    It’s in the same vein as douchecanoe but rarer. Rarer than a cockwomble or fucknugget but not as rare as a wankpuffin.

      Big fan of douchecanoe. Been using it for many years.

      I once dropped ‘douchecanoe’ in a convo with my manager in reference to someone we both knew outside of the company, without thinking. She gave me one of those “hol’ up - what did you just say?” reactions. New to her, she was amused.

      You are now the second person besides myself that I’ve ever encountered using it. I have to wonder if it wasn’t used in a somewhat obscure book or movie or something that introduced it to a few of us who have been disseminating it ever since.
