The World's Least Powerful Man
I think my favorite one is "I dry my socks on your mother's tombstone."
Now everyone pat me on the back and tell me how clever I am!
I read that in the past, calling somebody a "dog" was considered pretty harsh.
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.
Cringe but free
I think they've used fuck in those days as well. An insult's an insult, especially maternal ones.
Honestly, it depends on where your story is set in. Bear in mind that even in the Anglosphere, English as we know it was almost entirely different from what we know today, resembling almost a German-influenced Gaelic language. The upper classes mostly spoke French and Latin, and together with German and Norse loan words, they were just about to merge with one another.
That said, try looking up some of those countries' insults, and take some liberties with it, though I highly doubt that society talks like in Game Of Thrones.

Basically, I'm looking for insults from as far back as the 1500's all the way up to the current time.
Things adults would say to each other, names kids would call each other, the works.
It's mainly for a wider variety of dialogue, so if anyone knows any good riffs, put them up here.
One Strip! One Strip!
