This is so wrong. "Asshole" is not the answer, and noone really offers counter-arguments.
JoseAlejandro Feb 13, 2008:
Sure, you can be both, but the words mean different things.
Margaret Schroeder Feb 13, 2008:
Interesting distinction, JoseAlejandro. I confess I've never given much thought to the difference between an asshole and a shithead. I guess a person can be one and not the other, or both.
JoseAlejandro Feb 13, 2008:
If there is such a t-shirt, then the makers of it decided to be more brazen when trying to re-create the popular American t-shirt slogan: "I'm with stupid". It means the same, but the register is obviously more profane, but it certainly is NOT asshole.
Margaret Schroeder Feb 12, 2008:
Offensiveness fixed.
Cristina Heraud-van Tol Feb 12, 2008:
Your question should be under the "Offensive Question" category.

Thanks William!
agree Henry Hinds : Right on!

Thanks Henry!
disagree JoseAlejandro : An "asshole" is a "culero". Please see my suggestion below. I work in court, so I deal with assholes and pendejos all day, and this is what I've been trained to do. Did you just open up your glossary of "bad words" and wrote down what you saw?

I'm with shithead...

Pendejo is NOT asshole, because one can be an idiot without malice...and, an asshole can be someone who is smart.

Other options for "pendejo": fuckhead, dumb fuck...
