Moron (pronounced moor-AHN) as used by Bostonians. Perfect combination of dismissive and derisive, flexible enough to be used in a variety of situations, from arguing with friends all the way to screaming at the car that nearly ran you over. Often modified with fucking, as in, “Hey, you fucking moron, watch where you’re going.” Now I know that moron is prevalent throughout the country, and fairly tame in most circles. But if you’ve ever been called a fucking moron by a Bostonian, you know exactly what I mean.
