Just how long he’s been hearing some of these names (vulgar or otherwise) may depend on when he picked up the name “Reince” (and perhaps whether there’s some story behind that). It’s just a nickname. His real name is Reinhold Richard Priebus. ---

One of my favorite war novels is [_The Sand Pebbles_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sand_Pebbles) by Richard McKenna. It was made into a fairly good movie with Steve McQueen but (naturally) a lot of the small stuff got left out. One of them was where the men of the [Yangtze gunboat](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yangtze_Patrol) _San Pablo_ were in a bar along with their Royal Navy counterparts off the _Woodcock_. The latter were complaining that the Pebbles had cooked up the insult “Timber Dick” for their ship and the worst they could think of in retaliation was “Simple Apple.”\* In the interests of international relations, the Pebbles vowed to regard that as a grievous insult worthy of an instant fight. \*They couldn’t use “Sand Pebbles” because they already called themselves that. ---

> [@WOOKINPANUB](#): > > I had absolutely no clue what the OP meant and know that I do I would say it’s too lame to be an insult. It does, however, speak volumes about the person who said it. What a cunt (now _that’s_ a good, solid insult). > Seriously, what the hell kind of grown man says something that childish? PROTIP to the Mooch: If you want your insult to have any staying power, you should REALLY make sure that _you’re_ going to be around long enough to shepherd it through its growing stages.
