My very wild guess is:
worldly, well traveled.; April 7, 2010 at 5:29 AM
C.R. Evers said...: Fun, fun! OK. I'll take a stab at it. with the start as"con" to be against, the ending "cious" usually denoting a state of being, I will guess that it means "someone who is against everything" "quarrelsome"

Am I right? I guess I could go look it up.
