{"product_id":"depraved-and-insulting-english-9780156011495","title":"Depraved and Insulting English","description":"Originally published as two distinct collections, \u003ci\u003eDepraved and Insulting English\u003c\/i\u003e brings to light the language's most offensive and obscene words--words that have fallen out of today's lexicon but will no doubt delight, amuse, and in some cases prove surprisingly useful. Who hasn't searched for the right word to describe a colleague's maschalephidrosis (runaway armpit perspiration) or a boss's pleonexia (insane greed)? And what better way is there to insult the scombroid landlord (resembling a mackerel) or that tumbrel of a brother-in-law (a person who is drunk to the point of vomiting) than by calling him by his rightful name? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A compact compendium of ingenious words for anyone who's been tongue-tied, flabbergasted, or dumbfounded, \u003ci\u003eDepraved and Insulting English\u003c\/i\u003e supplies the appropriate vocabulary for any occasion. Word lovers, chronic insulters, berayers, bescumbers, and bespewers need fear no more--finding the correct word to wow your friends or silence your enemies just got a whole lot easier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mariner Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/14\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780156011495\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.56h x 5.14w x 0.79d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePW Notes and Reprints\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/17\/2002 pg. 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2002 pg. 5\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/17\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/12\/2002\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Peter Novobatzky, Ammon Shea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36635007254684,"sku":"9780156011495","price":13.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_3889f7e1-b062-4278-afd2-581a66c2eba3.jpg?v=1603838273","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/depraved-and-insulting-english-9780156011495","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
