Insults and inventions

Whenever Bright Eyes has a meltdown, I have to stop myself from giggling at his very original and inventive insults and verbal barbs that he aims at the object of his anger, usually at full volume. 

Today he was angry with his little brother and wished him ill with these words:

"He should get all the hair nits in the world."

"He should be eliminated from the family forever."

"I wish I could collect all the electrocutions in the world and electrocute him."

Hee hee. I am working to give him words for his feelings. He does repeat them, but quickly reverts to form with insults.
