Ways to subtly insult
« on: March 05, 2009, 10:21:22 AM »
Ok after going through the metal thing, I thought, "hey! Why not start a thread about how to insult someone in a very subtle fashion!"

having been in tech support, I have used this one a few times.  I am sorry that you did not take the time to read your manual where it shows how to fix this.

It is kinda like using the PEBKAC or ID10T. Another one is F41L (fail) !

So lets hear em! Maybe there will be good ones I can use on professors that think they know it all!

Actually I think they insult themselves by thinking that! They just do not know it, so, wait, Maybe you are right! They are the best but their victims are themselves! ;D

This one goes out to all those highly accomplished underachievers! Their unparalleled inactivity has made few things possible.  Congratulations!

When someone says something like, wow, how did you do that, my repsonse is "I am smarter than the average dumbazz".  I have gotten away with it often.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

Lift sunward your considerable nose,
fling wide th'abyss of yr mouth,
And you'll make a presentable sun-dial for all who pass by.

Nice Harley.  How many miles you got on that thing?
