How to Say ‘You're annoying as fuck!’ in French
Tu fais chier!
tyoo fay shee-ay
[tyoo fay shee-ay]
💬 Usage Tip: With [faire chier], the person bothered goes before the verb: [tu me fais chier], [ça nous fait chier]. Here [tu fais chier] means [you are being a pain] in a more general way.
🇫🇷 In France: A direct personal insult, harsher than complaining about a situation with [ça me fait chier]. It is something you say to someone, not just about bad luck.
