Does your vocabulary need a jumpstart?
Never fear -- you can take advantage of the:
SHAKESPEARE INSULT KIT
3 columns of words from Shakespeare's plays and sonnets -- pick one from each, then combine for your own rude retort. Wasn't that easy?
My trial run came up with "Thou dankish beef-witted cankerblossom!" But I'm sure you can do better than that. Tease your friends -- stun your enemies! (And be sure to use it on your bratty little brother...even if he's 60.)
See what a good education will get you?
Combine one word from each of the three columns below,
prefaced with "Thou":

beslubbering beef-witted barnacle
