You're gorram right.

Could've been worse. Could've been a shooting game.

I knew about the honor-culture bit, but I'm now curious about what other languages use it as an insult.

I actually might be able to provide some insight to this. My wife is Balkan and the first time I called her a "Silly Goose" she became madly upset. It turns out in her language the phrase "Glupova Gusko" (Stupid Goose) is a common insult. It is considered incredibly harsh in her culture. My guess is that the phrase "Silly Goose" is borrowed from a Slavic Language and lost its harshness when it moved into English.

These fall under the category of "Half-baked Idea". This includes any idea that obviously hasn't been thought all the way through. Half-baked ideas can range from the absurd (e.g. "The Earth is flat."), to the benignly optimistic (e.g. "Everything works out for the best.")

Depends on which philosophy you ascribe to I suppose. While standard Judeo-Christian philosophy would most likely dismiss the notion of divine orangutans, I for one would posit that orangutans by thier very nature are divine and that humans may in fact be the only creatures on the planet that must struggle toward divinity.
