Comebacks; We need them to survive society

Okay, we all know, (especially for us boys), that we need to defend ourselves. However, most of the time it is not from physical attacks.

The attacks are insults, and the defense is the comeback.

Now, not all comebacks should be "That's what she said" or "Your mom", you need some...
pizzazz.

-----

Example: Just a few hours ago my sister didn't want to get off this laptop (she's 18) and said that what she had to do was "important" for college. All she was doing was photoshopping a picture, and she thought that that had to do with her art aspireship.

When she got off, she said "This is for my career, and I hope you don't go into a job of watching Youtube videos"

My comeback: "Well, I hope you don't get into a job for being a jackass, and you've already got all the credentials!"

-----

Anyway, the point of this thread is to give the people who aren't good with comebacks some comeback ideas.

If you have a good comeback, for a common insult/situation, and please don't let it be "That's what she said", or "Your mom" unless it is REALLY good, then post that comeback.

So go ahead, post a comeback, I know people here have to have em'!

Examples. Comebacks applicated to nothing are useless.

I don't get insulted too often, to be honest. I'm just not a very insultable person...not saying I'm perfect, no one can pick out anything wrong with me or anything like that, but I'm a 115-pound, 5'9" eighteen year old majoring in linguistics who's very quiet, doesn't drink, and is generally pleasant. And when I'm not pleasant, I don't do it through insults, and I usually just end up worrying people rather than making them cross. So comebacks aren't really a necessity for me. I suppose if I was to be seriously insulted, I'd smile and nod. Seriously, that's the best thing to do, because it creeps the hell out of people.

"You must be friggin' gay, likes to touch little boys, amirite? Hawhawhaw!"
*smile, nod*

Who needs a comeback when you can break necks with your mind? Oh right, non-spellcasters. My mistake.


The problem with comebacks is that today's generation of bullies and scoundrels happen to be smarter than they used to be. One statement won't stop them; they have an answer for everything. In the end, they'll still come out on top.

The real defence is ignoring them, or even better just asking what their problem is and walking away before they have a chance to respond. And they will respond, believe me, and it will probably be some smarmy remark. Ignore that too.

Of course, you could just kneecap 'em with a longsword/shuriken/pistolbow/Magnum/firebolt spell, but there's a lot of paperwork involved in that sort of business. *is still filling out legal documents after incinerating his Grade 8 PE class*

Well when someone says, I don't know, "The *insert something here* called, they're running out of *insert something here*" the perfect come back is, "Yeah well the Jerk Store called, they're running out of you".

It seems like everyone (except Metallix) is getting the point of this thread wrong.

Just as it was said, this generation's bullies are smarter, and they know even if you act like you don't care, they should still be at you.

I personally, don't have any bully problem. But friends insult each other playfully, and you need a comeback!

Do people really read these?
A rather large curse in my life: My real name is Lance. LANCE! Do you know how unoriginal people can get insulting you with a name like that? Ninety-nine percent of it is just calling me Lancelot. >_> That's actually more like a compliment.
There was an exception, however. In my one of my classes, a girl said "I got Lance in my pants." as I walked by. To this, I replied: "In your dreams."

Simply say "What" With your eyebrow raised up, if she replies, reply with "Huuh" With the eyebrow raised up and shaking your head a bit..

She'll get annoyed and eventually get off after you pssed her off XD

Works for me all the time. School and home.

my brain works too slow to have a fast come back prepared, so for me, it usually happens like this:
-bully insults/asks hurtful question and laughs
-I respond several seconds later
-bully insults for my being slow to respond
sometimes i just don't respond at all because i know its too late... i need some combacks prepared

The best thing to do is insult the unoriginality of the joke say for example, someone says "you're a punk" (i get that a lot, huh i wonder why XD) Just say "Huh wow is that all your able to come up with? a personal attack against my sexual orientation?" (Except don't suck at it like myself :D) or say something completely unexpected

EXAMPLE
Bullie(s): You're a punk
You: Well not COMPLETELY!
Bullie(s): what?
you: what?

Gets em all the time ^_^

Most of the time the insults I get is so petty I always leaned back and smiled, thinking "why bother?" The last time I was insulted the insulter got a black eye. "I just pushed him, then he 'tripped' and felt to the floor." His 'friends' weren't too happy about it. Same results.

But if I ever DO get insults and trying to make a comeback, then I try to get them to say "what", then respond with "exactly" then just walk away. I at least you COULD get the satisfaction in making them seem stupid before leaving the conversation.

Example.
A: You're an idiot.
B: Like who your mom fell into a sewage, got pregnant as had you, while lying that you're your father child when you're actually some piece of sewage who may implode within the next 38 minutes?
A: ...wait, what?
B: exactly *walks away*

I believe my hair serves as a warning sign for those who insult me. The blood red colour goes well with a feirce glare to those who do get the balls to insult me...

Even then, most of my society just uses "your mom" jokes which aren't worth the effort to come up with a suitable comeback with. And the only other people who might insult me are chavs and I'd probably get stabbed after said insult.

If a bully deeply isnults you, then say something along the lines of "Nice inult, did your mum (ormom if you live in America) teach it you?" That really pisses them off and is a great way to walk away from a confrontation with all limbs intact.
