Word of the day: tsuris

The word of the day is tsuris:
  1. trouble; woe.
(http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/tsuris)


"Really, why go through the trouble of leaving home, battling T.S.A. lines, enduring delayed flights, and all the other travel tsuris when you can just stay where all the tourists want to be anyway, in N.Y.C.?"
