The term: "Hot Mess"

So sick and tired of hearing it.

New one to me but I'm in that place on the underside of the world. This definition gave me the giggles.

Usually the result of a hangover, a hot mess can be described as the diarrhea or abnormal bowel movements you have the morning after a night of heavy drinking.

I suppose it could be similar to the term 'a dogs breakfast' when used in a different context from the one above...although...

On the negative side, I prefer Dumpster Fire. Fits many situations I've seen lately...

Hot mess sounds like fun.

Suppurating pustule - now that's something you want to avoid.
