Ya your correct dude, We in Chicago call someone a 'Waste-Man' if he tends to annoy a person, in other words we blend it in from all the swearing so others don't understand and we don't get in trouble...
Not saying i say it though...
Waste-Man can mean aload bull of rude words put in one indeed

Im not sure where you live and people tend to mean it that but i know for definate down my end in Chicago they say 'Waste-Man' to a person who annoys a person or maybe not but it's more put in one all the swears. It's a better outstanding of the word rather swearing... Many people down here say it often to a person who gets something wrong is quiet...
People say waste-man to a person who chats alot
Tooo much it means all depends how the person said it, meaning what the convo was all about then we will understand why the person called another person a 'Waste-Man' init

Wasteman would be defined as one who is a waste of space. One who does not take the life of which he lives seriously and to put it in plain terms, one who has either wasted his time or is currently during said period, wasting time.

exactly. Don't use it myself personally, but everyone down here says crotching that when they here cotchin, it sounds odd to them.

LOL, this threads got me cracking up! "waste" and "waste-man" u can use 4 loads of things. I dunno really, but i use it for when things are weird, or gay - even gay has come to mean more than the homo context. As in "ma computers being gay" - not that it has sodomistic characteristics, its just being slow/crashing etc. Hard to describe!

Like the UK slang is way different to USA. Most of the words we say like for example, Foshizzle, Homie, Touch, ya, yard, ... the list can go forever. Ma point is UK slang is not very slang and hardly makes sense but whereas ours is very neat, but that does also mean where abouts in USA your from because for example Miami and Chicago slang is abit different :rolleyes: lol
