Word
I saw this word in a news article about the Dubai port situation, and I just thought it sounded way too whimsical to mean what it actually means.
kerfuffle-noun disorder, commotion
Doesn't it sound like it should be a frilly skirt worn over puffy pantaloons, or some sort of crested bird indigenous to the Mississippi River Delta? Maybe it's just me.

I haven't been able to get to your blog the last couple of days. I've barely been able to manage without my daily Jen's Horde fix.
Please see to it that it doesn't happen again.
I can't handle he kerfuffle.

I actually think it sounds like what it means...but then again, I'm from the south, where nothing really makes any sense. I like it! Jen's word of the day!
Kerfluffle. Isn't that the ruffly thing you can buy for around the bed to hide that you have an underneath?
