Ought the transitive and intransitive verbs be distinguished? I am over my head, but isn't the sentence "You really fucked up" using the intransitive and "You really fucked it up" using the transitive? Or is there no important difference? David W. Hogg 04:26, 14 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

In Australia, well where I live, dunno about the rest of the world, in some cases Fuck Up means similar to shut up. Just something to think about. Maybe I should fuck up, cos I'm wasting time searching for fuck in wiktionary. Just throwing in my 2 cents. 61.69.237.202 05:57, 11 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Interesting... perhaps a contracted form of "shut the fuck up"? -- Visviva 06:53, 11 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Rfv-sense "To cause someone to make a big mistake."

I can't really imagine what context this would be in ("I shouldn't have bought this car, but the salesman fucked me up??"). I've added two new senses that I think they author might have intended (to intoxicate ("The alcohol fucked me up") and to traumatise ("My upbringing fucked me up")), but can anyone cite this sense?
