It’s hard to underestimate you
This is very powerfull because it has no slurs, polite, does jot compare you to something like a 8 years old insult and makes you think about for a moment. When the meaning sinks in you realize its power and it hurts.
Insults that compare you to something aren't that powerful.
Insults that describe you, like this one, have a great impact.
Holy shit, this is crushingly depressing. And wasn't even directed at me.
From a certain angle it could be a compliment. "I know how good you are, so I can't undersell you"
Use that angle when someone calls you out on this insult.
Nah man, this is a straight punch to the soul lol
