Sorry, I was thinking \"alguièn un poco menos vehemente\". Anyway, it\'s the same translation of \"vehemenite: A little more furious, a little more vindictive (somebody trying even harder to bite their heads off)

The word "vehement" often accompanies nouns such as "complaint" "comment" and "opinion". It appears over 10,000 times in the Web, and it might go well with your text here.
