To call you 'stupid' would be an insult to stupid people.

I'd put up a "Strong Language" advisory, but you know that going in, right? Right.

A man called the hero a "bastard". The hero replied, "In my case, an accident at birth, but in your case, you're a self-made man."

Posted by: reliapundit at July 2, 2010 2:09 PMThe biggest insult in a movie scene that I can recall involved no words. It was that scene in "Saving Private Ryan", where a German soldier and an American soldier are down to a hand-to-hand struggle with a bayonet in an upper room of a tower, while a second, cowardly American soldier (armed no less), waits outside, afraid to go in. The German prevails and exits the room and, seeing the second American sitting on the floor, weeping uncontrollably, does not even bother to kill him. He simply walks on by and leaves, ignoring the second American as being insignificant, inconsequential.
