The Shakespearean Insulter
The Shakespearean Insulter has been around for some time, in one form or another, but it just never gets old.
Mind you, I grew up in a household where if my dad wanted us to go away and leave him alone he would tell us to avaunt and quit his sight, so maybe I'm just sentimental.
This is one of my favourites, just because Dad liked it: "Go, prick thy face, and over-red thy fear, thou lily-liver'd boy."
Apparently nobody ever told him that it's bad luck to quote Macbeth.
I also like "The devil damn thee black, thou cream-faced loon! Where got'st thou that goose look?" I hope I'm remembering that one correctly. You'd think it would be hard to forget.
Go ahead, try it! Post your favourite insult!
