I Wish I Would Have Said That (Best one liners after the fact)Clark and Cheri Flamingo dance!

I think we had this kind of thread before, one started by Britt, if I'm not mistaken. I too was floored by the lack of comeback-edness taking place around here.
One comeback I heard a woman use on a boorish man was, "Sir, my vagina right now is like a fax machine without paper." Took me a while to figure it out, but, damn, that comeback was funny.

Yes, staircase wit! I'm not sure I understand the fax machine reference, either.
A coworker mooned my mom and everyone anxiously waited for her reaction. She said and did nothing so someone finally asked her what she thought of it. She said "I hardly noticed, some people look the same coming or going."

The one that made the strongest impression on me @ 13 years of age - the following took place after some lady walked on the middle of our lawn blanket at an outdoor family concert in Houston, TX:
Mom: Excuse you.
Lady: Kiss my ass.
Mom: Well mark the spot, honey, cuz you're an ass all over.
HOOOOMG. My mother doesn't even ever say the word "shit." She says "shoot!" I couldn't believe she said that. My jaw must've fallen on the ground. I'm pretty sure that's when I decided my mom's an official bad ass.
Ha! Your mom must've had that one waiting in the wings, somehow. Holding it back for the right moment. Nobody can come up with a zinger that fast!

I've witnessed her doing it several times since then. She's crazy witty... I seriously think it's Cajun thing. Another one she said once to her boss who gave her a long list of priority items to do and had just handed her another assignment when Mom said, "If you shove a broomstick handle up my ass, I could sweep the floor for you, too." - boss was pretty cool... she laughed when Mom said that one to her and then turned around and sat down with her to go over the list to help her prioritize.

I've witnessed her doin..."
And to further my theory on her wit being a Cajun thing... Edwin edwards, former governor of Louisiana - he was full of 'em.

It's hard for me NOT to throw out a comeback, but I just cannot remember any at the moment. I guess they're not good after all. I do have a fallback one though.
Me: Well, good luck with your surgery.
Them: confused luck/ What?/Wtf are you talking about?! etc
Me: The one to remove your head from your ass. Have a good day.
Regarding the fax machine comment, I think what the woman was trying to say was the guy's sexist comment left her dry, as in "my vagina right now is very dry."
Okay, fuck it, I thought the comeback was hilarious. You had to be there.

I was so proud of my Auntie that day :)
I’m terrible with come backs. They’re usually just full of surprising curse words- things you wouldn’t expect a lady to say. It’s a sport for me.

I have a comeback for just about everything. Some of them actually make sense.
When you hang around with the same group of friends since junior high school, you get a lot of practice in unbridled, unfiltered, unfettered ball-busting. In my eyes, there's no other kind.

Amen to that.

LOL!! "Former" friend!"
Yes, well, that incident is why he's a former friend. *eye roll*
Just remembered another snappy comeback, this one from me.
Back when I used to smoke, I was enjoying an afternoon cig outside my office. Some cranky old bat was talking under her breath about something, directed at me. I asked her if she was talking to me (not in a Travis Bickle voice, BTW), and she said "you need to quit smokin' them cigarettes!"
I replied, "and you need to stop drinking crazy juice!" in the LOUDEST VOICE IMAGINABLE.
That woman suddenly ran. And I finished my smoke.

I was walking out of a bar near the art school on Saturday night, and passed a group of young men, one of whom had a giant set of silver antlers on his head. Twenty point buck, though probably not actually buck.
In any case, I was very pleased to be able to shout "Nice rack!" at him as I passed. His friends all cracked up.

Okay, fuck it, I thought the comebac..."
Let me try this one. "Sir, my vagina right now is like a fax machine without paper. Nothing is coming in or out."

Found this thread and wanted to share something my husband said years ago that makes me chuckle.
I had sent the poor man to the drugstore for. . . ummmm. . . feminine supplies, shall we say. He was understandably not happy about it, but I had the flu and so did both kids so he squared his shoulders and did what needed to be done.
On the way out of the store, he ran into the husband of a friend of mine.
Seeing the tampons in Ken's hand, Bill said, "You use those every month?"
"Yep," Ken replied without missing a beat. "I put one in each ear so I don't have to listen to her complain!"
I didn't think it was funny when he first recounted the story to me, but after 30 years of marriage, I think it's hilarious. It's the sort of comment most husbands can relate to, even if they can't admit it!

Right.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!
Too fucking funny. I think I would have cracked up even at the time he said it.

Would you like to introduce us? I'm sort of shy, quiet and unassuming.

Clark, Cheri. Cheri, Clark. I'll leave you two alone so you can get to know each other. Perhaps you were separated at birth?



Ollie's blackmailer: i don't care if you burn up!
i used to smoke, but i never was a militant either way. i quit because i kept getting pneumonia. i liked this quote because: 1. i'd have loved to say it, 2. it's got a snap to it that i've always enjoyed in jokes.

omg. i hope i remember this line and can use it too.

; )


You both have a similar way with words, is more what I was getting at. Although maybe you both can flamingo dance, as well. I myself dance like a dickcissel.

She thinks we're both mad-cow crazy.
To hell with cats. In a world where most of the population is starving, spending a few grand per year for the right to vacuum pet hair three times a week seems sort of self-indulgent.

I tend to be pretty good at comebacks. One time I was working with a group of server engineers who were fucking things up left and right. After I read them the riot act for about 15 minutes - this was all for a project I was managing, and their screw-ups were delaying the project's progress significantly - one of the engineers, a snot-nosed punk, piped up and informed me that I was not their boss, and I could not talk to them that way.
"If I were your boss," I replied, "I would be embarrassed to sign your checks." And then I hung up.
