Black Country insults
You can't beat a good old fashioned Black Country insult.

(For our fellow 'Merkins' the Black Country is in the heart of the UK and was called so cos of all the black soot and shite that plastered the area during the industrial revolution. It is not Birmingham though people from London think it is or have never heard of it. Other people think it is a slur on the multi ethnic population of the region but it ain't. We are proud to have a host of glamourous celebs born in the Black Country such as Lenny Henry, Frank Skinner, Julie Walters, Noddy Holder... We have a shit football team called West Bromwich Albion and most people have children with their cousins).

Anyway, we Black Country folk have many ways to tell you how ugly you are.

"Yow gorra feace lark a bulldog chewin' a wasp!"
Meaning you have a face not unsimilar to that of a bulldog who for some reason is consuming a wasp. Chewin a wasp may be replaced with "lickin piss of a thistle".

"Er's gorra fayce loike a bostid boot"
Meaning she has a face like a broken boot.

"Yow gorra feace lark a trod on chip"
Meaning you look like a chip (french fry) that has been stamped on.

"Er's gorra fayce loike a bog o sponners"
She has a face that looks like a bag containg spanners.

Still, we Black Country folk are simple and humble people who will happily insult ourselves as much as we will you. A traditional Black Country joke:
I was so ugly as a kid, our Mom had to tie a pork chop round me neck so that our dog would play with us.

(Not that funny I know).



Sorry for being boring. Love you bye.


***Edit*** Just remembered I invented an insult as a young child. Plibley - meaning a foolish person.
