(chiefly, colloquial, with 'of') who or something that 'breaks', tames, or overpowers a specified person or thing.
Buster means: who or something that 'breaks', tames, or overpowers a specified person or thing.. It has drug-related associations; worth a calm conversation about which side of the topic your teen is on. If your teen uses it, context will usually make the intent clear.

buster means: who or something that 'breaks', tames, or overpowers a specified person or thing.. Register: very informal, often derogatory or vulgar. Avoid in formal, business, academic, or polite writing. Even in casual speech the word can offend and is best left out of a learner's active vocabulary. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself.
