A magiros ma-gear-os is effectively a massive battler (i.e. one who tries and fails at most aspects of human activity). Although used as a common pay-out the word really means that you have reached the summit of human stupidity. Word origin comes from General P. Magiros who lead his troops to the highest recorded casualties in Australian-Colonial English battle records as he was ambushed while fixing his hair in his war tent.
