"Piece of crap" = mẩu chuyện tào lao -> cụm từ này nghĩa là (ai đó hoặc cái gì) hoàn toàn vô dụng, đáng khinh; vô ích, vô giá trị.

Ví dụ
In his zealous (hăng hái, nhiệt huyết) pursuit (sự theo đuổi, cuộc tìm kiếm) of mega-deals, Bob Iger has not always met with warm welcomes. When he first showed Steve Jobs one of his pet projects, Jobs bluntly (thẳng thừng) dismissed (vứt bỏ, không thừa nhận) it as “a piece of crap.”

Generally, fan-fiction writers’ strengths are effusively celebrated, and any feedback on their weaknesses is very gently conveyed. Reviews (bài phê bình) of fan fiction are overwhelmingly positive—Aragon and Davis found that out of a sample of 4,500 reviews on fanfiction.net, only 1 percent were what they called “non-constructive negative” reviews, or “flames” (such as: “I never thought that human spawn could create such a horrible piece of crap”).

Angry Virginia residents confronted (đe dọa) the Warren County Board of Supervisors Tuesday for the first time since every member was indicted (kết tội) for failing to act when taxpayer money was mismanaged (quản lý tồi). Residents packed (tập trung thành nhóm người) the board meeting after learning the supervisors were going to vote on whether to have taxpayers (người đóng thuế) pay for the legal defense. “Whoever suggested this, I just want to say, it’s like a piece of crap,” supervisor candidate Leslie Mathews said. “You have a choice today as to if you will take the citizens’ money against our will,” resident Melanie Salins said.
