Great Insults

Thursday, 13. November 2008 - 1:20 pm

Sharing your sorrows subtracts the pain, sharing happiness increases the joy, but what does sharing insults do? Go figure. Here’s my vote for the top 10 insults ranked on this site.

  1. Your birth certificate is an apology from the condom factory.
  2. Shut up, you’ll never be the man your mother is.
  3. We all sprang from apes, but you didn’t spring far enough.
  4. Do you have to leave so soon? I was just about to poison the tea.

Enjoy!
