What does "bummed to death" mean?

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Raped. In this case. But “bummed” is a British way of saying “had anal sex.”

Oh wow I had no idea. Thanks.

In the US, being bummed means being disappointed.

Bummed about the lackluster bumming

If you "are bummed" you're disappointed. If you "get bummed" you had an exciting evening.

But you can “get bummed out” and in the American sense. Although in this context it does sound like, “getting bummed out” means like “getting turned out.” So like a serious bumming.
