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." And so ended another negotiation over the extortionate insultant fee. "And you smell like bag of rotten mussels", she yelled as she left the building. "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!

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.

Thanks for the reprehensible comments. Is that the best you can do in the way of profijeering. And you call yourselves scornstars! Hmmph.

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.
