Mark Twain insulted everybody. He was incredible.
The great Missouri sage Mark Twain went after everybody: Congress, the French, Christians, school boards, mankind, the French.
(He liked insulting the French).
In honor of his 177th birthday today, we give you six of our very favorite Mark Twain disses.
Classic Twain Insult #6
“The average American may not know who his grandfather was. But the
American was, however, one degree better off than the average Frenchman
who, as a rule, was in considerable doubt as to who his father was.”
Classic Twain Insult #5
“In the first place, God made idiots. That was for practice. Then he made school boards.”
