People have been trying to match this creative 18th-century diss

A nursery rhyme from the mid-18th century shows that people knew how to throw an insult in the 1700s. It recently cropped up again on Reddit’s r/funny forum, where u/UncleKano91 posted it with this heading –

‘Diss tracks were savage in the 1700s’

That’s telling them!
