He is the only shit head with enough nerve to backstab my mom.

backstab 

So called "friends" will act like they really like you, be friendly with you. And then goes out and make up lies to your girlfriend that you're seeing someone else and that he has been covering for you for the whole time. This makes your girlfriend seem confused and think you do not take your relationship seriously.
When we found out what that backstabbing prick did, we encircled him and beat the living sense out of him. Now he cannot talk and cause any harm to anyone.

backstab 

Pretending to stick up for you at work and later you find out they've been talking trash about you. (In fact, saying the exact opposite). Striking you down from behind.
Jon told me that he stuck up for me. But he actually voted to get me fired and he knew in advance it was going to happen. He backstabs.

Person 1: Let's be friends
Person 2: Okay!

Person 1: I'm going to tell you my feelings okay?
Person 2: Okay!

(After a while)
Person 2: what a drama queen! (Said to others) (As they read the persons messages)

Person 1 to different person: They totally backstabbed me! I sent those messages in confidence!

backstab fishing 

A term used for a technique used in the video game series Dark Souls, where a player continuously side steps around their opponent in an attempt to get a critical hit. It is a way to cheese an opponent quickly with high strength and/ or dexterity, albeit it's not being done to you in which it is absolutely frustrating beyond belief.. This technique accompanied with a laggy internet connection on your opponents behalf (during pvp) will never fail to work. Also, it will never fail to piss people off.
Player 1: *begins circling player 2* Player 2: *targets player one in defense* ; *both players refuse to attack* Player 2; What the fuck! He's just Backstab Fishing, this is annoying as shit! *gets backstabbed and dies* FFFFFFFuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!
