bumhole

Bumhole does double duty in British slang: literally it refers to the anus, but more entertainingly it gets hurled as an insult at someone who's being annoying, stupid, or just generally a pain.

Bumhole does double duty in British slang: literally it refers to the anus, but more entertainingly it gets hurled as an insult at someone who's being annoying, stupid, or just generally a pain. It's on the milder end of the UK insult spectrum — kids use it, parents occasionally mutter it, and it shows up in enough British sitcoms that it barely raises an eyebrow. The derogatory use is more about expressing exasperation than genuine malice.

Don't be such a bumhole about it — just let him borrow your charger for five minutes.
