if brains were gasoline you wouldn't have sufficient to drive once around a cheerio on a moped.-tsuwm
Boy-Hidie, When goodbuddy tsuwm conjured up the audacity to direct this insult, one of the oldest in the book, to me, who is The Milum, I got so mad I wanted to spit.
So I did. Then I furtively searched Slithy's Famous Three Column list for just the ever-so-apt invective in order to vent my spleen...
Mmmmmm...swag bellied is good...yeah but I do so much like toad spotted, still...Pig nut! Yes Pig nut! It is so, so, tsuwm... but then again it's just not...
Finally I became so exasperated I stood up, flicked a limp wrist in what I percieve as tsuwm's direction and screamed...
"Damn you, tsuwm!... you...you...you... big bruiser!"
And then I gave him the finger.

If an insult is a disparagement, then is an outsult a compliment?

hey everyone; check out badass milum! he's so cool that the worst punishment possible would be to end up on his s*list. tread lightly, because he has an itchy finger, and would much rather tell all and sundry that he used it than spend the time to cobble together a well-written, witty or entertaining retort.

what is an insult that really insults?
An effective insult must fit the situation. No prefabricated phrase, just dropped into place, can have the same effect as an insult crafted to the lock onto the victim's indivuality. [cross-threading: another recent thread made the same point, in another context]
Disraeli once described the manner of Bishop Wilberforce as "unctuous, oleaginous, saponaceous." And the good prelate was ever afterward known as Soapy Sam. For every man there is something in the vocabulary that would stick to him like a second skin. His enemies have only to find it. -- Ambrose Bierce, Devil's Dictionary
