Starting now I'm going to refer to stories about stupid people as anecdolts.
Wouldn't an anecdolt be someone who thinks anecdotes prove their point?
You'd think so, but I'm reminded of a story that demonstrates otherwise....
No, you're right -- I like your definition better.
since we have had a complete definition of 'dolt' , can u please furnish us poor eejits with a complete definition of 'dickhead' 
Can we stop pretending that we enjoy being insulted?
We're insulted that you believe we're pretending!
We are the nuts and dolts that hold this site together - we deserve a little more respect.

An insult is in the eye of the beholder.

i can't give you "dickhead" but this will have to do:
[A playful alteration of Ric-, contraction of Norman Fr. and Anglo-Norman Ricard, L. Ricardus = Richard.]
1. a. A familiar pet-form of the common Christian name Richard. Hence generically (like Jack) = fellow, lad, man, especially with alliterating adjectives, as desperate, dainty, dapper, dirty. Tom, Dick and Harry: any three (or more) representatives of the populace taken at random; see also TOM n. 1a; clever Dick: a clever or smart person; usu. ironical: a ‘know-all’; also attrib.
b. Rarely applied to a female.
2. dial. or local. (See quots.)
4. Phr. and Comb. (chiefly dial. or local.) Dick-a-dilver, the periwinkle. Dick-a-Tuesday, a will-o'-the-wisp. Dick-ass, a jack-ass. Dick-dunnock, a local name of the hedge-sparrow. dick-head coarse slang, (a) the glans penis; (b) transf., esp. a stupid person. Also long-tailed Dick, the long-tailed titmouse.
but haven't we all been at one time or anotherhaven't we all woken up the next mornin' an' gone ‘oh Jesus, did I do that’?

Not true, but even if you say what you mean, it's only half of it. Whether a statement is taken as an insult is in the eye of the beholder. Whether a statement is intended as an insult is in the eye of the, uh, counterparty?

LOL! Love it.

it could be worse: scrabble.com doesn't even have a computer version to play against on its website!!
see ya at the bingo!
I feel compelled to let you all know that I've read all 13 pages of this thread, and, while a complete waste of time, it was pretty entertaining (and paradoxically not a complete waste of time, you might say).
Now, if I could just learn to play chess...
Well I guess I shouldnt say my name is Dick where as my legal name is Richard...oops too much info now I can be tracked down and who knows what will happen!Darn that Chess.com splattering my business all over the ether.
Well, I can find the addresses and telephone numbers of two people with your own full name in your town with a quick Google search taking, literally, ten seconds. I imagine you are one of them, and GeoIP information could confirm which, so that shows it's at least possible. If you aren't, the point stands that many people can be tracked with private information, and you just don't happen to be amongst them.

My perspective is this: suppose someone is rewarded with a backhanded comment but they don't take it as an insult and they feel good about it, is it, in fact, an insult?
I say no.
If mockery fails in the forums, does it make a sound?
me likes insults - it always good excuse to punch 'em on the nose

Yes - most often in the form of a groan.
I agree with you NrthrnKnght on this one, this whole thing is bs about the location thing, first of all I did a little expreiment here if i say international the balloon put me in the middle of the desert ! actually near the word " Australia", if I type "Perth" the balloon appear in the middle of the city also near the word "Perth" I lived !5min drive from the city and finally when I type "Applecross" where I used to lived 13yrs ago, the balloon appear near the word Applecross (impressive) and I haven't moved my laptop at all !
North Germany, the land of schnapps, and insolence, and dolt stupidity.
So that's where it all started!
