People Share The Best Insults They've Ever Heard

"What is the best insult you have ever heard?" –– This was today's burning question from Redditor RedDawn985, and could they have known the extent of the treasure trove upon which they stumbled?

We have to admire the snappy, caustic wit that enables people to issue scorching remarks without so much as a blink of their eyes, and we implore you to share the best burns you've ever heard with us!



"So there's a sliding door..."

So there's a sliding door in my parent's house that my brother is famous for never closing after he goes through despite my parents insisting that it stay closed to prevent drafts. The other day, my brother walks through and doesn't shut the door as usual. Dad pipes up:

Dad: That door ain't an assh*le, you know?

Brother: huh?

Dad: it doesn't shut itself every time a piece of sh*t comes through.

All of us, including my brother, instantly started laughing our asses off at that one.

"High school debate teacher walked past me..."

High school debate teacher walked past me and a friend lounging in the hallway and said, "Good morning Salem and Friend. I drove past a pile of trash this morning and managed not to think of you."

And then he walked away.

"Step-dad..."

"I've seen better arms on a chair."

Step-dad absolutely crushing the dreams of a friend who had been working out trying to put on muscle.

"A friend asked..."

I'm slightly overweight.

A friend asked where i was and someone replied, "Probably stuck in a door somewhere."

Even I couldn't stop laughing.

To which this person replied...

Hopefully you didn't open your mouth while chewing bonbons.

"The most creative one I've ever heard..."

As an Irishman, the term "gobshite" holds a special place in my heart.

The most creative one I've ever heard, though was from my stepfather's uncle the first time we went out to meet his family in Texas when I was 13. I'm a ginger, but freckles only really come out in the sun. When they come out I don't just have freckles I have Freckles. Obviously spending the summer in in the middle of TX, got quite a lot of sun. This lovely, jovial, redneck man took one look at me and said "Goddamn, son, you look like a pig farted on you through a screen door."

This was a decade ago, and I still have never gotten over the sickness of that burn.

"A pretty strong opinion..."

Giphy

(Heated discussion at an editorial meeting)

BRITISH REPORTER: "A pretty strong opinion from someone whose last book read was 'Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day.' "

AMERICAN REPORTER: "Hey man...At least I read the book. You waited for the movie. "

"Not heard..."

Old lady who was nasty to everyone and reveled in insulting and shaming relatives or friends and always got away with it coz no one ever dared tell her off.

OL to girl A: Wow! You gained weight. What a shame coz otherwise you'd be pretty.

OL to girl B: You're getting old. Why aren't you married? Can't find a date? Maybe something is wrong with you.

OL to me: You look tired. You should be... (I cut her off before she could finish)

Me to OL while giving her a hug: OMG! It's so good to see you! I didn't realize you were still alive!

She looked at me incensed but unable to speak and walked away. She didn't insult anyone else during that gathering.

"Pretty damn sure..."

My husband and I talking with some guy at a gay bar. Pretty damn sure we didn't know him from Adam. He insisted that we had met him in the past.

He says, "How can you not remember me?"

Hubs: "Don't take it personally, I've forgotten people far more memorable than you."

"There is this really old guy..."

There is this really old guy (in his 70s) and this really really annoying guy that work with me. One day the annoying guy ran off some where and the old guy in passing was like "Hell, if you gave him a crayon he'd probably eat it".

It was one of the best things I've heard someone say, his delivery made it better. He was just so over it.

"I was in a bodega..."

I was in a bodega with these terrifyingly popular looking teen girls, and one of them snapped at the other, "Ok, how about talk to me when your ankle socks match."

Like...the SPECIFICITY made me want to die just having received contact burn and I'm a fully grown woman with a baby and a mortgage.

Katie Couric Has Hilariously Shady 1-Word Response To Clip Of Melania Singing In Her Documentary

Finding great moments from the Melania Trump vanity project, her self-titled documentary, may prove difficult. Largely described as a $75 million dollar bribe—$45 million to make and $30 million to market—from Amazon's Jeff Bezos to MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, the film was a bomb at the box office and savaged by critics.

This was despite suspicious bulk ticket purchases during Melania's opening weekend and review bombing by Trump's MAGA minions to try to prop up the film that followed Melania Trump around as she tried to pick out clothes in the 20 days leading up to Trump's second inauguration.

An Older MAGA Voter's Rant About How Prices Are Going Up Due To Trump Is Getting Epically Skewered

Keith Pedersen, a senior Trump voter, went viral after sharing on Facebook his complaints about how prices for gas, groceries and other essentials are going up under President Trump—and has received some very unsympathetic responses.

In January, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins claimed that food prices were coming down, even as the Consumer Price Index shows grocery costs rose 0.7% in December. Beef, which Rollins elevated near the top of the food pyramid in the dietary guidelines she recently unveiled, increased 1% over the month and was up 16.4% compared with a year earlier.

Someone Hacked Crosswalks In Denver To Play Hilariously NSFW Anti-Trump Messages—And It's Brilliant

Hackers changed the messages on some newly-installed crosswalks in Denver, Colorado, to play messages criticizing President Donald Trump—to the delight of anti-Trumpers.

The crosswalk push-buttons were newly installed and “still bagged,” operating on factory settings that included a default password easily found online, according to Nancy Kuhn of the Denver Department of Transportation and Infrastructure. She said the password has now been changed and officials “don’t expect a repeat situation" at these locations.
