- Swearing at someone is great, but there are other ways to really insult someone
- Reddit users compiled a list of some of the best insults that are totally PG
- Check out more stories here
There are a lot of studies out there, friends. Pick up a subject and you best believe that you can find a study or two about it, ideally, one to back your thoughts and one to refute them. Case in point, there is a study out there that says that people who use profanity actually tend to have larger, more developed vocabularies than people who don’t use swear words. That study is 100% worth a read and if nothing else, good to share if you’re a parent and your parenting partner frequently takes issue with your liberal use of profanity around your kids. Little do they know, that you dropping an f-bomb in front of junior is actually for the best.
However, that’s not what I’m here to talk about today.
I’m here to talk about a beautiful thread over on AskReddit that even though it has since been archived, is no less relevant today. In this thread, people shared the worst insults they knew, have heard, or have used. But there’s a wonderful plot twist. All of these insults have the ability to cut a person to pieces in a matter of seconds yet shockingly, NONE of the insults listed contain profanity.
Settle down. It’s true.
Swear words sure as shit serve a good fucking purpose when hurling around bitchy insults, but what you’ll find below shows that they aren’t 100% necessary when completely destroying a person’s soul with the turn of a phrase.
So without further ado…
Here are the most savage insults you can say without swearing
Do you realize that people just tolerate you?
You’re not pretty enough to be this stupid.
Anyone who ever loved you was wrong.
If you were anymore inbred you would be a sandwich.
Now I know why everybody talks about you behind your back.
If I wanted to kill myself, I’d climb to your ego and jump to your IQ.
“I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you.”
Why are you the way that you are? I hate so much about the things you chose to be.
“He is one of those people who would be enormously improved by death.”

Why play so hard to get when you’re already so hard to want.
You coffin dodging oxygen thief.
You clearly have not been burdened by an overabundance of education.
