Biological mother: So many insulting things she's said over the years before I cut all ties to her... I'd have dumped her ass long long before that if it weren't for trying to keep a civil relationship because her parents (my grandparents) were really good people. It did get to a point where I decided that as much as I loved my Grandparents, I didn't need the stress of dealing with her any longer.

An ex-friend once mentioned how "anyone who didn't take calculus in high school is a moron" and when I called him out because I didn't take calculus, he more or less said that "yeah, you're a moron" which led to a huge falling out. Its funny too because I helped him with a lot of his calc homework that he didn't understand. But yeah, after that I pretty much got the hint that he thought most of his "friends" were intellectually beneath him and we all more or less dumped his ass as a friend soon after that. Saw him once when he came home from college, he was a burnout hippie at that point, high on hallucinogens 90% of the time and 2 steps away from losing his scholarships. What a moron.

Jokingly? One of my closest of friend's once told me that 'I've got a face only a mother could love'.
Idk, the timing of that line, the delivery and everything was just too brutal it was incredible.

Seriously? That I'd never be able to amount to anything in my life because I was too fat, had no street smarts and never will get one and couldn't speak my mother tongue properly by a relative when I was about 11-12 years old. Cried for a day when I heard that because I used to be a very VERY insecure kid.
That incident did help me get some thick skin though.

Jokingly, I've had a lot of people call me different things. 'Cripple' was a nickname for the longest time and it gets some funny looks from other people.

Serious insults? Some I wouldn't say are insults in themselves but insulting. I'm a quiet person, keep to myself and really only interact with a very small social circle. I can be outgoing when needbe, but it's very tiring. Anyways, was working on stuff in class one day with a substitute. Had a scribe in the class because my writing is slow and cramps my hand. Substitute teacher goes up to my scribe and quietly asks if the work is going to be too hard for me to do.

Could have at least asked me directly, but oh well.

Another one would be a former best friend of mine, despite being gay ran off with my girlfriend at the time on some whirlwind romance. He then has the gall to tell me that I was never a good friend to him. Having thought of him like a brother for years and years it wounded me exceptionally deep on top of stealing my girl and lying about being gay.

Oh, there was also an ex girlfriend who said she felt really gross if I touched her, and that my disability made her uncomfortable. Then runs off with another guy. Out of nowhere mind you.

I think I've grown wary of intimacy.

"Just get laid already".

Ahh, fun times.
My mother said this and probably laments the fact that I'm a horribly socially inept person with a weird gender identity. She also said "why couldn't you just be normal?" That stung. She probably didn't mean it to knock me down though.

Jeez all of the depressing stories of verbal abuse on this forum makes me realize just how good my childhood was. I mean I was bullied, but never as badly as some of the examples here.

Now worse insult I have ever received? Semi-Joking and Semi-Serious, I was chatting and being my generally annoying self when somebody who had enough of my incessant chatter basically said "I don't give a fuck" in such a brutal manner that I just shutup and walked away.

I've been jokingly called a c**t by my friends [a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRz8FWPUmpI&channel=thejuicemedia"](Australian thing)[/a]
I've been seriously called a c**t by my father (my father's piece of shit)

Serious worst insult from my mum, she said I was "boring" just cos I had small number of friends and I wasn't as outgoing like my brother is. (Pretty much viewing me as the bad sterotype nerd.)
I take pride just the way I am. Yes it is ture but I NEVER view my lifestyle as a bad thing! My friends are quality over quantity (they are the people who support me when I'm down and needed support and also the ones I would sacriface my life for) and sure I may be indoor but at least I'm not out getting drunk damaging my liver or getting mugged somewhere. I played it safe!
I'm just fed up that they don't accept me just the way I am and trying to force their images onto me.

As for joking, I don't got one from my family but I do got one from a mate.
Years ago when it's Christmas break from Uni and I was waited fourty minutes for my parent to arrived and picked me up. They eventually arrived saying they went grocery shopping first. I told my recent event to my mate and he jokely say they were stocking up on food supply for me.
I was kind of shocked by his insult but it wasn't because I was offended, in fact I thought it was funny (I guess this doesn't count as a worst, more like best) coming from him (he doesn't make jokes) seeing I am the glutton out of my group. I pretty much say touche to him.

I read this thread, went upstairs, and thanked my mom for being a good parent.
Jokingly, too many to recall. I have a...questionable friend that throws around insults a lot.
At my first job, my boss called me a stupid, dispensable, worthless piece of shit.
And that's about it. It's not often I think I have it really good, but damn.

My mum has called me practically everything at one point or another. I've been called "an ungrateful little shit" keep in mind this was completely unprovoked and I have never been ungrateful, I've never had a "teenager" stage."you're fucking retarded, it's embarrassing to take you anywhere" because I didn't talk with enough people at a party (probably because I was so ill I had to dig pus and blood out of my eyes every morning for years and I wasn't feeling sociable) and lots of other assertions about "you don't love me" and "I think I must have brought you up wrong". Of course just because I was so ill I was perpetually in a state worse than death doesn't mean she shouldn't get drunk every night and insult my cripple ass.

Coincidentally once I got better years later now she never talks to me like that. It's almost like she's a coward who won't beat down somebody who can fight back. Good news is I'm very good at pretending to like people so we get along quite well now.

Of course, that doesn't even begin to compare to the shit that I give myself when I'm alone. I never give myself credit for anything that anyone else would consider good simply because the only thing running through my head when I complete the task is "Someone else would have done it better."
I know that feeling. All too well. Everyone has that "inner critic", but mine goes off all the time as soon as I do something. I write a song lyric that, at first, doens't sound too bad, and then comes the critic and says "What the hell are you doing? You think this is good?!".

OT: It's not nearly as bad as some of the ones on here, but...

"No wonder you don't have any friends - You're always so fucking moody!"

Middle school. One of my best friends. Who suddenly had this tendency to treat me like shit. I was bullied in middle school, and this is what she said after I'd been harassed during an entire secondary school trip.

She then proceeded to whine about having to sit next to a guy she didn't like on the bus home. I still wonder what would've happened if I hadn't had any constraint and just slapped her shit then and there.

I don?t know if you can call it an insult, but before leaving us to start another family (among many other things), my father told my mother, ?Those children are yours, not mine; they?re not my problem anymore?.

As for my friends, they basically bullied me from the age of 13 to 17 (which is when they left sixth-form and, surprisingly, they admitted they?d been absolute dicks to me, singling me out for my race, personality, clothes, comparative lack of success with girls, etc., and now we?re more friends despite barely seeing them outside the odd party). I think, when I was telling one of them about how depressed I felt and the reasons why, all he replied, ?Wow. Your life is pretty shit, isn?t it? I would hate to be you.? And due to my crippling lack of self-esteem at the time, all I replied was, ?You?re right.?

Jokingly, too many to remember.

Seriously... One I take very serious, even though most people wouldn't think of it that way is "Red" because I have red hair & calling me red is so fucking original. Oddly I don't mind being called ginger.

Was called demon spawn once, I took that as a compliment.

I had an employer that for some stupid reason couldn't remember my name & called me "Boy". My name is Mike, how difficult is Mike & the company only had 5 other employees. I really hate that senile old woman.

Worst one I've gotten was from an aunt. "You're just a stupid child who doesn't understand how the world works". I was 25 at the time.

Here's the context:
Me: Look, all I'm saying is that I think it's kind of dumb that we're giving oil companies massive subsidies when they're the most profitable companies in the world.
Aunt: But it costs so much money to drill that oil! They NEED the subsidies or they can't drill and the economy falls apart!
Me: Again, they make more in profits than any other industry in the world. You're telling me that if we don't give them even more money to do their insanely profitable jobs, they're just going to leave the oil there and not drill for it, even when they already have all the facilities set up in that area?
Aunt: YES!
Me: ...Seriously?
Aunt: You're just a stupid child who doesn't understand how the world works!
Me: *slowly facepalms* I think we're done with this conversation...

I never discuss anything remotely political with this aunt and uncle anymore. >_>

At one of the darkest points in my life, I went to my mother for emotional support (we're pretty close), my mother told me "I wish you'd change your attitude!"

Thanks mom, depressed people can't just change their attitude like it's a switch. It's not a traditional insult, but it hurt like nothing else anyone has ever said to me, and I'm reluctant to confide in her when I'm feeling down anymore.

I do think she regretted it a week later though, when in casual conversation I compared telling a depressed person to "change your attitude" is like telling a person with a broken leg to "walk it off".


Jokingly, my friends are always making short jokes [footnote]because I'm short[/footnote], they call me a "little ball of rage" and insinuate that one day I'm going to snap and hurt one of my co-workers.[footnote]This would imply I'm a negative person, I'm actually not a very negative person in most aspects of my life, but I am quiet, not very social in a family of social butterflies, and there are things that I have little tolerance for (like the laziness of my co-workers specifically) and I'm blunt and straightforward when someone pisses me off.[/footnote]

Don't tell a person who decided not to kill themselves and power through their hardships the day before that their life "is easy" and that they're "pathetic" for not getting everything right right out of high school... You know... just a friendly service announcement.

Wow, it seems like a lot of us have been through stuff. For those of you who haven't, you're lucky, same as those With really nice families. And another insult that was pretty bad was a former friend telling me the only reason a girl would be into me was money... while I was dating a girl who loved me for me xD

I helped my dad clean out the shed once when I was eight, and he called me a pussy for brushing a cobweb off my shoulder. Our relationship has improved a lot since then though.

As far as jokingly, too many to count. All in good fun of course!
