(US, colloquial, derogatory, vulgar) Characteristic of a dick (a contemptible person); offensively unpleasant and vexatious.
AZG has fallen in my eyes into the same category as that of Clayton Cramer, Artemus Ward, and the various passing idiots. i will not answer his posts unless he insults me personally, as i think if we all ignore him he will go away. even if we DON'T all ignore him, i don't want to be responsible for keeping him around... (although it is sexist of me to think AZG is a him. some women are that dickish and stupid after all...)
