I've found that setting it aside somewhere where it can watch you work on other, better-behaved projects for a few days can bring about quite the positive change in attitude and behavior. But sometimes, more extreme measures are called for, like stuffing it in the back of the WIP drawer and leaving it there for a day/week/month or three to ponder its fate. Frogging can also be used as a pretty effective threat, although you have to be careful not to employ it when you don't mean it.
