What does the word "pissa" mean?

Question

mostly folk with Boston accent use it.

They say something like "that caaah is wicked pissa". It sounds like they are saying something positive about the car, not that it sucks.

Answer 1

It basically means 'cool' or 'awesome'.

So if someone said "that's wicked pissa" that'd be "that's so cool/awesome"

Answer 2

They are probably saying pizza but in the Bostonian dialect.

From the old English “pisser” meaning something very unpleasant or painful. Local Massachusetts accent caused the “r” to be dropped and slang usage caused the meaning to be reversed, creating the word pissa.
An interesting development is that the Massachusetts accent also adds “r’s” to the end of words where they don’t belong. Consequently, people have started once again to say pisser.

wicked — 'very'; alternatively, 'wicked' may also indicate approval or become a universal descriptor, e.g., "That chowdah was wicked good." Connected with this is also the word "pissah," which can be used either as an adverb or a noun meaning "great". "Pissah", while legendary Boston slang, is in reality considered vulgar (being derived from the word "piss") -- and not something true Bostonians would say in polite company.

1. Too awesome to describe.
"That car was freakin pissa, dude"
2.Very bad.
"Jeez...that's just pissa...now I have to pay to replace their window."
3. Also Meaning very funny, as to piss yourself laughing.
4. Comes from Old English (this is why the British often use it) word "Pisser," meaning very bad or painful. Massachusetts accent caused the "r" to be dropped and helped to form the slang word "pissa."

Answer 4

Different translations of the bible would suggest love and charity are synonmus. Examples found in.1st Corrinthians ch. 13 vs. 1-17 illustrate this many times. I would enjoy hearing from a scholar of the languages used in those past times to clarify my understanding. The story of the "World's Poorest Philanthropist", Gilbert "Harold" Ewing II (myself) is the reason for this querry. The " act of grace", or charity, reffered to in the news interview, has posited this question and I lack the sort of education to provide any insights of true value.
