People fight all the time, but not everyone does it with fists. Some draw the line earlier and use only their words. However, don't underestimate the damage they can inflict.

To show you that words can hurt just as much and, in many cases, even more than punches, we collected a list of the most brutal roasts we found online.

It's always impressive to meet a person who seems to find the perfect phrase to express themselves, and when they do it so quickly and accurately, it leaves absolutely no chance for a comeback.

    Such a dreadfully poor grasp of literature. Zeus, Chronos, Saturn - I doubt Capt America would be able to touch them. He'd almost certainly come off worst if he went up against Jerry Cornelius, and if he didn't run away from Elric of Melnibone, he'd wish he had. Shall I mention Mentor of Arisia? Jesse Custer imbued with the power of Genesis might be a bit tricky for him, too. Granny Weatherwax never lost against any opponent. Sparrowhawk - aka Ged - visited the borders of d3ath, and returned. Capt America? Not so much. Speaking of such things: how'd he fare about yer actual Judge D3ath, I wonder?
