You must be talking to Indonesians if they're telling you to do unspeakable things to female family members. I use to watch Kitboga, IRLrosie and another YouTube channel where the name of it escapes me at the moment.

For whatever reason, this is the must insulting phrases to say for Indonesians:

Madarchod means motherfucker

Behenchod means sisterfucker

Yes, spoofing numbers is a colossal problem, especially when someone is attempting to catch up on much needed sleep.
