Did you just not read the last part of my comment?

I don't go around chastising people for using those terms personally, I was just answering a question.

I'm with you on the being more creative with insults angle as well. It's good to get a bit poetic. Reducing it to intelligence also kinda lets the offending party off the hook.

Oh yeah for sure, I was on the bus when I typed that up but yes to elaborate more, it is reductive to dismiss awful people or ideas as simply a product of inferior intellect or cognitive malady.

Like I said, it's more fun to be creative with our insults.

People that arent awful but consistently make baffling choices are tougher. Generally thinking of co-workers here. Just being totally off base on things that could be figured out with incredibly basic logic, stuff I could have figured out as a 10 year old. Defending ass backwards innefieciencies to the death. Having no mind for logistics or priorities but not letting others delegate for you. There are occasions where its like HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU NOT ABLE TO FIGURE THIS OUT? Watch any episode of Kitchen Nightmares, this combination of arrogance and baffling incompetence isnt rare and i genuinely dont understand it in some situations. My chef thinks chickens predate eggs. And not just chicken eggs, he believes that evolution is cyclical. When it was just him and I when I came in one day where usually 2 other people are in and he leaves at the time, he didnt know what the deal was until he checked the schedule he made. He then went in to say one of my work homies has been scheduled for 5 that day 'for some reason'. My brother in christ, you make the schedule.
