Depends on what authorities one defers to. I first heard the term on a
"West Wing" episode.
Kerfluffle sounds so kawaii, like there are fluffy pink kittens involved
or something.

BTW, just so FRIAMers don't embarrass themselves elsewhere, its

everywhere I look, KerfLuffle is a legitimate alternative spelling,
however I *do* defer that kerfuffle is closer to the ?original? scots
curfuffle...
My ear and palate much prefer "kerfluffle" however
