Amazing, 100% real human complaint according to a state of the art* AI detection method!
*: Ranked 2 on the google proxy I used, as the best SEO optimister just refused to return a result at all.

I found this in a dusty corner of my code archive, and it made me laugh, and thought it might do the same for others. I wrote this when I was first learning a fancy new language called "Javascript." Apologies for the juvenile humor. Sometimes NSFW.

Reading Damn Interesting every day, I had no idea. Someone used your insults on AOL, or something like that, repeatedly. Thank you for the laughs.

This is great! I remember being extremely impressed by Boris Johnson's "great supine protoplasmic invertebrate jellies" insult. How does one come up with such a string of words? I would've used this as a study resource.

The modern web seems to know nothing about it at this point, but back when CGI scripts were a new curiosity, there was a Shakespearean Insult Generator which was popular and quite a lot of fun.
I wrote a conversational insult generator in AppleSoft BASIC, inspired by a program called "Abuse" that I saw advertised in a magazine, and of course by Eliza.

I won't link it, here (the last time I did, it got flagged), but look up Guy Macon's Insult File.
Not a single word that would have tripped the content filters of the time.

I know we could easily code this by scraping but I would like to see an official REST API for this inspired service.

They have a nice ring and cadence. One could string some of them along into a Pythonic poem to be recited from castle tops.

So glad to see this preserved.
It was sad to discover zombocom finally died an undignified death earlier this year.

The domain was purchased and redesigned. It still exists but lost something ineffable in the process.
