"Gnarly" comes from "gnarled," which, according to Webster's Third, means
"warped or twisted with or as if with gnarls." While "gnarly" may be used
in popular speech to mean both "disgusting" and "cool" (I think), there is
certainly a standard spelling for it.

Thanks Jenny,
With the new usage, I had forgotten the old!
