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?

Even though I'm a boy...I wear earrings, because I like to adorn my ears, they're just so plain without them.
Anyway, my little nephew used to use 'Girlhead' as an insult. To him it was worse than Bum, Poo AND Wee! Well, OK, he was 5 at the time.
So on one of my cousin's wedding days, after the garter throwing, said nephew somehow ends up wearing the garter as a sweatband. So in a vain bid for humour I called him a Girlhead. Well, he was wearing a garter as a sweatband after all, wasn't he?
His reply? "No, YOU'RE the Girlhead, you wear earrings!"
He shouted it at the perfectly timed gap in the music, didn't he?
Never have I been so perfectly insulted in all my life. He did it all; he turned the tables on my insult, made me look foolish, used impeccable timing and was humourous.
It was such a perfect put-down I'm proud to have been on the receiving end.
