Tim better go easy on the snacks or he'll be a fatty bumsticks (oops, too late!!)
It is a Scottish word exactly similar to nutjob or bampot - person displaying wild and violent behaviour which is often irrational and beyond what the situation should call for.

The word bamstick is now archaic and is rarely heard these days, perhaps still used by some old pensioners. It is often now shortened to "bam".

It came from a time when working class people in the housing schemes mostly in Glasgow in Scotland would attempt at all times to be perceived as being "hard" - a bit like the latin machismo.

The ultimate state to be reached in hardness was to be completely mental - you would be more violent and irrational than everyone else - people would then say "he's a complete bamstick".

The bamstick himself would often exclaim such things as "I'm pure mental", "I'm mad mental wullie frae the winey" (winey being wine alley in Govan).

Most of the similar terms as shown above for a bamstick were never used in this way- especially not "asshole" which is american for arsehole". One would never call a bamstick an arsehole or any similar words unless well out of earshot.

Chiefly Scottish slang for a mad person, lunatic, or someone who displays such tendencies, often verging on being dangerous to the general public.

fattius bumstickius 

an older and generally more revered version of the more unfortunate fatty bumsticks. An old person who though was thin in youth has put on impressive amounts of weight which his tired old skin can't support, usually resulting in man tits too, and the much feared zimmerframe made of titanium to support them, hence the veneration.
whoa there grandad, easy on the pies, you look like a fattius bumstickius
