I have this screaming urge to point out that Faldage's faux insult to tsuwm is straight out of Rostand (1897).
no apologies to Steve Martin

Once at a social gathering, Gladstone said to Disraeli, "I predict, Sir, that you will die either by hanging or of some vile disease". Disraeli replied, "That all depends upon whether I embrace your principles or your mistress".

The following is attributed to Sam Rayburn, I believe:
A congressman entered a restaurant and, seeing his opponent seated at lunch, walked up behind him. "Sam," he said, putting his hand on the seated gent's bald head, "your head is as smooth as my wife's ass." Sam rubbed his own head for a second, and replied with a glint in his eye, "Why, so it is, Joe; so it is."

> During cultural revolution in PRC a big insult was son of a dog
When I first learnt construction site Italian, I was struck by the frequent use of dio cani (dog god) to insult everybody and everything. If used in English the intended recipient would probably fall about the place laughing!
Mind you, the same education gave me "gutso" and "figa" (sp?? - never got spelling lessons on site). I've used these a million times since and felt greatly satisfied each time. And no I won't provide a translation. (Apologies to our resident Latins).

dio cani
Then there was the time during my brief foray at French in a semiformal setting when a classmate called me a radio network.
His pronunciation wasn't any too good.

By all means, release your screaming urges!
Although these may not specifically be insults, a couple oldies but goodies: When someone didn't hear what was said or missed the key point they are told to " get the s**t out of their ears" or if you are caught bulls**tting Mom used to say "Your so full of s**t your eyes are brown!"

musick, here's a slighty less vivid variation on the same theme: I'll bet things would sound vastly different if you wiped the rectal polyps out of your ears. http://home.mn.rr.com/wwftd/

Or the closely related, your head's stuck so far up your ass you're looking out through your eyeballs. This can be shortened to the cryptic, you're really looking out through your eyeballs. This sounds almost like a compliment.

You're so far up yourself that you need to stick a toothbrush up your ass to clean your teeth.
May your ears turn into assholes and shit on your shoulders.
Not very savoury, but.

Sorry Dr. Bill, but I'm pretty sure this was first addressed to the Earl of Sandwich, with the word pox used instead of vile disease.
