In a cussed manner; stubbornly, irritatingly, or with evident annoyance or spite.

Etymology

From cussed plus the adverbial suffix -ly. Formed as an adverb to describe how something is done in a stubborn or annoying way.

Kelly Says

Using 'cussedly' makes 'stubbornly' sound angrier—it suggests someone is being difficult not just by accident but with actual spite, like they're cursing as they do it!
