Funny comeback: Hang on, I need to take this
"The (fill in the blank) called. They want their (blank) back" never loses. And is adaptable to just about any jab thrown your way. Personally, we're a fan of @generalgreviousdatingsim's "I need to take this call just hang on a second. It's the circus. They're asking for you. Apparently, they have a vacancy in clownery they think you'd be suited for." Knocks em' dead every time. Here are 75 more short jokes anyone can remember.
16 / 30
Funny comeback: Lean in, big guy
Another comeback that doesn't miss: "Oooh, you wanna kiss me so bad." If someone is angry—or obsessed—enough with you, the insinuation that they in fact harbor affection towards you is all it takes to tilt a power struggle back in your favor. A little reverse psychology can work wonders. In fact, here are 21 anti-jokes you can't help but laugh at anyway.
17 / 30
Funny comeback: Burn (or grill, or boil—microwave even)
"I heard a kid tell one of his classmates that they 'smell like hot dog water,'" shares one Buzzfeed contributor. A devastating blow to anyone who has ever experienced hot dog water, as well as hot dogs everywhere.
18 / 30
Funny comeback: Sorry not sorry, as they say
"This exchange happened accidentally between me and my boyfriend the other day and it's been legendary for us ever since: After making an honest mistake he said, 'Sorry I'm an idiot.' And I, wanting to reassure him but failing miserably, replied, 'Don't be sorry for who you are!'" shares another Buzzfeed contributor. Given the frequency of mock-sorrys in verbal squabbles, "don't be sorry for who you are" is definitely one to keep in your pocket. One of the funniest one-liners on the Internet, if you ask me.
19 / 30
Funny comeback: Be specific
From Reddit user VigorousRapscallion: "I was playing a drinking game that involves rules being made on the fly. We had a no swearing rule, and then an insult rule, which means they were G-rated insults. My friend is up and I'm the insultee and, without hesitation, she says, 'Your teeth aren't as white as they could be!' I was flabbergasted. The complete lack of hesitation combined with the specificity of the insult was devastating."

Funny comeback: Two thumbs down
"I accidentally cut someone off the other day and instead of flipping me off the guy gave me a big thumbs down out the window, and that hit harder," shares Reddit user C0L0RBLINDz.

This one might not be so universal, but whew, does Buzzfeed contributor hollisl4d528cac4 have one that'll stick in your mind.

Funny comeback: Let me draw you a picture
"I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain it to you" is another great one to keep in your pocket when someone is being willfully ignorant. Talk about a double whammy!
24 / 30
Funny comeback: Who now?
Take a page from Don Draper's book. In an episode of Mad Men, an adversarial colleague tells Don, "I feel bad for you." To which Don cooly replies, "I don't think about you at all." Ouch. I guess that's why they're so mad.
25 / 30
Funny comeback: Objection!
When a big-time lawyer rolls up on Erin Brockovich and blatantly challenges Brockovich's knowledge and abilities, Julia Roberts' character is quick to set her straight. The lawyer tries to save face with "I think we got off on the wrong foot here," and Brockovich quickly counters with "That's all you got lady, two wrong feet and ugly shoes." Save it for the next time someone is rude to you and tries to cry "wrong foot." This is definitely one of those movies with the best one-liners you'll want to say over and over.

Funny comeback: A pirate's life
Remember when Captain Jack Sparrow, under threat of capture and arrest, takes a moment to deliver a devastating zinger?

Funny comeback: Remember what?

28 / 30
Funny comeback: Can't argue with logic
"I'm not insulting you, I'm describing you." There is no greater punisher than objectivity sometimes, you know? It's one of those very clever jokes that make you sound smart.
29 / 30
Funny comeback: A new twist on an old jab
"Your face is fine but we'll have to put a bag over that personality." We would disintegrate on the spot if someone said this to us. This one is even better if you have a real bag to use as a prop.
30 / 30
Funny comeback: The nuclear route
"Don't worry about me. Worry about your eyebrows." And then watch this person's eyebrows bounce up in alarm. This one is total warfare—only use if peace is not an option.
