I don’t know what people are thinking when the use the word “nonplussed” to mean the opposite of “moved” or “impressed”. Maybe that those things are “plusses” and the person is not any of them.
The word “nonplussed” means “surprised”, “bewildered”, “at a loss.” It’s the opposite of “unmoved.”

Heh, I’m really glad I looked that up, because now I also know that nonplussed is almost literally Latin for, “I got nothing”.
