Wordfuse (Itchin' Edition)

rant + antsy = rantsy (adjective): anxious, apprehensive, or jittery to a degree that one can barely repress the desire to criticize, disparage or down-right slam someone who so needs it (aka bite one's tongue while the asshole at the table blathers on ad nauseum).

    Quite applicable. I mostly feel rantsy at the airport, going through security and while boarding.

    Political debates make me rantsy. That's why I quit watching them.

    Rantsy is perfect. I'm off to a dinner tonight, with my husband. If things get rantsy I'll know it's a failed outing.
