    I've managed it before, but I'm not aware of an actual term for it - though there's probably some compound word in German. Something like Bewohnerfünfslotsforumbelegt

      That's a relief.

      I was worried it might have been 'loser' or some such.
      My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

        I caught up with a trio of chavettes as I was wending my way home tonight. They'd been in the FMB bar, and were now straggling over about twenty yards of pavement.

        They were all shouting inane garbage back and forth, fit to wake the dead. I was almost catching up with them when two young chaps (black) came out of a side road. As they passed the chavettes, one of them told them to keep the noise down as people were sleeping, and got a load of abuse in return (though at least it wasn't racist).

        As I was about to overtake the leading one, she lurched across the pavement, having espied two chaps walking in the opposite direction on the other side of the road.

        "Hey," she bellowed, "I wanna kick your fμcking teeth in!"

        They ignored her and carried on their way, which inspired her to hoot "Come on then! Fμcking say it!"

        What she wanted them to say was not made clear. I'm guessing that a critique of Coleridge's use of the Lunar Goddess myth in The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, or a brief analysis of Wittgensteins private language argument, would not appear prominently on the list of possibilities

        Having failed to evoke a response from them, she then realised that I had gone past on the inside and started shouting at my back: "Hey, you! Fμcking..." - but I couldn't decipher the rest; her enunciation left a lot to be desired.

        I'm sure her parents are very proud of her

                      Morning all



                      Just discovered my work password has expired.

                      Deep joy.

                      It's never let me reset it remotely so I suppose I'll have to wend my weary way in & do it on site...

                      FEck.
