EN: discarded; of no value
This is the vibe of that one t-shirt you own with more holes than fabric but you can't let go of. It's also what you call someone who seems to be wasting their life away, like a "black sheep" or someone who's always getting into trouble. "Sayang, ang talino pa naman niya, pero naging patapon."
From `pa-` (denoting direction or manner) + `tapon` (to throw away).
Can be used for objects or, colloquially and often pejoratively, for people whose lives are perceived as wasted.
