OT: cantankerous - bad-tempered, argumentative, and uncooperative thanks for the vocabulary expansion!

  I (and probably the person you replied to) take all these words for granted. It didn't occur to me someone hadn't heard of them. Check out the thesaurus entry for cantankerous for some more useful, related, and probably less common than I think terms: https://www.thesaurus.com/browse/cantankerous https://www.thesaurus.com/browse/cantankerous

    Thanks! And I don't wish people to stop using less common words - I do enjoy an expanded vocabulary, just for the record. The comment was just to save others a couple of clicks :).

  Must admit that the OT (OP?) needed some help from a spell checker to write it though ;) To add that the word generally springs to my mind everything you said, plus elderly.
