Word or Expression: der Penner

Closest English Translation: dip-shit, piece of shit
Literal translation: bum

So the literal translation is bum, as in a homeless person. However, if in American English one would call someone a bum as a Schimpfwort, who is not actually homeless, I would assume the name caller means it to say someone is lazy. In German this does not mean lazy-ass. From what I have gathered this means someone who is a piece of shit or someone who is a dip-shit.
