What does 'badass' really mean? I've heard this word so many times but I still didn't figure out its real meaning. Is that a good thing, like someone that is pretty good on something or is it not a good word to use?

That is a hard one. It is both a good thing and a bad thing. It depends on the situation. When it is a good thing it can mean that someone is doing something really cool and interesting or that something is really cool and interesting. A lot of times it is used to refer to someone doing something very daring that you wouldn't normally do like jumping over cars with your bike. It can also be used in a bad. It is usually used for someone who is breaking the law and doing harmfu/stupidl things and the person doing it thinks he/she is cool and doesn't understand or care. I would only use this word with friends. I'm not sure this helped, but I hope it did. Sorry it is very long. ><

It means something or someone is really cool! For example: Her shoes are badass! That's a badass haircut!
