A "poop butt" and a "shit ass" have completely different meanings, despite the similarity of the words that make them up. (sh.itjust.works)

I didn't know what either of those mean.

shit-ass is bad. E.g. I have a shitass lawnmower so it takes a long time.

And poop butt is good? This poop-butt device mows the lawn in seconds. ???

[–] thelasttoot@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Poop butts aren't good, but they're not bad either. They're just something you have to deal with when you have pets or a baby.

And shit-ass is what you have to deal with when babies become teenagers?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

Lmao, no actually. I'm not sure I've ever hesrd someone say that.

[–] Today@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Huh. I would say my mower is shitty or a pain in the ass, but it would never occur to me to say shitass. Maybe it's regional?

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Maybe. Or, maybe you're just shit ass at keeping up with what people say.

[–] Today@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Thats probably it. I've been pretty busy dealing with a poop butt.

Lol my inner dialoge can't read "shit-ass" in any other voice than Sweet Dee from Always Sunny in Philadelphia

And I'm guessing a “poop butt” is to be taken literally.

"poop butt" is my elderly house cat when she needs a little help cleaning up after using the sand box.

"shit ass" describes the character of my state's Lieutenant Governor.

Poop butt can't help themselves, shit ass can but chooses not to

[–] degen@midwest.social 4 points 3 weeks ago

We say poo butt... What an odd thing to have in common with a stranger on the internet lmao
