Honked off is an American slang expression for being annoyed, irritated, or genuinely ticked off about something.
Honked off is an American slang expression for being annoyed, irritated, or genuinely ticked off about something. It sits in the middle of the frustration scale — not quite furious, but definitely past mildly bothered. It's the kind of phrase your dad might use when the cable goes out during the game or someone cuts him off in traffic. Inoffensive enough for family dinner but expressive enough that everyone knows you mean business.
She was absolutely honked off when they cancelled her flight without so much as a text notification.
