"Your mother was a hamster!" is pretty self-explanatory though.

But elderberries smell rather nice. Or at least the last elderberry jam I had was quite lovely. So that certainly makes for a confusing insult.

They made booze from elderberries. The insult translates to "Your mother is a whore and your father is a drunk"

Ohhhh... TIL!

I've had elderflower liquor (St. Germain is very nice) but not elderberry.

Good booze, in fact... I've had an elderberry wine and it was awesome
