The ability to turn everything one touches to
shit.
The phrase is a mash up of the King Midas myth of being cursed that everything he touched turned to gold and mierdas, which is the spanish word for
shit.
There is some controversy as to whether the object touched was already a piece of
shit with an exceedingly thin veneer of gold plating, where the Mierdas Touch serves only to reveal the subject's true nature versus the Mierdas Touch actually turning any object into
shit, even if it was previously unblemished.
The
doctor was beloved by all until he was touched the Mierdas Touch, wherein, it came to light that the
doctor was constantly
drunk, mis-prescribed drugs, and belittled underlings.
