How does a "hot mess" differ from any other sort of mess?

Asked by elbanditoroso (33578points) September 29th, 2019

I keep seeing the term “hot mess” in print referring to a total snafu. What’s the difference between a hot mess and any other kind?

Just means EXTRA fucked up.

Like…. “Dumpster fire.”

Just hyperbolic slang.

My favorite is a Rhinoceros Crowd Fuck (as coined by my friend Omer) for when a situation goes horrendously wrong.

You have a MESS…you have a side chick.
You have a SLOPPY MESS…your wife picks up the phone while you’re making plans with your side chick.
You have a HOT MESS…your wife walks in mid-orgasm while you’re screwing your side chick screaming that she wants a divorce & she’s going to take the house & kids as well as the new Lamborghini.

I always heard the term, in regards to a female’s hair. Mainly….

“That girl’s hair, is a ‘hot mess”

I always read it as messily sexy…

Hmmm, to me a Hot Mess could be a very attractive female who’s just all disheveled and not in her right mindset.
