Is there a functional distinction between "asshole" and "dickhead" that I've never been familiar with despite being a native English speaker?

[–] Evil_incarnate@lemm.ee 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thinking about it, I feel that a dickhead does dickhead things more randomly, but an asshole does asshole things for a reason, on purpose.

Like a dickhead may fuck things up for everyone, whereas asshole fucks up things for other people.

Just my thoughts.

I feel similarly. For someone being a dickhead, they're being rude because they don't care about you.
For an asshole, they're being rude because they want to be mean.

Assholes are shitty people, and dicks fuck other people.

But sometimes, dicks fuck assholes too! (insert dick/asshole/pussy monologue from Team America)
