Growing up in south Louisiana I used (still do)several forms of the French
verb Foutre...my parents used it and everyone else did. Also used it as an
adjective. We always thought it meant "doomed" . But I can see how it can
mean the word "f_cked" . "Fouter de monde "meant someone who made sport of
others.
