Explanation:
I might use this. "Värsting" is a slang word with many meanings, similar to the slang usage of "bad" in US English - cf. "badass". "Badass screen" maybe. ;-)

Vilken sida av \"pölen\", dvs. Atlanten så klart. Pålen (Polen??) ligger ju någon annanstans. :-)) Jag tycker att \"state-of-the-art\" fungerar rätt bra för något som är bäst/ledande i sin klass.

agree  Hans-Bertil Karlsson (X): fast Värsting används ju numera också för något som är bättre än det mesta annat. Vet dock inte vad det heter på engelsk slang
1 hr
  -> Det beror ju på vilken sida av pålen vi befinner oss på, och hur pass mycket slang man ska använda. Jag tror egentligen inte på "badass" (am.eng) ens för USA, det är för mycket slang/svordom, dock ung. samma betydelseförskjutn som värsting - dålig = bra.
