What would "Estás hecho mierda" mean?

Question

I'm in a play-by-email RPG, and this phrase came in a conversation between my character and another, and before I get irritated, I wanted to make sure this is a derogatory comment.

"Estás hecho mierda" was the phrase used, and unfortunately, my Spanish is super rusty.

Thanks for your help!

I would recommend you avoid that, see Julian's post below. - pacofinkler, Mar 8, 2011

Thanks, everyone! I knew it wasn't nice, but I wanted to double-check before reacting. The little Spanish I remember comes from high school classes, and that was a long time ago. - Gyrmalcyn, Mar 8, 2011

Answer 1

This expression is normally used to talk about things rather than people and with an article, ie: Esta ciudad está hecha una mierda .... This city is worthless (tse,tse)

To refer to a person this way would be one of the most derogatory things you could say. You´re better off not using it for people.

Answer 2

You are very damaged... But that's an ordinary way to say it.

Answer 3

Hmmm, now what exactly did he say? Can you reproduce the conversation.

Actually, it may simply mean: I am feeling low, I am feeling really ****ty.

And yes, it is used with an article.

Where is this person you were talking to from?

seeeee, we can even say **** here, jeje - 00494d19, Mar 9, 2011
