Heard a guy respond to another guy calling him a motherfucker with 'yeah, but your mom didn't complain much', so it got me thinking. What are your best comebacks for the common insults you hear from time to time?

Generally, “if that’s all you have, you’re going to have to do better.”

You're clearly not burdened by an abundance of education.

"You're disappointing."

And walk away. You have to sell the don't care attitude though. If you blush or something then this won't work.

Miss me with this pussy shit, bitches!

You need to punch up your comeback game? I gotchu!

Someone called you a motherfucker? "I found out yo momma so UGLEE her blowjobs count as anal. And she LOOOVES giving me "anal"."

Someone called you a rebel without a cause? "At least I'm not a faggot without a dick."

Some comebacks that work for almost anything:

Did you think of that YOURSELF, Einstein?
You're dumber than you look.
You're not the brightest bulb in the pack, are you?
You're not the sharpest knife in the drawer, are you?
Did your mommy tell you to say that?
Are you always an asshole or only on Fridays?
Are you sure you know what all those words mean?
I’ve been called worse by better.
You go out in public with that face?
Your village called – they want their idiot back.
You’ll never be the man your mom is.
Which circus did you escape from?
Which zoo did you escape from?
Which ape cage did you escape from?
Your ass must be pretty jealous of all the shit that comes out of your mouth.
Grab a straw, because you suck.
I don’t have the time or the crayons to explain.
If you were a spice, you’d be flour.
It’d be awesome if you used glue instead of Chapstick.
