Entropy with a pulse and a couch dent shaped like destiny.
means A person who is habitually messy, lazy, or careless about their appearance and surroundings.
from Borrowed from Irish 'slab,' meaning mud or mire — the word originally described soft, sloppy mud or a swampy patch of ground before it oozed its way into English (via Anglo-Irish usage) to describe a sloppy, unkempt person. The slide from 'mud' to 'messy human' took hold mainly in the 1800s-1900s, as the muck-stuck sense dried up and the insult stuck around.
