Twerp

The word twerp has been classified as both parliamentary and unparliamentary language.

In 1956, the Speaker at the House of Commons ruled it an order because he assumed "it was a sort of technical term of the aviation industry".

It was later classified as unacceptable

"You are an absolute twerp!!"

No i am suggesting that your behaviour is absolutely unacceptable!!!
