simple thesaurus search
dani, (the guy sitting across from me finishing his master thesis) just ran a search on synonyms for 'simple'. he was a bit surprised at the results. it's such a great list of insults that i just had to check it out:
dimwit, doofus, nitwit, half-wit - a stupid incompetent person
dingbat - a silly empty-headed person; "you would be a dingbat even to try it"; "yet here he was with an upper class dingbat who just happened to be married to his sister"
boob, booby, pinhead, dope, dumbbell, dummy - an ignorant or foolish person
fool, muggins, saphead, tomfool, sap - a person who lacks good judgment
changeling, cretin, half-wit, idiot, imbecile, moron, retard - a person of subnormal intelligence
i particularly like the second example usage for dingbat. wtf?
check out the full list at the free dictionary :-)

I moderate comments, so they won't appear straight away. PLEASE don't leave ten versions of the same comment... ;-)
