suck
verb- to be useless, unpopular, distasteful, of no worth US, 1965
When the term came into currency in the US in the 1960s, sexual connotations made it a vulgar, taboo-ridden term. By the mid-1990s, all sense of taboo had vanished in the US except for older speakers for whom the sexual connotation remained inescapable. In UK English, the term, first used as a noun (1913) expressing contempt, never enjoyed the sexual implications found in the US. If anything, there was long an upper-class air to the term thanks in part to the “Yah boo, sucks to you” catchphrase associated with Billy Bunter, a fat upper-crust schoolboy created by author Frank Richards. - I wrote on the wall, “Franz Kafka sucks.” — The Joint, p. 205, 21 February 1963
