Ver-Wrecked



adjective: a messed up person, a handicapped person or any other person with a disabilty or disease.

The word "verrekte" usually comes in a set phrase "verrekte mongol". It is a deliberately offensive word uttered by Aso's. The Urban dictionary gives a good description of this word, its history and its usage in a Dutch context:

Verrekt Mongol, derived from popular Dutch TV show "New Kids on the Block" where a bunch of antisocial 20somthing-year-olds cause chaos and insult handicaps, the mentally ill and patients with disease (i.e. cancer) with harsh vulgar language. the meaning goes along the lines of "fucking retard" but can be used for almost any occasion.
dutch handicapped woman crosses the street in a wheelchair.

Bunch of 20somthing antisocials point at her and shout

"JEZUS, WAT EEN VERREKTE MONGOL"


"Mongol" has long been banished from the English language as an insult, probably because it turns out Mongolians are freaking huge and could destroy you with one finger, and they probably don't appreciate being used as an insult. Mongolia is basically a giant dojo for world champion Sumo wrestlers, so it's probably not a good idea.

However, Dutch Aso's don't seem to care. Then again, people with mullets tend not to care. It shows that Dutch people are at the cutting edge of reinventing offensive words, which is refreshing in this era of P.C. language.


While I don't recommend you to go around insulting actual disabled people, it is nice to have an alternative to "retarded", which somehow has become one of the most offensive words in the English language. We here at the Gazelle move to incorportate ver-wrecked into common usage. It's basically the same word, and it's always nice to improve your (offensive) word power.

If you need to practice the proper usage, use the video below. You really have to spit it out. It feels good. Trust me.





Example Sentences:

"I'm so tired. I'm totally ver-wrecked."

"People who say the R-word is more offensive than the N-word are ver-wrecked mogols."
