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)

Bit medical but there you go...
By way of background, my anaesthetist Chris does another list with a cardiothoracic surgeon who can get a bit stressed when it's all getting a bit bloody. One of the tactics is to artificially lower the blood pressure to allow the blood clot around the stiches at the end of the grafts to stabilise. Another would be to do a decent job of sewing them on in the first place.
Surgeon to Chris: "for fuck's sake, can't you do anything about this fucking bleeding?"
Chris:"Well, I could, but who'd keep him asleep while I scrubbed up?"

See where you said "Bit" at the start of that ... I don't think you meant "Bit".

Possibly, but if I'd said he was anastamosing the right IMA onto the LAD, then that would have been very medical..

My favourite aneasthetist to surgeon putdown.
New junior starts in theatres.
New junior is son of one of our consultants.
Surgeon proceeds to moan about said anaesthetic consultant for a while until junior pipes up with 'actually that's my dad you're talking about there'.
Surgeon is momentarily floored before saying 'ah well, I bet he's only got nice things to say about us surgeons, eh?'
The reply issued forth 'well actually he said the main thing to remember was that there's only two kinds of surgeon - bastards and slow bastards, so which one are you?'
