Wang Ba

A Chinese insult dating back to the Song dynasty. Literally translated to English as "tortoise", It has a more offensive nuance. Just as tortoises are slow, it is effectively calling someone slow to the extent that they wouldn't recognize it if their spouse was cheating on them.

Will: "Wang Ba!"
