yiddish

bastard language of Hebrew and German, used because until recently the Hebrew language was not conducive to conversation. every word is filled with untranslatable connotations, which makes it an excellent swearing language. also holds the most potent insult in the world: paskudnyak

spoken often in New York without actual knowledge of meanings. Almost always heard in combination with English.

Classic yiddish words: shlep, schmuck, klutz, mensch, bagel, and the wonderful -nik nouns (beatnik, nogoodnik...)

The Muffin Gods

powerful beings who rule over this world. Their wrath may only be assuaged by the eating of many muffins. They have many emmisaries in this world, but their most powerful follower is the legendary Muffin Man.

Do you know the muffin man?

paskudnyak

Yiddish insult. THE most potent and offensive insult known to man. it has so much connotation that cannot be truly defined that the closest you can come to its meaning is "horrible person". no other definition has the meaning, and there is no way to convey how powerful that word is. Use with caution.

Hitler was a prime example of a paskudnyak. You'd be hard pressed to come up with others.
