--- Quote from: sudodds on December 01, 2017, 01:50:23 pm ---see the thing is is that actually doesn't work as a very effective insult. You tried to make a comment as to the nature of my username garnering a misplaced emphasis on the "d" after "sud", as if that should be one syllable, when rather, it is actually the beginning of the next syllable. To create an effective pun, you would want to focus the "laundry" element at the beginning of the insult, which you did, however adding "suds" renders it not only no longer a pun and less obviously me whom you are referring too, but also not my username in any form, as "suds" is actually not featured within my username at all.
An effective pun would be to call me "laundrydodds", so it was still clear that it was me whom you were referring to, however, even then, it is quite weak, and potentially becomes more confusing, as many do realise that the username is not actually pronounced "SUDodds" but rather "SUdodds" (Soo-dodds). You could have maybe said "soapydodds", which is a bit more effective, as is clearly referencing the sud-sy nature, while also conforming to the starting letter of my username. However overall, "soapsudodds" would have been the most effective at driving your point across.
Please try harder next time :)
