He may have insulted you, but not all insults constitute logical fallacies.

Ad hominem: You're wrong because you're an idiot.

Just an insult: You're an idiot because you're wrong.

Furthermore, concluding that somebody is wrong because they used a logical fallacy is itself a logical fallacy. If I said "2+2=4 because you're an idiot" my reasoning would be fallacious, but to conclude that the answer must therefore not be four is also fallacious.
