A few more, all intended to insult, not sure of the source:
* I'd love to have a battle of wits with you, but you're unarmed. * I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce. * I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public. * It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying. * You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers. * I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you. * I'm trying to imagine you with a personality. * If I throw a stick, will you leave? * Is that your final answer, or are you still hoping a brain will grow at the end of your spinal cord? |
