Usage notes
edit- When used to express anger (or even joy, shock, surprise), a common expression is "me cago en la leche", or "me cago en la puta", which can be translated as "fuck this!" or "fuck this shit!" or "holy fuck!". A similar construction can be used when expressing anger or disrespect directed at someone or something, for example ¡Me cago en mi jefe! (Fuck my boss!), ¡Me cago en tu opinión! (Fuck your opinion!) ¡Me cago en todo! (Fuck it all!). In addition, an innumerable number of creative variations can be attested which have the same meaning ¡Me cago en el mar!, ¡Me cago en la mierda!, ¡Me cago en Dios!, ¡Me cago en tu puta madre! etc.
