frac·tious
Pronunciation: 'frak-shus
Function: adjective
Etymology: fraction (discord) + -ous
1 : tending to be troublesome : UNRULY
2 : QUARRELSOME, IRRITABLE

But I like the version I keep at my desk at work:

fractious (adjective)
Not submitting to discipline or control : disorderly, indocile, intractable, lawless, obstinate, obstreperious, recalicitrant, refractory, uncontrollable, undisciplined, ungovernable, unmanageable, unruly, untoward wild.

Well that about sums it up! Welcome to my world!
