You smell like Art Garfunkel’s post-tour corduroys.

Goddamn, Morgenstern, you’re so dumb I wanna cry about it. How did your mama even get pregnant with a mental defect like you? Did your daddy lean back and hock a loogie on her pussy?

i’ve been reading too much stephen king lately. somehow sounds like one of his.

I can call someone a suppurating bubo on the anus of humanity with a mother so slatternly she got fired from a sperm bank for drinking on the job, but I can’t call them a cunt? That’s like 8 different levels of retarded right there.

Even more so now because the lady who was called a cunt and got the cunt rule put in place is no longer among us.

Personally I consider \*\*Frank \*\*to be something of a morgenstern and \*\*Chefguy \*\* to be a total morgenstern.

Harsh, almost unforgivable, words I know, but sometimes you have to call it like it is.

Well, someone with even moderate skill at English and more flair than a one-petaled daisy would know not to reuse the syllable “park” within a sentence. An alternate that could prove acceptable to someone accustomed to assembling words in media other than brightly-colored wooden blocks and letter-shaped refrigerator magnets might be:

_You certainly enjoy parking your van near playgrounds._

I’m sure you will advance with the passage of time, though I doubt any glaciers will view you with envy.

My girlfriend texted me once to say that the man sitting next to her on the bus smelled of wee. Perhaps that was him.

**Morganstern** , your shit is flakey. If you don’t get your shit together, we’re going to all jump in your shit!

Oh, and guys, just a warning… NEVER let **Morganstern** watch your herd of goats or sheep for you when you go away for a weekend. He uses mint jelly in ways that it was never meant to be used.

No! What she said the smell was of stale cigarette smoke, vodka and pee. Get it right.

Honestly, 90% of these insults are about as boring as watching the bag lady poop in a tin can.

No one has called anyone a feltcher, yet?
