I didn't actually realise about the bad-tempered-ness of it before (i have been accused of being curmudgeonly by several people, and tend to not take it as an insult) - I kind of think of curmudgeons as being amusingly grumpy folks rather than crotchety old bastards. Which is why I'm not going to nominate Mr Lasagne anymore.

My idea of a curmudgeon isn't as nasty as dictionary.com's. I think of it as more harmless grinch than mean-spirited bigot. Like when my dad tuts at the television, mutters something grumpily and trudges upstairs at half past ten.

My idea of 'curmudgeonly' is pretty much the same as dictionary.com's, though the 'old' bit seems a bit ageist and unnecessary. It's one of those words that people seem to have odd ideas about. I forget what Nickie thought it meant but it was something quite odd. I think she was confused by Lee & Herring.

Basically, it = hating fun.

I thought strongo was the curmudgeon-in-chief of ILX.

― N. (nickdastoor), Sunday, 25 April 2004 18:51 (twenty years ago) link

Webster's Unabridged Dictionary defines curmudgeon as 'a bad-tempered, difficult, cantankerous person' -- so even though the term is usually applied to old men doesn't mean it has to be.

i always think of curmudgeon as being 'bad-tempered, difficult, cantankerous etc', but in a cuddly sort of way. when i hear 'curmudgeon' i sort of think it implies a fondness for the grump in question. as for the question, uh, there have been some good suggestions above.

That's three people now who haven't agreed with the dictionary definition of "curmudgeon". Is it the fault of sitcom scriptwriters? I think of Richard Briers in Ever Decreasing Circles, Victor Meldrew, Alf Garnett, Steptoe etc whenever I hear the word "curmudgeon" and the humour seems to go hand in hand with the grumpiness.

It is an unfortunate coincidence that curmudgeon rhymes with gudgeon, leading the naive to associate 'a species of small fish' and its inherent harmlessness, with 'a misanthrope instructed by long experience' -- and don't even ask me about the misconstructions that attend the word 'sourpuss'. They are many and egregious.

Your true curmudgeon has quaffed deeply from the bitter springs of life and has adapted himself accordingly, unlike all you callow, shallow, doe-eyed naifs who think it will only get better if you try harder, or some such milk-fed, weak-kneed Sunday-schoolism. Fie on you!

The most curmudgeonly man on ILX is a namby-pamby goody two-shoes compared to the correct yardstick. Why, you wet-behind-the-ears greensick fools couldn't put together a complete curmudgeon, even if you pooled parts into a composite and then lied on its resume.

But Momus you will as a man of science and truth you will recognize that there is much objective truth that simply doesn't break down into simple rational principles accessible to limited human logic. With time you will become aware of greater realities, and the access to them faith provides. Yes you will look for authority to guide you back to a moral life- God.

But I digress, Ive gotta be in the running surely? The smiley will seal it.

an alternative definition of cormorant is "A greedy, rapacious person" and an alternative definition of pigeon is "One who is easily swindled; a dupe."
