Irritate (6)

'irritate' is the definition.
(I know that ruffle is a more specific form of the action irritate)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ruffle that I've seen before include "Agitate" , "Disturb the evenness of feelings or feathers" , "Ornamental frill; make disarranged" , "Disturb the calm or smoothness of - feathers?" , "Upset the composure of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, the Evening Standard, the USA Today, The Telegraph, The Guardian, the Penny Press, the Universal and the King Feature Syndicate.
