Here's how the story goes:

I have a friend from Taipei who now lives in the US near me. She drove us to the mall and
encountered the typical "parking lot crisis," where drivers have to compete for parking spaces.
Well, we found a driver who was supposedly backing out. Our hopes were up and our eyes were set on
that lot, but we were "fooled." The driver was actually just adjusting the orientation of his car
and after backing up a bit, returned to the original position. Aggravated, my friend said,
"好jian4喔" and drove away to find another parking space.

Does anyone have a clue as to which jian4 she is referring to and what it means?

I'm guessing it would be this: 贱

It is usually used in a joking manner or if someone is really upset. You can also call someone a
贱人. For example, if someone says a really stupid joke, pun or cold joke, you can say,
你这个贱人！

贱 means cheap, despicable, slutty or kinda loser-ish.

Enjoy using this awesome word!
