- You know why I am peeved? Someone posted a word that peeved them.
- The word had a negative prefix on it something like un or dis.
- Another poster responded "how about..." and posted the word minus
- its prefix which made it a hilarious nonsense word. Does anyone
- remember what the word was? I looked back over old articles but
- the one I wanted had already expired.

- Thanks in advance,
