Choose your favourite Burns insults!
thou servile echo of fashionable barbarisms
thou faithful recorder of barbarous idiom
thou pickle-herring in the puppet-show of nonsense
thou persecutor of syllabication
thou executioner of construction
thou squeaking dissonance of cadence
thou carpenter, mortising the awkward joints of jarring sentences
thou arch-heretic in pronunciation
thou blacksmith, hammering the rivets of absurdity
thou marriage-maker between vowels and consonants, on the Gretna-green of caprice
thou pitch-pipe of affected emphasis
thou butcher, embruing thy hands in the bowels of orthography
thou brood of the speech-distracting builders of the Tower of Babel
thou eunuch of language
thou cobler, botching the flimsy socks of bombast oratory
