Book Overview

"Classified by subject-- from 'Big Heads' through 'Nudists' to 'Squelches'-- this tongue-in-cheeck reference romp is guaranteed to put the right retort in the right head at the right time." --(Dr. Frederick Shroyer, Los Angeles Herald-Examiner) "When I am not rolling on the floor I am asking myself where Safian found all those insults to compile." --(Wes Lawrence, Cleveland Plain Dealer) "Ought to come in handy, sooner or later, for anybody." --(Chicago Daily News) "Too many bright sayings occur to us the day after they've needed. With this book you'll be fortified with a whole arsenal of remarks, ranging from mild to caustic, depending upon the need, to use in disposing of bores or squelching the quarrelsome and pompous." --(Sioux Falls Argus-Leader) "Here is an amazing anthology of insults and near-insults that should delight the heart of any sales manager who'd like to communicate with his salesman more forcefully-- or add zest to his speeches." --(The Sales Executive) "The most intriguing book of the year." --(Art Goodwin, WHEN-TV) "My girls have trouble remembering one jot of their homework. I'll bet they can recite that book from cover to cover." --(Jim Bishop, King Features Syndicate) "Just what the doctor ordered. Memorize enough of these and you can be the wit of the party."

GREAT BOOK!!!

if theres a bully at your school or anyone thats bothering you you can beat them up with words.This book is well organized and very long.It has insults for so many categories. Its a great gift

great to read, great to use

I discovered this book in my parents' library when I was in elementary school. After using a few choice examples in school, I was sent to the principal's office. Although she kept a straight face while reprimanding me, she never did return the book. Hopefully it made the schoolboard meetings a little more interesting. I just bought it for the second time.

Just when I had more enemies, I lost the book

This book makes Shakespeares insults look purile
