Snarky

Something about how this word sounds just excites me. The combination of the 's' and 'n' make it roll off of the tongue. Unfortunately for me, the word is not used in a positive sense. Here is the definition: sharply critical; cutting; snide (Mac dictionary). Pleasant thoughts, no? And now that I think about it, snide does the same thing! Sounds great but does not invoke encouraging thoughts. Bummer!
