Seriously, I don't live in the States or have much exposure to the subtle nuances aside from what one gets through the media and TV...I had some friends who taught in the UK for a couple of years and they mentioned that the ultimate insult was for a kid to say "your mum" to someone (presumably their teacher). Given that the friends in question had no context for it, it meant absolutely nothing and therefore had no effectiveness.
