Obstreperous

Obstreperous: (Adj.) Noisy, wild, out of control. Unruly, clamorous, resisting restraint.

Ex. "If your data is obstreperous, DataJoe will tame the wild beast!"

How I remember it: "strep" throat is hard to control, an unruly sickness. "Strep" ... "Ob-STREP-erous..." (wish I had a better memory device ... any suggestions?)
