Reddit user Pristine-Ant-464 asked: 'What’s the most savage but unique insult you’ve heard of?'

Most of the time, when people feel the need to throw an insult at someone else, they don't give the insult they are about to throw much thought.

Often resorting to juvenile name-calling or similar.


Some people, however, make a point of choosing their words much more carefully, in an effort to ensure the person they're insulting feels almost literally "burned".

Most impressively, they tend to give these insults about the same amount of thought as someone who simply calls someone a "doo-doo head".

Redditor Pristine-Ant-464 was very curious to hear the most impressive insults ever uttered, leading them to ask:

"What’s the most savage but unique insult you’ve heard of?"

Some Things Need To Be Earned...

Then again, it's no secret that powerful words are often all it takes to make someone truly weak at the knees.
