The inestimable Derek Helt was kind enough to share with me the Lutheran Insulter, which wasted no time whatsoever in pointing out that I “…can say nothing but that it boomerangs on your own head and hits you so that you not only are blackened but are made to stagger as a drunkard.”
That’s from Martin Luther’s Against the Heavenly Prophets (1525), in case you were wondering.
