twerp
Insignificant little pest
A twerp is an annoying or contemptible person, typically one regarded as insignificant or foolish.
The word carries mild dismissiveness rather than strong hostility—you might call an obnoxious kid a twerp, but rarely a genuine threat: Some twerp cut in front of me in line.
Don't be such a twerp.
