InsultsLast week two kids ran past me, one chasing the other. As they passed, the little boy turns to the girl chasing him and screams, "go away, you, you... you GIRLPANTS."
She stopped dead, cut to the core. Well, sort of. Anyway, we've added it to our repertoire, but are keen to expand further our sweary lexicon. What's the best insult you've heard? How effective was it? How did they retaliate?

We tried to get a new insult started...My son and I were going on an errand, and part of it involved going to the grocery store. While we were there he requested (and got) a whole dill pickle from the deli, which he proceded to eat as we drove.
We stopped for gas and my son needed to use the bathroom, so he got out of the car. As he did so, the plastic bag which had held the pickle blew out of the car. I said, "Hey! Pick up the pickle bag and throw it away!" He did so, then went off to the bathroom.
When he came back I said something about the pickle bag, and he started giggling. I said, "Hey, let's try an experiment. Try using picklebag at school as an insult. Let's see if we can get others to use it!"
He did so. He got in considerable trouble with one of his teachers over this, as she thought it was a euphamism for something else. But by the end of the school year he had at least a few people around the school using the term.
I'm waiting for it to pop up online...
