Morphology

get + assmad

This is slang built on the transparent verb 'get' plus a nonstandard intensifying form 'assmad' which clearly contains 'mad' (angry) with a vulgar intensifier 'ass'. A learner who knows 'get' and the adjective 'mad' (and is familiar with crude intensifiers) can plausibly infer the meaning, but the nonce/colloquial formation and vulgar element make it nonstandard and potentially unfamiliar, so the inference is only partial.

Etymology

Get assmad may come from adding ass to mad as a rude way to make 'very angry' stronger. It makes you picture someone suddenly getting loud and upset, so it means 'become excessively angry or upset'.
