annoyed
Why in heaven's name do we have to use stupid non-adverbal or adjectival words when speaking?
People say they are pissed when someone does something. What does pissed really mean. It is supposed to imply that one is annoyed or bothered. It doesn'thave a literal meaning. But I wonder how in years to come when English changes yet again, what researchers will make of our using such words.
