How it's used

This term vividly describes someone or something that is like a stubborn, lingering bowel movement that refuses to pass, hence the graphic imagery. It is used to label people who are perpetually needy, incompetent, or prone to creating endless small problems that drag on. While highly expressive, it is considered quite informal and slightly crude, so avoid using it in professional settings or with people you do not know well.

Common mistake
