Problem is nowadays most folk would not understand they are being insulted.
 
Oh, my. Quick witted insults always remind me of:

Mark Gastineau in the NY Jets locker room decides to punk a female reporter. He drops his towel and shakes what he’s got at her. He says, “What do you think of THIS?” She say, “It looks like a penis...only smaller.”

A government inspector was sent to the local hospital to make sure it was operating efficiently.

He noticed a nurse collecting the plastic center out of the empty bandage rolls and asked why .... she replied .... we save them and return them to Johnson and Johnson and for every 10 empties they give us 1 new roll of bandages free.

Why do you color the plaster casts on children ??? .... she replied .... we charge the parents $1 , the food coloring only costs 10 cents , and the children love it.

Why do you save the foreskins when you do a circumcision ??? ... she replied .... we mail them to the government and once a year , right about this time , they send us a complete prick.

A young Arab passes away and is excited to get to paradise where he is met by the gatekeeper

GATEKEEPER ..... welcome to paradise , we have 3 sections -Jews -Christians -Muslims so choose the one you want
ARAB ................ my Imam promised me 72 virgins would be waiting for me in paradise , so take me to them please
GATEKEEPER .... are you sure ?? ... it is not what you are expecting .... virgins are hard to find
ARAB ......... never mind the small details , I want my 72 virgins and the feast that was promised to me
GATEKEEPER .... very well , but you will not be able to change your mind afterwards.
ARAB ............. I will take my chances , I am too hungry and too horny to care about details
GATEKEEPER ..... very well , follow me

The ARAB is surprised when the GATEKEEPER unlocks the entrance to the Catholic section ..... he is led into a large building with multiple doors and above one door is a sign .... BANQUET HALL for FEASTING VIRGINS

ARAB ..... OK ..... it is fine with me if it is in the Christian section .... open the door and let me in please.

The Gatekeeper unlocks the door , the Arab steps in ... and finds the room is full of Elderly Roman Catholic Nuns feasting on Roast Pork

We know how to avoid controlled spaces...

I'll be honest, it took me a couple of tries to figure out that the brown rectangle was supposed to be a door, and that confused me a bit - have you ever seen a door with the doorknob in the center? I thought he was walking by a window shutter or something.
