Pronunciation: in-sult-ant

Sentence: "I have spent many years honing my insulting skills, so your suggestion that I'm ripping you off is, well, it's an insult, an aspersion, an impertinence."

"Quite clearly she is excellent at her job, let's get her back next time."

terrible, useless word. I'm giving you my vote even though you don't deserve it! - galwaywegian, 2007-04-23: 06:46:00

Obviously, galwaywegian works for a very large, very successful, and very expensive insulting firm. So begrudgingly, I will follow his lead and proffer my two cents to petaj. - wordmeister, 2007-04-23: 10:08:00

Thanks for the reprehensible comments. Is that the best you can do in the way of profijeering. And you call yourselves scornstars! Hmmph. - petaj, 2007-04-23: 18:45:00

I agree with galwaywegian. Your word is a boil on the verbotobutt, a verbotocyst. My vote was just pity points, don't take it too seriously. - purpleartichokes, 2007-04-23: 19:23:00

Pronunciation: bar rak o wha ma

Sentence: Julie was a regular Barrackowhama. Her tongue was like a rapier, her wit was sardonic and her retorts were as snide as they were deadly quick. No one ever won a verbal victory over her. Her favourite soda was Spite, her favourite cocktail was a Stinger and she enjoyed holidaying in the Vitriolic Islands. When others were cutting back, she was affronting and her favourite actor was William Hurt. Her abuse knew no boundaries and no one was exempt from her derision. She loved being scurrilious and enjoyed driving her new car, a black Invective. She could vituberate better than any Marine drill sargent and always played offense when she played high school football. Yes, Julie could revile for hours and never tire of the insults she threw around contumely like seeds of grain to the wind. Luckily her new job would allow her to use her skills and be paid well for it. She starts next week with the UN Diplomatic Corps!

Etymology: barrack (laugh at with contempt and derision) & wham (hit hard) & of course Barack Obama (for rhyming fun)
