I was working in a high school classroom a couple of years back when one of the boys who's name was Josh was kidding around and I asked him "are you josh'n me?" He gave me the funniest look, I had him go look it up in the dictionary, he couldn't believe josh was in there.

How about "fratchy"....Great, Great, Grandma used to use this one, mostly southern in origin...it means irritated, annoyed, or just generally rankled about something.
