That sounds Québécois
This is especially French. In Quebec we have very different insults. Here we could for example say : Ostie de calisse de tabarnak de crisse d'épais de viarge. We can use some of those words as verbs too, like : M'en va t'en crisser une! Or m'en va t'en calisser une. It can also be positive like : ça c'est une calisse de bonne toune! Shouting a "Tabarnak!" Is very satisfying.
The main difference is that French insults are mainly centered around sex. In Quebec it's mainly around religion.
