What are you going to put on your resume - dumbass?
— That '70s Show • 1998

What it means
Our interpretation.
A question about a résumé becomes an insult rather than a request for useful information. The speaker places “dumbass” where an achievement or qualification might be expected. That substitution turns the language of presenting oneself favourably into a pointed way of questioning someone’s competence.
