Waited too late to insult someone - A simple "you're stupid" is unsophisticated. "If (that person's) brains were made of dynamite they couldn't blow their
nose." - Mine From the movie "The Gauntlet". This is meant as a safe way to
vent. If you found a bit of humor, that's good too! (As are PetPeeves.) Created on 21 February 2024
Phrase: "pushing up daisies"
Means: "to be dead and buried"
Word: "excremate"
Means: "The act of excreting or shitting." (www.urbandictionary.com)
Word: "manure"
Means: Cattle excrement i.e. shit, more polite form for shit
The insult: "No need to excremate on the grave, he was so full of manure he
can push up sunflowers without help."
hint: daisies are about 14 inches tall, sunflowers can be 5 or 6 feet. And
manure is used as a fertilizer.
Word: stupid
Means: an adjective, having or showing a great lack of intelligence or common
sense.
Which should not be confused with -
Word: ignorant
Meaning: an adjective, lacking knowledge or awareness in general or uneducated
Benjamin Franklin on the subject:
“We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.”
Aristophanes on the subject:
"Ignorance can be cured, but stupidity is forever."
Me on the subject:
"Ignorance is easily cured, expending effort to remain ignorant is stupid."
The insult:
"My condolences on you permanent condition."
(would be completely obscure without lead-in statements)

Too short here! So,
"If (that person) had a brain, they'd take it out and play with it." - Unknown
Commissioner Blakelock to Detective Shockley:
"Now, can you handle it, or do I have to write it out in braille and shove
it up your ass?"
My interpretation:
Maybe you'll understand better if I write it and put closer to your brain. Since
you don't have eyes down there it will be in braille. (braille - An alphabet
of bumps that blind people read with their fingers.)
My less blue version:
"Must I make you a braille seat cover so you understand?"
