It's like "alcoholic" except applied to the word "asshole". In context, you might say, "Damn, that was a pretty assholic thing to do."

Now that was a clever one, I like it, infact I may even use that in future.
 
I didn't make it up... heard it in a yahoo chatroom (prof chat)
fvcktard - (with a "u")

asstard

definitions are obvious. I use them in conversations describing idiot customers all the time.

Insoluvious. It means unable to be submerged. As far as I know, nothing actually meets the definition which is the only thing keeping it from being widely adopted.
What about potassium.

There was a band back in the 90's that did a song called "assoholic."

It was a pretty good band, IIRC.

Edit: It was 54-40. Any Canadian old enough to follow music in the grunge era would know the song. Got pretty heavy play up here.

Isn't that a double negative which would mean that it is someone showing regard?
"disirregardlessly" doesn't describe somebody showing no regard. That would be "apathetic", which is actually a true adjective (and noun).

Since top-heavy is already a word, why do we need tumpular?
