1. touchy
2. crabby
3. cranky
4. grumpy
5. crotchety
6. grouchy
7. snippy
8. testy
9. disagreeable
10. surly
11. bearish
12. ornery
13. cantankerous
14. bilious

and finally,

15. hostile.

I hope this will come in handy when reading future posts from JR.
you skipped over angry, livid, sour, dour, painful, pissy, petulant, puerile, petty and just plain prickly
