The PH insult/abuse directory
Discussion
One that I recall from being in the army about 20 to 25 years ago was simply...
Sheep's As in "get that Land Rover cleaned and handed back, and stop being such a sheep's..."
It was a shortened form of "Sheep's Ct" and used mainly when someone was being particularly inept and useless. It all but died out though, as 'old sweats' left and younger soldiers brought their own street slang and terms of abuse with them.
Another one I heard used to describe a particular "snowflake" soldier who was also a bit of a shirker was "clit". Because he was overly sensitive to criticism, and often really hard to find.

"Ambiwlans" is a definite PH insult.

I was at a customer meeting a few months back and going through some details on a vehicle build specification that used lots of abbreviations and acronyms.Interestingly enough I found this:

One of the guys asked "why can't they use plain English instead of all this jargon?"
Without missing a beat, the Quality Control guy said "It's Welsh you 'tard".
Three of us had trouble staying composed, but my Fleet director and another guy had no idea whatsoever of the reference and just looked confused.

Congratulations to 99.5% of you absolutley missing the point of this thread.
150 months here and most of what's on this thread must not only have pre-dated me, but been in use so long before I joined that they had already been and gone 12 years ago, because I've never seen them used on here except in this thread!JulianPH said:
