In modern speach "ерепениться" is more common. It means "to bristle up", "to raise its hackles" and used almost exclusively as a figure of speach, but probably can be used literally as well.
Also you may look for "ерепенить" (and any other dialect or otdated word) in Dahl's dictionary - for example, here.
But I'm not sure what's the metaphorical wisdom behind this joking phrase. :) It should be clear from the context.
Не ерепенься и не лезь в бутылку!
Какой такой контест-шмонтекст. Це ж снова наше усе - гр кровосток. Ну а про перевод weirdo beavers на ан.... все молчу.Quote:
