EN: troublemaker; brawler
The guy in every inuman session who suddenly wants to fight everyone after two bottles of Red Horse. He's the reason why plastic chairs are used at fiestas—less damage. The neighborhood basag-ulero is the one who thinks "suntukan sa labas" is a valid debate tactic.
From `basag-ulo` ("head-breaking," a brawl) + the Spanish-derived agentive suffix `-ero`.
Carries a very negative connotation. Refers to a person known for instigating physical fights.
