Ok, so a friend recently disappointed me with stupidity which directly affected me.
What are some words you use to describe such people?
Let's get creative a la good ole William S as well as base like 2 Live Crew.

Tue, July 18, 2006 - 9:39 AMthis is from a good friend of mine. i'm quite fond of it.

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Tue, July 18, 2006 - 10:25 AMmy usual response to stupidity is "YOU... have some serious issues you have to work out with yourself !"
if it's namecalling i prefer "sh*tf*ck !" which i think is from the movie lake placid.
bill s. paraphrase: "bit light of brain are we ?"

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Thu, July 20, 2006 - 9:38 PMthe thing i don't like about f*cktard is the tard part. i don't like the use of retard to describe a person with a cognitive deficit or a developmental disability or its vernacular use to describe someone who is acting in a stupid way and thereby demeaning those who were formerly labelled retarded.
i prefer f*ckwad. -

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Sun, October 29, 2006 - 7:55 AMI note you wrote "formerly labelled retarded." I'm a teacher and "mentally retarded" is still used to describe certain students. What were you thinking of that had replaced the term "retarded?"

regarding "fucktard"
Wed, November 1, 2006 - 3:40 PMit was explained to me by some younger friends that the "-tard" isn't the same "-tard" as "retard," rather, it is the "-tard" of "bastard."
That makes it easier to say, too. FucktAArd doesn't roll off the tongue. Fucktehrd does. And then in spoken language, fucktard ("fucktehrd") could actually be mistaken as Fuck Turd.
I think it's an all purpose goodie. -

Re: regarding "fucktard"
Wed, November 1, 2006 - 4:11 PMthe idea of being a cabbie ANYWHERE reminded me of the word a highschool friend introduced to my vocabulary and that, later in life, I would SHOCK the unfortunate passengers in my car with: dickmeat.
I rarely drive anymore (happier by bike), but still encounter people that get me THAT pissed off as to exclaim "dickmeat!" -

Re: regarding "fucktard"
Wed, November 1, 2006 - 4:55 PMhaha, one time in therapy I referred to someone as a dickhead, and then stopped and corrected myself and called him a fuckhead instead, and my therapist was like, what's the difference?
And I said, I don't want to insult someone based on inborn immutable characteristics. He can't help it that he has a dick and is therefore male. However, anyone can be a fuckhead, male or female, and it's *always* a choice.
I don't think he got it.

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Tue, July 18, 2006 - 7:50 PMI usually say "Fuck off you asshole" in an Arnold Schwartzenegger voice or just give them an evil drop dead asshole look then suffer them the extreme silent treatment. Alot of times silence speaks louder than words. It's pretty easy to make someone understand you think they are human shit & if they died you couldnt give a fuck. If you can show them that extreme then somehow let them know it's only because you really would like to be their friend & they get it then great. Some assholes simply cannot be reached.

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Wed, July 19, 2006 - 6:23 AMI made a girl cry in school by calling her that in front of everyone and everyone laughing at her. At the beginning of the school year she & everyone else knew I had a crush on her. We were at a party & everyone laughed at me when she told them all I was a virgin (OMG! at 15?! Tragic!) Everyone at school gave me shit about it all year & called me fag (big surprise) lol & tried to get me layed. (If you ever want to get laid just tell people youre a virgin and you'll have all kinds of slutty people knockin on your door! Anyway, I started calling her FB. She and everyone else thought it meant FINE BABE. I think it actually did initially. So all year she basked in her FB compliments & smiled her in crowd cheerleader excellent student award winning bs. At the end of the year she said something to me again in front of like 50 people at lunch on the last day of the school year. Everyone just kind of looked at her in disbelief that she could be such a rude heartless cunt on the last day when we are all having fun. I saw this as my opportunity to get back so told FB in a really loud voice (I had everyones attention) "HEY FB!" You know why everyone calls you that? Do you really think it means FINE BABE?! IT MEAN FUCK BAG you bitch! Cuz youve pretty much fucked every guy in this school. Except for me of course cuz I'm still a virgin!" Everyone laughed and she cried. Then some big football dudes threatened to kick my ass. I told them if they thought it was a good day to die I was ready to kill them all & seriously would have. I told them to go tell the principal & their teachers & parents that the loser virgin fag threatened to kill them & see if they dont laugh you out of the room. That was one of the greatest days of my life. lol

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Thu, July 20, 2006 - 11:28 AMthis in response to
"listen to the words you just said..."
I also like the "what happened to the nice boy that used to live inside you.."
but again, all about the deep breath and control, although sometimes our friends are so stunningly brutal, it makes you steady just from the shock. -

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Thu, July 20, 2006 - 5:49 PMBeing a jerk to a jerk is easy. You can always retort back meaner....and even confuse them in the process (great list, Bobster!!)... but do you also have the courage to challenge yourself to not take their words personally, to acknowledge (at least to yourself) *their* struggles, and to thank them for the insight (that you get from stalking those bristles on your neck) and wish them well on their journey? Ahhh... Such power is *there*!! -

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Thu, July 20, 2006 - 7:23 AMWhen we're hurt by those who are close to us, often we go for the strongest words possible, particularly when we're wondering 'where the hell did that come from?' Not to mention, when we're subject to abuse, thoughtlessness or idiocy of others. For me, particularly when dealing with those who are fairly insignificant or are just trying it on I tend to give them a look which implies the person is one of the best arguments for birth control; occasionally I'll throw in 'you, idiot!' As a sometimes teacher I couldn't use some of the language I might want.
Otherwise, try to use some of these archaic words with the sweetest smile and gentlest voice (and as they're not likely to know the meaning or find the word it most abridged dictionaries the person can't really deliver a suitable comeback).
smatchett: small and nasty person (good when describing annoying kids)
suoid: hog-like
blattoid: resembling a cockroach
microphallic: having an abnormally small penis (or vagina, but doesn't carry the same sort of stigma)
lapidable: worthy of being stoned
spraint: otter faeces
smellsmock: a revolting lecher
sophomaniac: someone who's deluded that they are wise
beldam: mean and ugly woman
witling: a person who lacks understanding or intelligence
tomally: green, slimy liver of a lobster
merdivore: an eater of excrement
slubberdegullion: a contemptible slob
shardborn: one who was born or dwells in excrement
hircine: smelling like a goat
fustilugs: an unwieldly or slovenly woman
fussock: a large fat woman
anoiac: idiot -

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Thu, July 20, 2006 - 9:13 AMWow, Bobster, those are awesome.
Going the other way, deeply into the "base like 2 Live Crew" category:
Some college friends and I used to have insult contests, wherein we'd just throw insults back and forth until somebody came up with one that seemed untoppable. My friend JP won the contest for all time when she called me BLOODY CUNT BUBBLE.

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Thu, July 27, 2006 - 5:23 PMFor real, i wouldn't say anything. Saying anything, anything at all, more than "sorry you feel that way" keeps me entangled with such a person, and if i want to get free, i best hold my tongue. ( which used to be quite sharp)
Just got hardcore university level refresher course in just this in getting free of verbally abusive spouse. ( for real!)
On one level, freedom from not saying anything outloud and perpetuating utter stupidity. On another level, not saying anything in my head, and wasting any more of this incarnation on thinking about utterly stupid situations.
Just let it go and move on. Save verbal talents for figuring a way out of this. -

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Tue, August 1, 2006 - 3:40 PMBack to the original topic of this thread:
My mom used to say to me (when I was at the height of my teenaged-girl horribleness), "Who ARE you, and what have you done with my daughter?"
It works well for anybody (insert "friend," "husband," etc. where appropriate); there is neither profanity nor base insult; and it makes you be the better person. -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.

Re: Words for those who hurt us
Sun, October 29, 2006 - 1:33 AMWhen someone does something shitty to me, I have a joke I tell them:
"There are three psychiatrists standing in an elevator. The first psychiatrist turns to the second psychiatrist and kicks him very hard in the shin. They stand there for a moment, and the third psychiatrist turns to the second and asks him, 'Aren't you going to do anything?' 'Why should I?' he replies. 'It's his problem.'"
The point of the joke is, it's THEIR problem, and I'm not going to make it mine. They usually don't get the joke and, well, that's THEIR problem too.
