Clinchpoop
You may want to use last week's word, breedbate in the same sentence as clinchpoop :-D
Originating in the mid-16th century, calling someone a clinchpoop meant that they were an uncouth person of poor breeding or repute; a jerk, basically!
The Oxford English Dictionary suggests clinchpoop may be derived from "clinchers"--boatyard workers who fastened bolts on ships.
