I wonder if crotchety comes from "crochet",
I find that as I get older (and older) my b.s. detector is more sensitive and I am less shy about calling someone out on it. I will send back to the kitchen any restaurant food that is not good, return rancid olive oil to the store, just get generally hard to deal with. We only have so much time on this planet and it should be good whenever possible.
I believe that curmudgeons are generally men and old women get 'crotchety'. A man can also be an "Old Coot"., a woman is a "biddy".

Schley Cox sent this message to all members of Ye Olde Farts' Club: "Curmudgeon" was left out of the terms associated with Ye Olde Farts. Despite the word's murkey history (Google) it sounds so Irish it is almost green. I vote we appropriate it before someone else gets greedy about it. It would be the curmudgeonly thing to do." Dictionary.com says that the source is unknown. And I don't know that the irish could claim a corner on ther curmudgeon market, but I agree it fits. Plus, it isn't like "olde fart" is a particularly irish term. So, since i wrote the description, I will add "curmudgeon." And if anyone doesn't like it, too bad.... Schley, how is that for curmudgeonly?

The following link is an URGENT PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!!! All guys are urged to view this important public service video! Especially at this time of year, it bears an important warning.

You ladies are welcome to view it as well and forward the link to all the guys you care about. This is an important message and could, perhaps, prevent a tragic waste to some guy that you love.

One evening, a family brings their frail, elderly father to a nursing home and leaves him, hoping he will be well cared for. The next morning, the nurses bathe him, feed him a tasty breakfast, and set him in a chair at a window overlooking the lawns and gardens.

He seems okay but after a while he slowly starts to lean over sideways in his chair. Two attentive nurses immediately rush up to catch him and straighten him up.

Again, he seems okay but after a while he starts to tilt to the other side. The nurses rush back and once more bring him back upright. This goes on all morning.

Later, the family arrives to see how the old man is adjusting to his new home. “So Pa, how is it here? Are they treating you all right?” they ask.

“It's pretty nice,” he replies. “Except they won't let you fart.”

Two elderly ladies were in a movie theater - one whispered to the other, "My butt is falling asleep!"
The other replied, "I know - I heard it snore 3 times already!"
