jack-a-leg

A total, complete doofus who just can't seem to get anything right, ever. Can also be used to refer to an animal, such as a dog, who acts totally off-the-wall, unpredictable and sometimes anti-social.

That goddam black catahoula just went after my neighbor's friendly dog. She can be such a jack-a-leg sometimes.

Jack leg

A person that you don't know their name and do not like and that's what you call them when communicating or talking about a person that you get dislike.

This term came about working on a construction site when it's hard to remember everyone that you meet and want to talk bad about somebody.

1.) Hey Jack leg move out of the way.
2.) What do you think about that Jack leg over there.
