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)

Judging by the state of current 'contemporary music'It really wouldn't shock me if this was the new compositional technique of choice ;)

I know, you can't even understand the words can you?I'd hardly call this 'current contemporary music'. Take a listen at Webern or Schoenberg: 12 tone is no better.

To be fair..twelve tone is positively pleasant compared to the techniques for composition these days. I know a guy who composes based purely on mathematical equations.
I'm not sure if "I know, you can't even understand the words can you?" was supposed to be a jab at me or not? So maybe I don't understand the words (YOUR words). I'd like to point out that I didn't specify which composer I was considering currently contemporary. I was certainly not implying that Maxwell-Davies could be considered as currently cutting edge.. Just to clear that up.
