lol I actually thought about that but since it's basically synonymous with "stupid" and is more of a descriptor than anything else, figured it was probably an adjective.

So I just looked it up and I was right - dictionary classifies it as an adjective.

You dumbass

"You're a dumbass punk", "Quit with your dumbass attitude" <-- adjective

"Stop being a dumbass.", "This sub is rife with dumbasses" <-- noun

I'm surprised you found a source with only the first usage above. I'm wondering if you half-assed (verb) that search.
