Ah. I think the closest English-language equivalent to that expression would be "the straw that broke the camel's back." It means roughy the same thing. You're already upset or feeling on edge, so any little thing can cause you to explode into a fit of rage or tears or whatever. The little thing that causes that is "the straw that broke the camel's back."
