How to INSULT somebody...like poetry!

So..i was at the library today..and i found this book
'DISCOVER YOUR GENIUS' by Micheal J. Gelb
Its about how to be a 'genius' (at least) like Einstein,Darwin,Shakespeare..and the like.
Very very very interesting book!

AND i found this one topic interesting :
TOP 10 SHAKESPEAREAN INSULTS

I dont remember all of them..BUT i took the liberty to google for more.
So here they are, for ur utmost pleasure and knowledge .. ;)

  1. Go thou to hell, and fill another room in hell! (a fancy form of go to hell!..haha)
  2. You are as a candle, the better part burnt out!
  3. Such a dish of skim milk... (this i not quite understand)
  4. She speaks yet she says nothing..! (this one i've heard often..huh!)
  5. Those horrible image doth unfix my hair and make my seated heart knock at my ribs.
  6. Out, you green-sickness carrion!Out, you baggage!
  7. She's the kitchen wench, and all grease ; and I know not what use to put her but to make a lamp of her and run her from her own light. I warrant, her rags and the tallow in them will burn a Poland winter. If she lives till doomsday, she'll burn a week longer than the whole world. (amboi2 marah sangat ke cik abg oi)
  8. Men are April when they woo, December when they wed. (true?)
  9. Out you mad headed ape. A weasel hath not such a deal of spleen as you are tossed with.
  10. What a caterwauling dost thou keep. (this one i toootally not understand 

Most of them sounds funny right??hehe
I'd laugh my heart out before i realize what it actually means..huhu

Well..These are only some of the Shakespearean insults, but how many out of 10 do u all understand and
would u laugh or frown if someone said them to u??
