Wait.
Isn’t there also ‘Der Scheiß’?
Like in the sentece:
“Hör auf mit dem Scheiß”
Yes, synonym pretty much.
So i assume you would only use ‘Scheiß’ in fixed sentences?
Not really. You can replace a lot of “die Scheiße” with “der Scheiß” as far as I can think of it now.
– Was soll der Scheiß/die Scheiße?
– Was für ein Scheiß/eine Scheiße.
And so on.
