    Spanish? Swedish? Nonsense. It's swahili for "Your video sucks and you smell"

    Babelfish ftw

    That's the literal translation. In this context it really means "you can do better".

    As Duckjob said. Can also mean 'You can do it better' but no real difference between the two of them.

    Yes, I do have a tendancy to translate over-literally.

    I've never actually heard a Spaniard say literally 'kiss my arse'. Better alternatives would be 'chupa mis huevos' (suck my balls) or 'vete a la mierda' (f*ck off).
