Gallbladder (n.) the small sac-shaped organ beneath the liver, in which bile is stored after secretion by the liver and before release into the intestine. The Gallbladder is one of two organs the human body can survive without, and as such, many doctors refer to it as the “Howlie” of the organ system, as it is effectively worthless.
‘Gallbladder’, sometimes used as ‘gawbladder’ or ‘gawb’ for short, is a derogatory term used to indicate that someone or something is poor/disgusting/unfavorable in quality or condition. The term arises from the fact that the gallbladder is a small organ that stores and concentrates bile, which is commonly associated with the taste of vomit. It can be used as a noun or an adjective.
