my own personal interpretations based entirely on vibes are as follows

asshole: someone who is intentionally hurtful to others for their own personal gain

jackass: an asshole who is, additionally, reckless

dickhead: a jackass who is, additionally, stupid

    I would flip jackass and dickhead around. A dickhead does not have to be stupid, but is more reckless than an asshole. And a jackass can be intentionally a jackass, but most of the time is just an idiot.

    Also, an asshole is more clearly intentional/malicious, whereas a dickhead could be oblivious or unacceptably inconsiderate.

    Interesting. I wonder if that changes regionally.

    my own personal interpretations based entirely on vibes are as follows

    asshole: the anatomical opening at the end of the digestive tract, commonly known as the anus in human biology.

    jackass: a male donkey belonging to the equine family, often characterized by long ears and a stubborn temperament.

    dickhead: the upper part of the penis, specifically referring to the glans or head of the male reproductive organ.
