Best Comebacks
At some point we've all been insulted. What's the wittiest retort you've ever uttered leaving the antagonist lost for words? Share your wisdom so that we learn, and have a come back ready for every occasion.

My Dad
(not a retort in itself, btw) Anyhoo, my pa once told me of a conversation at his place of work which went like this:
Fireman 1 (oh yeah, my dad's a fireman): I won't be in tomorrow, boss, I'm going to a funeral.
Fireman 2: I'm sorry. Family was it?
Fireman 1: No, a friend.
Fireman 3 (thinking he was funny): I thought you didn't have any friends.
Fireman 1: I don't now.
Apparently it was done without thinking, and really embarrassed fireman 3, but now I type it, it seems apocryphal, really. Forget I mentioned it.
