Acrid

Acrid. Acrid! A word that is simultaneously expressive, descriptive, and powerful to say. The word is a sharp reprimand, clearly expressing shock and disdain. You can almost catch a whiff of the offending stench as you say it. It’s odd that such an elegant word as this is used to describe such an odious thing!
