Why it does not pay to get sassy with Mrs. Miasma:

Me: "It's not my fault you don't have a sense of humor."

Mrs Miasma: "Actually, it might be."

When is a peace sign not a peace sign? @superlinguo on a gesture that divides America and the UK ✌️

Recently reminded of the word "hoop" which makes up part of my favourite insult of my own creation:
"Sniff my hoop"
For people who are one step lower than those you invite to "kiss my arse" (or ass if you're non British, can also be "erse" if Scots)
You can do a finger thumb sniff gesture to drivers on the motorway (free/express way I guess). This usually gets a look of pure confusion. (Slow burn)

Boosts welcome. I want to hear this on tv and die happy.

Boom. I felt this in my soul.

This is not constructive debate!
Why so personal.
“Reading comprehension”…really?

Do you feel better?

What words we use to debate…
Especially, on such matters of great importance to so many…
Can move us forward or drive us backward.

Insulting folks, while debating issues…feels lazy, a coping mechanism &…
Bound to fail at finding “constructive results”.

Life’s getting shorter everyday…

Not sure how the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker led to "yellow-bellied" as a synonym for cowardly. Are they known to be extra afraid?

@mlevel I bemoan that my rather erudite main character in the stories I am now writing is a person of action. She rarely gets a chance to throw a good insult at an opponent. Here's one, however.

Wolf-whistled and hit upon, she's eventually asked her name. She tells him, "Gelding," and later points out "It's a verb."

"The judge added that despite common vernacular, “cases aren’t actually thrown out”, but that in this matter “the court is inclined to actually take the file and throw it out the window”.

“Alas,” he said, “the courtrooms of the Montreal courthouse do not have windows.”" #courts #insults #Canada #weirdnews

On the spectrum of insults, this wouldn't even come close to the worst thing I've been called.
