Asshat / Asswipe / Asscrack / Taint

J-hole (unless somebody has one of those, nobody should be offended)

Fucker

Dumbass

Jerkwad (which some people might associate with a gender, but I don't) open to theories either way.

Slimey / Scum / Scumbucket

Twit

Norge (although Norwegians might be upset, this was an entirely made up word at the time) - essentially means Asscrack
