Insults
Last 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?

Just happened a few minutes ago...
...the manager of our help desk approached myself and my colleague.
Manager: Do you guys give access to the ABC system?
Me: Yes we do.
Manager: Ah right. Great. So do you guys have a form or whatever that the user has to fill in?
Me: Yes we do.
Manager: Great. So really that form should come through to the help desk when you've granted the access, shouldn't it?
Me: It does. We put it in the in-tray in your department, just in front of your desk.
Manager: Oh, do you?
Me: Yes we do.
Manager: Oh...OK.
Me: Now is there any more of your department's procedures that you'd like me to explain to you?
To be fair to him, he did laugh at this point!
