Definition - I Can't Spell Worth a Shit.

Background - While on Rimfire Central's forum, someone asked what the various acronyms meant that posters were using. After posting some of the ones I commonly used, I noticed I had made a spelling error. My first thought was "I can't spell worth a shit," and so I included that ICSWAS acronym as an attempt at humor when I edited my post. To the best of my knowledge, no one has ever used the acronym before me, but of course I could be wrong as I don't constantly patrol the net looking for new words :)
Post edited because ICSWAS.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
