“Add insult to injury.”
What does it mean?
To further a loss with mockery or indignity; to worsen an unfavorable situation.
Where does it come from?
The phrase is an ancient one, even older than its often cited use in the Roman writer Phaedrus’s fable of the bald man and the fly. In English it was first recorded in 1748.
