Smatchet
Definition: a contemptible unmannerly person.
English is a language that contains an embarrassment of riches when one wants to say something mean about someone else. If you need to refer to a contemptible person you may choose from blighter, cockloche, dandiprat, dirtbag, dogbolt, shagrag, stinkard ... you get the picture.
So why do we need smatchet? Well, because there are a lot of contemptible people out there.
