This is a question Devastating Put-Downs

Amorous 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)

Oh...I don't care about people being know-it-alls...
that's fine. You can be as much of a know-it-all as you like. Fill your boots. If you know stuff, flaunt your knowledge. But don't act like you know something when you don't. That really grinds my gears.

And anyway, I didn't 'lead him on'. I didn't intentionally throw that out so I could be a twat to someone. I made a jokey comment about something I assumed was so obvious that the joke worked, and apparently it didn't come off so well. I admit it was a cunty reply, but it wasn't on purpose.

Imagine going on a sailing trip, and jokingly saying, "let's not go too far, in case we fall off the edge!" and someone turns to you and informs you that the Earth's actually round, after genuinely thinking you thought it was flat. In my head it was that absurd.
