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?

Hill heads!
I had almost forgotten this one...
I had a girlfriend who lived on the other side of town from me, and we used to talk a lot by cell phone as she was driving home from work. She happened to be a bit impatient while driving, so sometimes the conversation would be punctuated with a flow of invective.
One evening during such a discussion she was passing through an area where the signal isn't very strong, so her words were getting occasionally garbled. She abruptly started swearing at the driver in front of her, finishing with something that sounded like "hill head".
I thought about this for a moment, then asked, "Okay, so what's a hill head?"
A pause, then "What?!?"
"You called them a hill head. I know what a block head is, and I know what a slope head is, but I've never heard of a hill head."
"No, I called them a dough head!"
I started laughing. "I think I like hill head better. Maybe a hill head is a brainless form of yuppie? Or maybe one of those church ladies with the big hair?, Ya know, the higher the hair the closer to God."
So there ya have it, folks. A hill head is basically a slope head with money. And overprocessed hair to hide their lack of frontal lobe development.
EDIT: Come to think of it, that was also the conversation that gave us "programmable cheese". Strange things happen when you have poor signal on a cell phone...
