the end table the phone was on when it kept ringing shortly after she and her mother learned of her father's supposed death. She was already upset because they were grieving him despite his criminal past and what a poor father and husband he'd been and was set off by the disruption. | |

If you're willing to accept the Earth, or at least Sumaru City as the "table" in question, then Nyarlathotep's actions just after the final boss fight in Persona 2: Innocent Sin are basically one huge table-flip, but one he had carefully set up just in case he was beat. Yes, Nyarlathotep is such a Chessmaster that table-flipping is one of his stratagems — he doesn't care about playing, he cares about ruining the game for everyone else. | |

Referred to in two of the Slayers Non Serial Movies. In Slayers: Gorgeous, Lina and Naga are engaged in yet another duel of spells, and Lina has cast a spell that, by way of a side effect, froze the surface of a nearby pond; Naga retaliates by summoning up an earth golem and having it perform a chabudai-gaeshi with the sheet of ice — it flips through the air and almost crushes Lina. In "Slayers: Great", while engaged in a battle that parodies the Super Robot genre, Naga purposely freezes a river the two are duelling near and uses her giant golem to flip the ice sheet to knock Lina's giant golem off of her feet. | |

Flipping the Table is a running gag for Orchestral Design in the Bronies React videos. He does it at the end of all his appearances, protesting the lack of Octavia in the episodes. And then, with the reaction to the 100th episode, which does features Octavia heavily, he flips the table again, this time in joy. And once in slow motion, when he sees Octavia and Vinyl Scratch sharing a house. And then, in The Stinger, he flips a table from the roof of his house. | |

The end result of Old Man Henderson was one of these. Having gotten really fed up with a Killer Game Master, a roleplayer by the name of Waffle House Millionaire created the character of Old Man Henderson, a Munchkin Loonie whose sole purpose in life was to completely derail the campaign. Aided with the Backstory Of Doom, the sole purpose of which was to be so long and confusing that the DM wouldn't read it, Waffle House Millionaire ended up "winning at Call of Cthulhu." Cue the table flip from the killer GM after finally having gotten what was coming to him. | |

An episode of Monk involved a play where the male lead was supposed to flip over a table in anger. After he becomes the Victim of the Week, Adrian — after having memorized the entire part just from watching the rehearsal and turning out to be a good actor in his own right — ends up taking over his role. When it comes around to the table flipping scene, he can't bring himself to do that; instead he removes everything that's on it before carefully turning it on its side. | |

Kyouya flips the table on Tamaki (amoung other things) on Ouran High School Host Club when Tamaki jokes that losing claim to his father's company would give him time for more interesting things. As third in line in his family, Kyouya is disgusted Tamaki is so close to having it all and is not willing to fight for it. Tamaki counters that Kyouya is just projecting his frustrations on Tamaki and is mad that he isn't fighting for his father's company. | |

Daredevil (2015): When Madame Gao tells Wilson Fisk he will be removed if he does not reassert control over his criminal alliance, he ends up flipping his massive metal dining table in rage seconds after she leaves.

Matt flips over a table covered in playing cards when he finally gets to Detective Hoffman, who he needs to take down Fisk's whole operation. Takes on extra symbolic significance given the Playing Card Motifs of Fisk's criminal empire. |

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX has a card called "Flipping the Table." In one episode, used by Hayato's (Chumley in the dub) father who (in the Japanese version, at least) was a substantial drunkard and owns a sake company (in the dub, he just owns a hot sauce company). When played, a giant table does invariably appear and Hayato's father does overturn it fairly violently. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire. Prince Aegon Targaryen kicks over the cyvasse table when Tyrion Lannister points out a few flaws in his Rightful King Returns plan, then demands that Tryion pick up the mess. Tryion can't help being reminded of Royal Brat Joffrey, who turned out to be The Caligula once he took the throne. It's a sign that the plan to raise Aegon as Modest Royalty, so he'll empathize with the common people, might have a few flaws. | |

Touhou Project: Table-flipping has been taken to new heights with the Kaguya Table Flipping RPG. It was originally a simple flash animation on Walfas, but was turned into a game. Kaguya's Five Impossible Tasks just became six, with the goal of Rebirth requiring, by most estimates, several thousand times the age of the universe to accomplish. Strangely, through several patches and even Dividing By Zero, obsessive players have already achieved this◊. The latest version includes special moves called "Enlightenment" and "Master Slice", both of which make achieving Rebirth not only possible to do legitimately, but much quicker and easier. |

Done in Consolers, when Nintendo makes Rare turn Dinosaur Planet into Star Fox Adventures. Unlike most other examples here, it's not done out of rage, but rather as a reference to "Miyamoto upending the table" mentioned above. Done later with Taito flipping her work desk in rage after Square Enix gives her too much work - the desk breaks open the door and hits Square Enix. |

The second episode of Panda Z is made entirely of Talon, the main character, and his aged grandfather sitting down to a healthy meal of batteries (let's all use them properly). Talon tries various utensils to eat the batteries (fork, knife, screwdriver, scissors, etc.), but fails each time, gets frustrated and angrily knocks the table over. After several of these, Panjii gets up, picks up another fully set table from offscreen, sets it down where the original table was, and flips the new one over himself. | |

Team Fortress 2's The Heavy in Poker Night at the Inventory does this when he loses a large hand—he follows this up by spinning his minigun, which thankfully, has no ammo. In Team Fortress 2 proper, The Heavy has a taunt much like this, although he doesn't do it out of rage, and there are no board games on the table (instead there being some soup and other cooking objects, including a steak in a pot, which he catches with his mouth). |

Eventually, the two antagonize each other to the point where Tigh finally loses it and tosses the table, leading to Starbuck reflexively punching him in the face. She gets locked up for her troubles, but Tigh agrees with Commander Adama not to press charges because he was too drunk to remember who started the fight. | |

In Kyojin No Hoshi (Star of the Giants), an old-fashioned father would flip over the family dinner table whenever he was morally outraged, while they were eating; the dinner would be subsequently ruined. Several subsequent occurrences of Flipping the Table were direct references to this scene, which appeared in the series' closing-credits montage; after undergoing Memetic Mutation, Flipping the Table became part of the visual meme-pool of Japanese comedy in general. | |

They leave them in a cafe to 'get acquainted', and the two agents promptly try to find each other's Berserk Button. Solo wins, as shown when Kuryakin reaches this trope and storms off. | |

On one episode of Family Guy, Cleveland was living with the Griffins, and in the midst of a messy divorce. While watching tv with Stewie, he finally snaps and says "I hate Bewitched!" when it comes on, and flips the couch over. While Stewie was sitting on it. Stewie responds "Yeah, that was totally reasonable reaction..." Another possible instance is in the episode, where Stewie and Brian are playing Chess in the back of Quagmire's RV, while he is having sex while driving. When their chess pieces get knocked off due to the reckless driving, they argue when they try to put the pieces back, causing Stewie to snap and knock the pieces off the table again. |
