bully, troublemaker, broiler, fire-eater, scrapper, vixen Explanation: Dictionaries suggest bully, troublemaker, broiler, fire-eater, scrapper, vixen etc., you have to decide yourself if any of these fit. "Someone likely to pick an argument" would probably be a better explanation, as there needen't be any physical aggressiveness involved. And it isn't really a slang word. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day4 hrs (2006-10-30 07:51:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Cannot think of anything much shorter. "Riiukukk" is more informal and a few letters shorter :) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day4 hrs (2006-10-30 07:53:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Kakleja" is someone who specifically tends to fight physically. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 43 days (2006-12-11 23:57:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- No, they are not slang, I am not aware of any universally understood slang words for this.
