In Scotland we had a feisty storm a few years back that we dubbed ‘Storm bawbag’ which is Scots for balls/testicles. Good times.

I still laugh every time I remember the red caps in Baldurs Gate 3 yelling "bawbag" at me when I made them mad.

I envy this particular skill! I don't really yell insults (I even drive silently!) But that particular one could have changed my mind!
