Exacerbate

Exacerbate (verb):

1)   to aggravate or increase the severity of something.
2)   to exasperate or irritate

in plain English.........to make worse!

Sentence: My irritation was exacerbated by the fact that I couldn't go outside and rake leaves because it was raining...okay-- maybe it's not the greatest sentence in the word, but at least it's my own. It is raining here and the leaves are too icky and too heavy to move. Well, at least it's not snowing!

Do you think you can come up with a better sentence?
