Are these prepositions all OK with th same meaning?

1. We had cod/codfish [for, at] dinner tonight.
2. I am still angry over/about/on/with it.
3. I am still angry over/about/on/with him.

Thanks.

1. We had cod/codfish [for, at] dinner tonight. [OK. "For" is more common. You usually say use "for dinner" to say what the main dish was, or at least to denote an important part. You would probably say you had something "at dinner" if it was a minor part of the meal.]
2. I am still angry over/about/<strike>on</strike>/<strike>with</strike> it. [With "angry over" and "angry about", the object "it" would refer to a situation. "Angry on" isn't natural. You are usually angry "with" a person, not a thing.]
3. I am still angry <strike>over</strike>/<strike>about</strike>/<strike>on</strike>/with him. [There might be a context where "angry over" or "angry about" would have a person as an object, but I can't think of an example where it would be really natural. You might say "angry about someone" when you mean you are angry about what that person did or something that happened to that person.]
