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.

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).

I always use a word that exists, but my definition is new. Does that count? Well even if it doesn't count, here it is and used in a sentence:

Monosexual. The typical ATOT poster is a male, geeky monosexual unable to find any mate but himself.

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