Random information on the term “Taunt”:
An insult is an expression or statement (or sometimes behavior) which is disrespectful or scornful. Insults may be intentional or accidental.[1] An insult may be factual, but at the same time pejorative, such as the word “inbred”.[2]
Lacan considered insults a primary form of social interaction, central to the imaginary order – “a situation that is symbolised in the ‘Yah-boo, so are you’ of the transitivist quarrel, the original form of aggressive communication”.[clarification needed][3]
Erving Goffman points out that every “crack or remark set up the possibility of a counter-riposte, topper, or squelch, that is, a comeback”.[4] He cites the example of possible interchanges at a dance in a school gym:
Backhanding is referred to as slapping someone using the back of the hand instead of the palm—that is generally a symbolic, less forceful blow.[citation needed] Correspondingly, a backhanded (or left-handed) compliment, or asteism, is an insult that is disguised as, or accompanied by, a compliment, especially in situations where the belittling or condescension is intentional.[6]
