The sainted Mrs_O (praise be to Marigold) used the lovely word "disgruntled" a while ago ... which made me think (noise of cogs whirring) ...

You can be disgruntled ... but not gruntled

You can be disgusted ... but not gusted

and is 'tressed' the opposite of distressed?

I'm sure there are many more :)
