| Apr 24, 2018 at 16:07 | comment | added | Lambie | The image is of an animal with bristles, like a porcupine or certain pigs who hair-like structures are raised when bothered. It is not necessarily anger, it can be annoyance or irritation or feeling indignant. Bristle is usually followed by at but it is not a phrasal verb per se. It just takes the preposition at. | |
