The Shakespeare Insult Kit
January 22, 2008
Today's world is moving at record speed. And sometimes you simply don't have time to come up with insults worthy of your razor-sharp sardonic wit.
What's a busy wag to do?
Simple. Print off a copy of today's very lightweight text-only website and keep it handy the next time the need arises to insult someone in a Shakespearean fashion.
It's called the Shakespeare Insult Kit, and here's how it works:
You have three columns. The first two are adjectives, the last nouns. Begin with "Thou" and select one insult from each column.
Examples:
Thou mammering, ill-nurtured pigeon-egg!
Thou yeasty, shard-borne whey-face!
Thou pribbling, toad-spotted malt-worm!
Easy, huh? Have fun . . .

Hi there!
I see that you have utilized my "Shakespearean Insult Generator" on your website.
As I hold the copyright to this, if you would like to continue using it, please cite the fact that this was my original work (see http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Lofts/4900/fun.htm for an example of how this has been done, though I would prefer "© Sandy Shepard. All Rights Reserved" instead of using © Sheena Shepard Gunn (my Ren Faire name, which I don't use as much any more) ). Thank you.
Sincerely,
Sandy Shepard, Esq.
