"Of course, some of us are less careful about our constitutions than others, being reckless, which is an old English word related to "reckoning" but not to "wreck" or "wrack""

There's also "wacked"

Here's are a couple of definitions for wacked from the
Urban Dictionary http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wack

"wack   

1. To be of low or dubious quality. Origin: comes from 'whacky', which evolved to 'whacked' or 'whacked out'. Eventually shortened to 'wack'. The 'h' is usually dropped to differentiate the meaning from 'whack', which is to hit something hard or, kill (old wise guy terminology).

[Example]
Yo, my dog, those shoes are wack."

Here's an example of the use of "wacked" in a sentence:
