Do you know how Germans call someone who is done for? Someone who can't poop anymore!

I can't figure out the back translation. Please repeat that term in German^^

Er oder sie hat ausgeschissen.

Literally means "has pooped" but has different subtexts depending on the situation, including a sense of finality.

Ja, stimmt, ausgeschissen macht Sinn. Bin ich nicht drauf gekommen^^

Yeah, true, ausgeschissen works. Just didn't get it.

But it's kinda a double-meaning preposition. Aus- can mean out (as in move shit out of your body) but also to do something to it's end. E.g. ausgeschalten, where it means to switch off.

I don't get it! Maybe try it in German again.
