What's your favourite childish playground name to call people then?

You ‘Spaz’ is always good one, but ‘flod’ is a winner as its a cross between a flid and a spod so works on two levels

Lets hear the old classics then

You ‘Spaz’ is always good one

there was a kid at school who got called that a bit.

It tailed off a bit after people found he did actual have cerebral palsy.

spanner, tool, toilet (because you are full of ….)

Spactard.

mongtard

For one girl it was PissPlops but that was only because her surname was Hislop and it sounded similar.

It used to upset her no end 🙂

Flid and Joey were always faves as a kid

at the moment I’ve taken to using ‘bell end’

The last time I was in a school playground was 1970 so I think I would get an instant ban, and be ostracised by everybody who knows me if I even hinted at what we called people then.

Think Alf Garnett, Love thy Neighbour, On the Buses, Chubby Brown, Joey Deacon and Nick Griffin rolled into one.

We had a teacher with cerebral palsy who wore leg calipers. He was known by pupils and staff alike as Clank.

Spaz has always been a favourite although Pizzle comes out occassional (pun not intended)

Girlpants,remtard,arsehat,tube,giffer.

windowlicker

We also had Joey (as in Joey Deacon) and Remmies (remedial class)

Gibbon
Gimp
Unco

Goober.

sh!tl!cker.

We used to call people Henders. Hender was written on the side of the special bus.

Helmet was always a winner too.

Slight offence at ‘gibbon’….as it is my nickname 😐

I always laugh when soldiers on the Falklands used to call the locals “Stills”.

It started because they used to call them “Bennies” (Benny from Crossroads) but that was made a court-martialable offence. So they became “Stills” (Still Bennies).

Kids can be cruel… Why is it your nickname?

There was a girl called Fleabag at our school…I don’t think that was her real name.

She smelt of Weatabix.

I got sent to the remedial class for a while…I wonder if anyone called me a remmie. I wasn’t thick or anything…just not interested in school work.

“You see that festering mound of dog muck over there? That’s your mum that is.”

“joey!” whilst pulling ‘the face’

wazak

spacca

flid

lol at clank!

nob head

“You see that festering mound of dog muck over there? That’s your mum that is.”

Ah…the Fast Show era.

nice to see disabilities and birth defects etc aren’t on the radar of the STW moral guardians.

wonder how long before the thread gets reported and everyone is told off by a couple of forum members?

i’m not overly comfortable with it all having worked with several of the afflictions that these names refer to, but as a kid i was definitely guilty of using the word “flid” and others until it was pointed out to me what the words meant.

my favourite insult as a kid…. “des-o-conner” after i was told it was the worst swear-word in the world.

Shatpants

muppet. Simple and to the point.

‘Growbag’ tends to get good results. Not sure why but people find it offensive for some reason.

Ah…the Fast Show era.

Mary Whitehouse Experience IIRC.

circa 1983-86

Auntie Velma

or

just Velma

followed by a pushing forward of the tongue in your mouth under your bottom lip!

where it came from I have no idea to this day?
