Long forgotten insults from my youth!

My brother and I can be quite childish when we're together and the other day during one of our childish moments I called him a 'tool', an insult I haven't used since I was in my teens! It got me thinking about other insults we used back then that we no longer say (or maybe teens still do and I just don't know it because I'm no longer a teen) - I recall 'wank stain' being one particular favourite Grin

Does anyone else have any old favourites they want to share? I think I've forgot most of the ones we used!

Chinny and chinny reckon were mine and my brothers favourite insults.

onedayonedaymaybe My cousin used to drive me up the wall with that one!

Also I'm rubber you're glue ... and then something about it bouncing off and sticking back on you?

Just remembered an elderly neighbour called me a scrubber once for popping into her garden to get a ball back - never hear that any more.Grin

Did anyone else just do the chin stroke for chinney reckon? With that withering look we all thought we'd mastered!

Did anyone else just do the chin stroke for chinney reckon? We used to sometimes just do the chin or we'd say with it 'chin chin' or 'itchy chin' never used chinny reckon or chinny.

You see that pile of festering dog poo over there? That's you that is.

Newman & Baddiel were popular in my early teenage years!

@MagicFajita ha! I see what you did there! In the end we would say ya mom but not even mean the other persons mom if that makes sense?!

Iknowwhoyouare123 · 19/08/2018 20:30

I laughed the other day having a nose at interviewees for our team when my colleague said 'the one in the middle looks a right spod' Grin took me back..

MarklesMerkin · 19/08/2018 20:30

And people don't really say prat, berk or twit anymore, do they? my mum still uses prat but haven't heard berk or twit for years ... or pillock for that matter. I love the word pillock!
