Devastating Put-DownsAmorous Badger says: I once saw a former manager of mine being asked to 'sit down and let your mouth have a chance to speak' by his senior. What's the best heckle/putdown/riposte you've ever seen? (Hint: Recycled 'Your mum' jokes does not make an answer)

Lost in the supermarketBack in my Sainsbury's days I was a lowly shelf-stacker working alongside two not-unattractive womanfriends in their late 30s, Jenny and June. I'd decided to grow a crap beard (it's your right once you hit 21 to try and grow face-fuzz) which I was rubbish at maintaining, sparse in some areas, thick and bristly in others. Jenny had started to call me Jesus because of this unsightly follicular growth.
After a few months of this, I finally came up with a good (well, acceptable) comeback - next time she called me Jesus I'd call her Mary (geddit?) - and looked forward to using it...
And lo, soon I walked past Jenny and June...
Jenny called out "How's it going, Jesus?"
"Fine thanks, how are you... Mary?"
There was a pause. Then June spoke.
"Mary, she ain't..."
