    I'm not sure what cantakerous means but I like the sound of that word. Put me down for cantakerous.

      I don't think you are old enough. Its usually considered a trait of old men. Women have a different connotation.
      disagreeable to deal with; contentious; peevish. tempered and quarrelsome; disagreeable. Someone that acts stubbornly obstructive and is unwilling to cooperate
