Worst thing you ever been called?

This one's funny because it was so insightful. One of those things in my past I can laugh at now but wanted to kill the guy who said it when it happened. When I was a kid I drank a lot to (try to) cover up a lot of inadequacies and self loathing I had about myself. A guy at work yelled over one time, "hey Ward, you long streak of misery!" I'm 6'7" so he was right on the money on both accounts.
... pretty risky insulting a guy who's 6'7".
 
Not so much insults, but we got some great bad reviews back in the early days of garageband.com. Ali Partovi is a (word that would get me a ban) for robbing the company and shutting it down. It was so much fun to participate there, and then have your stuff peer reviewed on that kind of scale.

My all time fav: "2 guys wank on strats while groove gets old"

Reactions: old spice
I was called a heathen yesterday by some little old lady in the grocery store.

How did she know???? :wideyed:
I've been called that too. I'm baptized as a Catholic, but I didn't go all the way with that, so I don't know how to explain myself.
Plus, the guy over the internet who was doing the name calling spelled it "Heathhen", which confused me, because a Heath Hen is a type of bird, and I like birds, so I dunno what he was trying to get at...
