bit·ter ( P ) Pronunciation Key (btr)
adj. bit·ter·er, bit·ter·est
Having or being a taste that is sharp, acrid, and unpleasant.
Causing a sharply unpleasant, painful, or stinging sensation; harsh: enveloped in bitter cold; a bitter wind.
Difficult or distasteful to accept, admit, or bear: the bitter truth; bitter sorrow.
Proceeding from or exhibiting strong animosity: a bitter struggle; bitter foes.
Resulting from or expressive of severe grief, anguish, or disappointment: cried bitter tears.
Marked by resentment or cynicism: “He was already a bitter elderly man with a gray face” (John Dos Passos).I would not consider saying you seem bitter any worse than saying you seem depressed or you seem angry. It was a statement of my perception of what this poster wrote. However I look forward as always to your civility decision. Brio
> I have to post this here. I am offended by this comment (You seem very bitter) and have read other folks being pbc'd for such things. I found this very much jumping to conclusions and not using the old "I" statement. Would you please take a peek?
