    bass-ackwards

    is this how kids say ass-backwards now, or is this an attempt to avoid the (nonexistent) lemmy profanity filters lol

      I’ve heard it “bass-ackwards” way more than “ass-backwards”, for decades

      It’s basically ass-backwards said ass-backwards.

      I had high school teachers in the 80s who said it.
