years ago I worked in a rehab centre for developmentally handicapped, (downes syndrome, cerebral palsy) The staff taught the clients to say 'go home' instead of other four letter insults so often you heard at the cafeteria, go home- no you go home no you go home... ONe of the nonverbal clients used a bliss board for communicating (bliss symbolics - was itself an interesting story - a symbolic language developed for world peace..) anyway since the board had no insult symbols, one lady came up with her own, 'go wash head in toilet'
