2.詈词。 元 无名氏 《渔樵记》第二折:“穷短命,穷弟子孩儿,你去了一日光景,打的柴在那里?”《警世通言·玉堂春落难逢夫》:“短命的!娘为你痛得肝肠碎,一家大小为你哭得眼花,那个不牵掛!”昆曲《十五贯》第七场:“自从那个短命的 况锺 来到 无锡 ,害得我心惊肉跳,坐卧不安。”

...seems like it could be the equivalent of "damned" or maybe "wretched" "cursed" [kur-sid]...
I'll add it as "damned" but leave it to the discretion of the eds..

I think the use as a curse (at least in the old days) is sufficiently self-evident
