    After reading the threads on the best insult you heard and what was the most insulting thing someone has ever said to you etc it got me thinking.................

    What was the best comeback you had to an insult that was directed at you??

    I remember a rather portly comedian was heckled at a show a few yrs back(think it was on tv)

    Heckler - OI why are you so fat??
    Comedian - because every time I shag your mom she gives me a biscuit!!

    I creased over laughing at this. So dwellers of the after hours please enlighten us with your witty comebacks................

    I usually can't think of one until later.
    But no worries, I always make sure to add it when I retell the story to my mates ;)

    Not so much of a comeback , but a workmate of my dad was stopped for speeding on his motorcycle near the entrance to Baldonnel airbase years ago. The Garda had followed him in from the Naas road and asked him was he having trouble taking off ?

    Elderly neighbour always won 1st prize with his ponies at a local show. Then one year his pony came second so he decided to accost the judge;

    Old man: 'Why didn't my pony win?'
    Judge: 'His legs are too short'
    Old man: 'Too short?! Too short? How the f*** can they be too short? Sure don't they reach the ground!!'

    Working a bar I used to hear the same comments over and over. One that stood out was when I said the price the customer sometimes said "At least Dick Turpin wore a mask" so one day when a guy said that to me I just replied with "Dick Turpin was an amateur!"

    Winston Churchill has had a few good ones.

    Bessie Braddock MP: Winston your drunk!

    WC: Your right, Bessie. And you're ugly. But tomorrow morning I'll be sober. And you'll still be ugly.


    Unnamed MP: Mr Churchill, must you fall asleep while I'm speaking?

    WC: No, it's purely voluntary..

    Years ago I was in a slanging match with a twat who bumped into me in the pub and then proceeded to have a go at me for not watching where I was going despite the fact that I was standing still and he was the one walking past me. Anyway he started mouthing about this and that and then in reply to something I said (can't remember what it was) he came out with something along the lines of " yeah that's what your mother said when I was riding her last night" I replied "oh your the fella she was with last night, she was laughing about you all morning, she says she has never seem such a small penis and she's a maternity nurse and that you should have told her it was your first time and she would have gone gently on you" Everyone around burst out laughing and he skulked off into the crowd.

    Girlfriends brother never liked me very much, and once i was staying in her parents house for a family event. He arrived a day later than us, and it was a small house so id been given his bed the previous night. At the festivities the next day, he had a gang of mates around him. He called me over and proceeded to give me loads of grief in front of said mates, and then said "sure I'm only taking the piss outta you cos you're gay" . I said "if I were gay, I wouldnt have been banging your sister in your bed last night". He absolutely lost it and stormed off, it was beautiful.

    Best comeback I have seen in a long time, and probably will not see it's like again:

    Noel Fieldingdeals with a heckler.


    Man1: Are you gunna shave your head?

    Noel: Am I gunna shave my head? Yeah, I am, yeah, this is what this is about. This is a hairdressers. This is the Barbers preamble before he comes out and cuts my hair. There's four of them and were gunna do a fcking quartet then I'm gunna stab you in the eyes with the scissors.

    Man1: How do you put your trousers on?

    Noel: Huh?

    Man1: How do you put your trousers on?

    Noel: How do I put them on? Is that a trick question?

    Man1: Want me to show you?

    Noel: I put them in the fire, then come down the chimney. And then at night, I take them off again to fcuk your momma.

    Man1: Youre not very imaginative!

    Noel: Well I fck her in an imaginative way. I dress her up as a penguin and then set fire to her.

    My favourite:

    “Lady Nancy Astor: Winston, if you were my husband, I'd poison your tea.
    Churchill: Nancy, if I were your husband, I'd drink it.”

    You fight like a dairy farmer.

    In a battle of wits - you're half armed ;)

    Not sure if this can be topped:

    Like a Night Club in the morning, you’re the bitter end.
    Like a recently disinfected ****-house, you’re clean round the bend.
    You give me the horrors
    too bad to be true
    All of my tomorrow’s
    are lousy coz of you.
    You put the Shat in Shatter
    Put the Pain in Spain
    Your germs are splattered about
    Your face is just a stain

    You’re certainly no raver, commonly known as a drag.
    Do us all a favour, here... wear this polythene bag.

    You’re like a dose of scabies,
    I’ve got you under my skin.
    You make life a fairy tale... Grimm!

    People mention murder, the moment you arrive.
    I’d consider killing you if I thought you were alive.
    You’ve got this slippery quality,
    it makes me think of phlegm,
    and a dual personality
    I hate both of them.

    Your bad breath, vamps disease, destruction, and decay.
    Please, please, please, please, take yourself away.
    Like a death a birthday party,
    you ruin all the fun.
    Like a sucked and spat our smartie,
    you’re no use to anyone.
    Like the shadow of the guillotine
    on a dead consumptive’s face.
    Speaking as an outsider,
    what do you think of the human race

    You went to a progressive psychiatrist.
    He recommended suicide...
    before scratching your bad name off his list,
    and pointing the way outside.

    You hear laughter breaking through, it makes you want to fart.
    You’re heading for a breakdown,
    better pull yourself apart.

    Your dirty name gets passed about when something goes amiss.
    Your attitudes are platitudes,
    just make me wanna piss.

    What kind of creature bore you
    Was is some kind of bat
    They can’t find a good word for you,
    but I can...
    TWAT.

    Jo Brand walks on stage.
    Jo: "Hello, you're a nice little crowd"
    Heckler: "So are you!"

    Remember Jimmy Carr saying that one, it was in response to a heckler, cant remember what the heckler said, Jimmy's eventual response was "If you want my come back your gonna have to scrape it off your mums teeth"

    ****ing brilliant at the time, had me in stiches!

    I might have read it here about a bunch of street urchins shouting to a large lad 'hey fathead, why are you so fat'?

    'Coz everytime I ride yer ma, she gives me a sandwich', he said.

    A slag screaming at a woman in the local nightclub at the end of the night.

    Slag: I rode your boyfriend and he is sh*t in bed.
    Other woman: Suppose you'd know half the towns been up on ya.

    Slag walks off red faced, well it gave me a giggle anyway.
