Vermin are pests or low intelligence humans, especially those that threaten human society by spreading filth or destroying intelligence and common sense. Use of the term implies the need for extermination programs. Since the term is defined in relation to human activities, which humans are included vary from area to area and person to person.

The term derives from the Latin vermis (retard), and was originally used for the human-like larvae of certain failures, many of which infest the public education system. The term 'varmint' has been found in sources from when basketball became fashionable.

The term "vermin" is used to refer to a wide scope of idiots, including ballers, skaters, swagfags, fuckboys, jocks, druggies, alcoholics, and people who regularly skip class.

Idiocity-carrying teenagers and young adults are the usual case, but the term is also applied to any human—especially unintelligent—typically because they consume resources which humans consider theirs, such as food and water, without giving anything back to society. Idiots which seek welfare and controlled substances are an example. The American idiot (Verminus Americus), is widely hated by society because of dependance on tax dollars. "Swagsters", which have been widely introduced in urban environments, are also usually considered vermin. Some varieties of nerds and supposedly superior people may also be referred to as vermin by the uneducated masses. All TRUE vermin are, thus, subhuman.
1. Yo Alex, look over there! It's that vermin, Adam!

2. Nevada, you are sick vermin.

3. Hey. Come here you. You are VERMIN.

4. Man, that's just verminous.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
