How it's used
Describes someone who acts like a local tyrant or a troublemaker, often implying a sense of arrogance or physical intimidation. It is specifically used for boys or young men who behave aggressively or lack discipline. The term carries a slightly old-fashioned, colorful tone that feels more descriptive than simply calling someone a bully.

Do not use this to describe a literal bull or a farmer, as the term is strictly metaphorical for human behavior. It is not a formal term and should be avoided in professional or polite settings.
