Kerfuffle

A “kerfuffle” (ker-FUH-ful) is a disorderly outburst or commotion.

Example (as used by Don Hauptman today): “Last year, a kerfuffle erupted over Sen. Joseph Biden’s presumably well-intentioned characterization of Sen. Barack Obama, against whom he was then competing for the Democratic presidential nomination.”
