What is a insultator?

The only time I ever heard the word "Insultator" was in an episode of Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction. In this episode, the Insultator is an electronic device a taxi driver installs in his cab that plays insults about people being "cheap" to passengers who don't tip, e.g., "Nice tip, you must be saving your money for a facelift." I Googled it and also discovered that it now appears to be a French app on iTunes that generates insults. Bizarre!
