    Feeling a bit curmudgeony, are we, today? :-)

Don't know what it means, never heard that word, not found in dictionaries. Probably alocalUS jargon or typo in your strange word.

Sorry for the typo. Dropped an "l". :-[

curmudgeonly from curmudgeon+ly

The word is attested from the late 1500s in the forms /curmudgeon/ and /curmudgen/, and during the 17th century in numerous spelling variants, including /cormogeon, cormogion, cormoggian, cormudgeon, curmudgion, curmuggion, curmudgin, curr-mudgin, curre-megient/.

Don't think the US existed in the late 1500s...
