Feature Friday: The Greatest Literary Insults

I know... from Power Rangers to Pride & Prejudice to Literary Insults... this week's posts have been all over the map.  These insults are too awesome not to share though.  Click over to The Guardian for the full list, but be warned that there is some strong language in a few of them.  Hope this makes you smile.  :)
