"You're s**t" vs "You ain't s**t" [closed]

"You're shit" vs "You ain't shit" what do these two phrases mean? Are they interchangeable? if yes then when?


Solution 1:

“You ain't shit”

  • "You are nothing compared to me"
  • "You are worthless"
  • "You amount to nothing"

“You're shit”

  • "You're bad/terrible/awful (at this)"
  • "You are (literally) a turd"

The main difference here is that "You ain't shit" usually implicates the victim of this verbal abuse with some form of inferiority whereas "You're shit" is mostly just a simple insult.
