Oh, I love that word! I learned in my Vocab class (yes, I'm such a dork I took a class on vocabularly for English and enjoyed it. But that might have been because my teacher had adult ADD and drank too much coffee.).

Curmudgeon is a cool word. I get it mixed up with bludgeon, though.

[Daae]

...I need more sleep. And less caffine.
