Today's Word "Glower"

glower \GLA-wehr\ (verb) - To stare menacingly.

"You don't have to glower like that just because I smashed the chocolate mousse onto your new white shirt"

Middle English gloren, possibly from Norwegian dialect glyra "to look askance." It is less likely a blend of glare + scour "search" (ME glaren + scuren). In the motion picture world glowering is known as "the slow burn," an expression of barely contained fury with the eyes focused on the person at fault.
