What would sherlock say?

Which is a more effective/amusing/classy insult for a fanfiction dialogue?

Sherlock is mad at John for nearly getting himself killed.

John: "Why do I feel like I jumped off a building?"

Should Sherlock say

A. "That's because you did. You prefect, complete, total and utter fool"

or

B. "That's because you did. You incomprehensible, unparalleled, frankly exemplary idiot."

or

C. "That’s because you did, you mind-blowing, awe-inspiring, breathtakingly immaculate idiot."

or

D. "Because you did, you idiot."

or some combination there of?

Any better ideas?

Hi,

I think it'd depend on the context. In regard to BBC canon, he'd probably say "Because you did, you idiot." or something similar. If you are having them in a relationship, he might say something along the lines of options A or B, simply because he'll be a little more emotional about it, I'd guess.
