"Thou art but a clay-brained peacock!"
Perhaps more along the lines of "You eye-offending sheep-biter!"
No judgement here. Just share and get it off your chest.

Worked as a grocery cashier.
A man, who worked another department, came through my line and said, "has anyone told you how pretty you look?". When I said no, he looked at his watch and said, "there is plenty of time for that to happen".
I couldn't stop laughing. He was always coming up with something.
I knew he was trying to make me laugh, he never fails.
Fat, pig, etc. I break down in tears every someone says that. I suffer low self esteem.
I'm so sorry, fat shaming is s**t and led (in part) to my eating disorder.
Your mother must have washed you with ultra downy.
Kids at school are trying to say I smell like cheese. B******T. I bathe everyday before school! (Sorry… i didnt mean to vent)
I dont know if it was meant to be an insult, but someone told me my sideberns were uneven the other day. I told them to shut the F up and get back to work before their paycheck is uneven.
As a person with psoriasis, I've dealing with insults for a long time now. The worst part of it is that most of the times, it comes from near ones. I don't care about what strangers say as they aren't a part of my life. But it really hurts when someone I value says or does something that implies as me being an 'untouchable'. That thing breaks me down to pieces.
I'm so sorry about that, sending hugs! but um, would you mind telling me what psoriasis is?
I was told I was hideous, and though it's not the technical worst insult I've ever received, it's the one that stuck with me. I was 10. And I'm still affected by it 5 years later. I can barely look at myself in the mirror some days.
You my say it but your not hideous and I don’t know what you look like. No human being is ugly and deserves to be loved. I can’t look in the mirror sometimes too. Know you are loved.
Once I was baking a cake, and my friend asked me what baking powder was for. I told her that it made the cake rise. They looked at the batter, then at me, and said "the only thing this is going to rise up from is the dead"
I could write a book on this subject, but a couple that stand out to me are:
- My ex calling me a 'f*****g r****d' because the pizza I ordered had pineapple on it.
He didn't want any pizza, so I ordered one for myself and our daughter; pizza comes and he changes his mind, has a slice of mine, and goes off on one.
- A guy from my old school was messaging me, and asked me on a date. I politely declined, and he said I was 'frigid', and that I 'wouldn't do it, even on date rape'.
Like tell me you're an incel without telling me you're an incel.
