Tiny-Brained Wipers of other People's Bottoms

Do you remember that line from Monty Python's 'The Holy Grail'? Where the French knights are hurling insults at King Arthur's knights? "I blow my nose at you... I fart in your general direction..." I always thought that referring to someone as a "tiny-brained wiper of other people's bottoms" was a great insult until I took up potty training for 3-year old twins. :-) Jokes aside, it's gone very well with the exception of the occasional argument over whether or not trying to go is a good idea.
