HUNDREDS OF CUTTING INSULTS & RUDE RETORTS FOR ALL OCCASIONS

ONE OF LIFE'S GREAT PLEASURES IS TO DELIVER THE PERFECT PUT-DOWN to someone who deserves it.  Unfortunately for most us, the opportunity to come up with a memorable zinger is usually missed; we think up a hot one-liner when the opportunity is long gone.  That is where this hilarious little book comes into its own.  You can learn from it.

It is a collection of classic insults, comebacks, taunts and what the author calls effronteries that are so good that they are worth recording for posterity.   How can you top Alan Bennett when he says: "She's so boring you fall asleep halfway through her name."  Bennett's dig is one of hundreds that had the crew of Mackie Books howling in glee among the bookshelves when they should have been pretending to be busy.

THIS IS A BRAND NEW BOOK AND THUS IN PRISTINE CONDITION.  It is small - but has a large collection of belly laughs. We think it would be a great gift for someone you want to cheer up.  The barbs were gathered by Lawrence Dorfman for this volume that is part of his Snark Handbook Series.  Other books include the topics of Politics and Government, Sex and Clichés.

A word of caution: the way things are today, be careful that you insult only those you know to be fairly civil people. If they lack humor, it's best to leave them alone in their own sadness.
