I'm interested in words that have changed over the years to mean the opposite of the original meaning. A very common example is the word >bad<. Which can now mean really good.

I've also found that the word >fussy< was used differently in the forties. When they said "I'm not fussy about oatmeal" (found in Who Has Seen the Wind - W.O. Mitchell) it meant the person did not like oatmeal. If I said the same thing today it would mean I don't mind oatmeal.

Any others?
