If Steve Martin ever runs out of material, he can always count on his three million Twitter followers for ideas.

On Sept. 28, the actor/comedian/banjo enthusiast tweeted that, during an argument, he called his agent a certain name: a “******kle.” A number of his followers replied with guesses as to what the insult may have been. Martin responded by retweeting some of the better names.
