"Snake" is a slang term used to describe a person who is treacherous, deceitful, or willing to betray others. It comes from the literal snake, an animal long associated in Western culture with cunning, danger, and betrayal—most famously in the biblical story of the Garden of Eden. The term has been used metaphorically in English for centuries and appears in informal, social, literary, and political contexts to warn against or criticize untrustworthy behavior. It is moderately to strongly derogatory, aimed at character rather than appearance, and conveys moral condemnation.

Dirtbag is a slang term that appeared in mid-20th-century English to describe a person regarded as filthy, morally vile, or contemptible. The term combines "dirt," symbolizing filth or impurity, with "bag," suggesting containment or lumping together, to create a metaphor for someone unpleasant, corrupt, or worthless. Historically, it was derogatory, used to insult someone's character or hygiene. Today it remains informal and insulting, commonly used in casual, critical, or aggressive contexts rather than polite conversation.

"Weasel" is a slang term for a person who is sneaky, untrustworthy, or likely to betray others. It has been used in English since at least the 16th century, drawing on the small, agile mammal's reputation for cunning and elusiveness. The term is used in informal, critical, or mocking contexts to describe deceitful or underhanded behavior. It is derogatory, context-dependent, and not vulgar, signaling distrust or contempt rather than sexual or extreme offense.
