¿Por qué carajo me rompés las bolas?

El mono. Manías.
Falta un poco de contexto.
¿Por qué coño me molestas con tus manías? en caso de ser drogadicto sería el mono, al menos en España.
Esta es la definición del Oxford: jones |dʒəʊnz| informal noun a fixation on or compulsive desire for someone or something, typically a drug; an addiction : a two-year amphetamine jones.
Espero que te sea de ayuda.

De nada, pa'eso estamos ;-) Por eso me gusta participar en KudoZ. De hecho, hace poco estaba leyendo un cuento en inglés en el que un personaje se llamaba Spike Jones y mencionaban algo al respecto de este tema, y me quedó "rondando". Saludos :-)
