I Have a Question.

Waffle.jpgWhat is a "twat waffle"?
What is twatty about this? ———>

Whose idea was that? What a weird thing to say. Slang is weird.

It's an improvement over the already used up "douche nozzle" (though, in fairnes, I did puke a little in my mouth when I first read it).

@4- the phrase, or variation on "I threw up in my mouth a little" is much more outdated than douche nozzle. So is "Wow. Just wow."

I always thought it was a panty liner. They often have quilting that looks vaguely waffle-like.

"Twat Waffle" first came to me via craig, cienna madrid's roommate, who whipped it out at the old CHAC lounge about three years ago. It was me, dave schmader and jake and some others, and poor darling craig was a little energetic and nervous and blurted out, "Wanna hear the new insult!? 'Twat waffle!'" and Jake said, "WHAT?" and he repeated, "TWAT WAFFLE!" and Jake gave him a look that would wither broccoli and said something to the effect of "Why would anyone say anything so fucking stupid?" or something, and craig kind of just contracted into himself like an oyster. (it was kind of sad.) but jake was right, as always, and i have not heard anyone dare utter those awful words again until this moment. TRUE STORY. i think.

The urbandictionary definition sheds little light as I have no idea what a defrosted waffle looks like nor a frosted one for that matter.

The Ricin letter was written by a twat waffle to the nth power.

It could also be the after effect of wearing fishnet stocking panties that are too tight.

Meaningless but fun to say. I think it's all in the wah-wah sound.

Repetition, consonance and rhyming are great conventions for slang insults you Turkey Tit!

@4: I could not possibly agree more.

When I was in high school the slang for vagina + baked good insults were all the rage. Annoyed the snot out of me, you cunt muffin.

@14 Bacon Balls?

Wait, on second thought that doesn't seem like much of an insult.

Doughy dick?
Peanut penis?
Scurrilous scrotum?

I thought it was a pussy after it had one of those suction pumps on it.

waffle can also be a verb.

Well tough titties, Lindy; sound and cadence have more of an impact in slang than boring old MEANING.

A twat waffle is what you make with fanny batter (where I grew up, the fanny was a girl's front bottom, not the back one)

This insult gets kicked around Jezebel frequently, along with "ShitWeasel".

@ Phenics:

"That Sarah Palin. Sheesh, Does that twat waffles!"

@25 - i had to throw those pants in the garbage, you know.

I would kill for a couple of those babies smothered in melted butter and Maple syrup with steak & hash browns on the side.

Where can I get the best crispy Beligan Waffles in Seattle?

I got more -- ballgargler, meatwhistle. I learned these just last week.

@13, my thoughts exactly.

A twat waffle is a pain, is what it is. You can't even make one without a twat waffle iron, and who has one of those? Twat pancakes are just a whole lot easier.

@ 13 & 29
Wouldn't that be a Waffle Twat instead?

Watch Your F*cking Language taught me a wonderful dysphemism for 'nothing' : cunt smoke. I love it.
