I understand that it’s unreasonable to ask you to stop being crazy all at once. You’ve been really, really crazy for a really, really long time, and by now the flow of insanity must have a lot of pressure behind it. But if you could just aim the spray of your crazy on someone other than me, that would be great.

To be perfectly frank, you don’t even deserve a good insult to be aimed at you. To be angry at you would require me to acknowledge your presence, and you do not merit even that.

You dimwits couldn’t even put this in the right forum!

I kid, of course. But since this is kind of an insult game, I’m moving this to the Game Room. The forum that smells funny.

Whoa, lass, chill. It was supposed to be ironic and goofy and funny. Some of my closest friends are conservative. Misguided, to be sure, but they’re still my friends and I love 'em.

"The saddest thing about you? You only define yourself by what you _aren’t_. What you _rebel_ against. You don’t build anything, you don’t create anything of your own…I don’t think you even can. Or ever could. All you can do is make _yourself_ feel big by tearing everything _else_ down.

That’s not being a human being. That’s not even a damn animal. You’re just a hinderance. You’re a sea anchor on the future of human civilization."

:: critic mode  
Almost every word of that insult works, but you falter in using “sea anchor.” Anchors are useful and necessary. I think you want “millstone.”

Of course, nothing any of us have written compares to \*\*Euthanasiast’s \*\*classic.

Your mother, taking a rest when walking in the desert, lay down in the shade ofa palm tree.

A passing camel mistook her for another camel, and took advantage of her.

When the camel found out what it had done, it killed itself in shame.

Nine months later, you were born.

Rumors that you are the mother of the Anti-Christ are untrue. Mephistopheles did intend to beget his spawn upon you, it is true, for you are a woman resplendent in vileness to a degree seen in no other woman since the beginning of time. But when your trembling form naked form was dragged before him, the Dark One shuddered, called for burning coals to be thrust into his own eyes, and said, “I wouldn’t fuck that chick with \*\*Jesus’ \*\*dick.”
