Nope.

When you've been insulted, you've been insulted whether you know it or
not.

Sometimes it's even sweeter if don't understand the insult because that
shows off your stupidity.

The point of insulting someone is to annoy them.

---
So say you, but there are many more reasons than that to insult someone.
---

Like what?

---
Like to put them in their place, for one.
---

If I don't understand the insult, you haven't placed me anywhere.

---
Try to keep up, OK?

We're not talking about you and your disabilities, I was answering your
question about what insults can be used for.

Whether _you_ understand the insult is immaterial, since the fact
remains that an insult can be used to someone in their place.
---

If they don't understand the insult, you haven't put them in their place. Imagine insulting someone in another language.

If they don't understand the insult, you've achieved nothing.

---
Sure I have.

What I've achieved is discovering that your insight and intellectual
resources are insufficient to understand the insult and then to
retaliate.
---

What use is that?

---
It's a weapon I can use against you in the future.
---

Admittance of trolling noted.

---
I don't _admit_ to trolling, asshole, I REVEL in it.

Especially when I hook minnows, like you, pretending to be sharks.
---

Trolls are the lowest form of life. Nobody looks up to you.

You might aswell wait until someone is out of earshot then call him names.

---
You keep responding, so you're well within earshot, and you obviously
feel you have an emotional investment in the thread, otherwise you'd
just drop it.

So why do you keep responding?
---

To prevent you getting the last wod and gloating about it.

---
So it's OK for you to have the last word, but not for me?
---

Of course.

---
Well, that's a juicy little tidbit. Got any more?
---

You sad git.

If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.
