Thread: Big Words, Big Talk

  1. #1
    i was just wondering if insulting people with big words is more effective than just plain derogatory strings?

    for example, which is more hurtful:

    "Shut your mouth, you semantics-talking, son of a bitch"

    or

    "Shut the fuck up, you cock-schmoking, fag packet"

    EDIT: bad spellings
    EDIT: the 'speelings' thing wasn't funny

    I find the more eloquent insults tend to be wasted on their targets.

    "Shut it, scum, one day my taxes will be paying for your giro" is a prime example - the bastards actually take pride in it.

    Yeah like you've ever said that to someone without your face being caved in.

    No, it worked quite well on the neds at school, they really do feel quite happy about it. You can even get away with substituting "giro" with "prison cell", because it makes them feel like they&#39;re hard.

    Are there "EDs" in Scottland and thus the "n" is needed for clarification?

    You can use the biggest words in the world but if the guy you say them to still flattens you it really makes no difference

    Yes.

    And to be honest I prefer "nominally-educated delinquent" as it&#39;s more accurate.
