Post below, using it in a sentence! Try to avoid very simple sentences such as "He is obnoxious."

example: My obnoxious coworker never does all of her work.

I would say something like "I'm in an obnoxious mood when I do all my work". The use of the word obnoxious is not a mistake, the tense of the sentence just sounds a little off.

mamour, you made me laugh! :D cops who give you fines are definitely obnoxious.
