Bandera de Cuba

/Sounds like 'koh-meh-MYEHR-dah'/

One of Cuba's most cutting insults — a pretentious fool who thinks they're better than they are. Comemierda describes someone whose arrogance and stupidity combine into a uniquely infuriating personality type.

Example

"Ese comemierda se cree la octava maravilla y no sabe nada."

"No le hagas caso a ese comemierda, no vale la pena. → That pretentious idiot thinks he's the greatest thing since sliced bread and knows nothing."

"Don't pay attention to that fool, it's not worth it."

Regional synonyms:

Estar bromeando, no ir en serio, estar de cachondeo. En España preguntar '¿Estás de coña?' es como decir '¿Me estás tomando el pelo?' o '¿Es en serio?'.
