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)

I like to think I'm of the open-minded minority of the population. I enjoy learning, and when I encounter anyone who's religious beliefs differ to my own I often enjoy a good discussion about it.
However, I loathe being preached to, or having the God-botherers ram fire and brimstone down my throat. This day was not unlike most others, after all I live in Wales. It always rains, and excitement is a word that isn't often brought up in the local rags. I was walking down the highstreet in Bangor, when I happened to see a suited religious person heading my way.
Usually, my appearance, and the fact I enjoy crossing roads to avoid sales people (I know it's their job. I used to do it, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone) but this person was heading towards me like an unstoppable locomotive rammed with Christian joy(other religions are available). He barely had a chance to open his mouth, and I'll never know where my retort came from as I'm useless when it comes to clever and witty responses. Out it came "no thanks, I'm a satanist."

You're right, you are useless when it comes to clever and witty responses.

Tragically,
scarpe's response is a far better fit to this week's question, than this story.

The easiest way to deal with the Gouranga people
is just to pre-empt them by saying Gouranga first.
