There are two
words in most cultures that will make a person forget that he or she is a
pacifist at heart and instead want to rip someone’s tongue out of their mouth.
These have been the ultimate fighting words since I can remember and I can’t
imagine that it will change any time soon.
I have never
encountered these words in a romance novel during a couple’s argument, but I’m
sure that if they were uttered the romance novel would end abruptly and it
would be changed to ‘chick lit’ because there would be no happy romantic
ending.
What are these two
words you ask with impatience? The two most insulting words in all of history
are:
Your
Mother (Enlish)
Yo Mama
(Slang)
Su
Mama (Spanish)
Wo Mama
(Twi)
I can see people nodding their heads as they read. No other
words need to be added to make the insult worse. We all love our mother’s so
much that any insult against her is like a quadruple insult against us because
she is where we came from.
Notice that we
never use ‘Your Daddy’ as an insult. It’s just not the same.
Am I wrong? Is there an insult that is greater than ‘Your
mother?’
