‘Mouth Breather’

Like yeah I don’t get this one. We all breathe through our mouths (and noses), because we have to. Yet I read this sometimes as it is used like an insult. So what are you saying? You’re insulting someone for doing what billions of other human beings have to do naturally?

      Hmmm, never thought of it that way. Makes sense. It would be the equivalent of calling someone a douche bag.
