    I am from England working in the USA. I have a lovely American lady here at work who tries to hurl insults at me every now and then for apparently no reason. Obviously, her insults are laughable as she can't quite get the pronunciation right. I have a suspicion that she is looking for some insults. Can someone suggest me how to put her on the right track?

      tell her she's a tart. She likes that.

                As to the topic - rub her feet. That usually makes them purr.

                                So, pick one (or more) of "toxic midget", "my little nest of vipers", "sabre-toothed tart", "my little piranha fish", "my little commandant" or (and this is my personal favourite) "rancorous, coiffured old sow."
