People talk a lot of smack on the internet, and when that happens on social media, then the rest of the world can be fortunate enough to be there to see the glory unfold. From devastating clapbacks to good-natured puns and every other type of delightfully witty reply, a Twitter account called Gems Of Replies is there to document it all - for our benefit.

You know that sensation so many of us get hours after a conversation or argument when we realize - “damn, I should’ve said [X] instead…”? Scrolling through this account is basically the opposite of that as you get to see every moment of glory where someone said exactly what needed to be said.

Aww, it's like a family cremation (please don't come after me, I just have a dark sense of humour - I don't even eat meat)

I doubt this very much. 75% of India still lives in villages and lives lives of hard labor. Only 11% of the population has a refrigerator. 35% can't read or write.

India does not rank higher than the U.S. in education. Where did you get that from?

Have you tried any other ones ? India is a very big country. My friend said they have a saying “ in India that every 100 miles the food and the language changes’ I think I only tried 5-6 different curries but apparently *most* of them don’t even taste like original Indian ones, as they were customised to our wimp tastebuds ;)

C'mon people. A list will only serve to agitate them. They honestly believe they're #1. It's not their fault hubris is in their DNA.

In protecting kids at school, pretty much every other country in the world is better than US. And healthcare, in many, many countries.

I bet the police there would actually do more than cower in the bushes if there was a school shooting.

Weddings, festivals, pets (How many Americans keep beloved elephants?), women's clothing, colors, extended family values, palaces, luxury trains, and - someone's already said this, but it bears repeating - food!

India receives the second-worst results worldwide in the Quality of Life Index (58th) — only ahead of Kuwait (59th) — and performs especially poorly in the Quality of the Environment subcategory (59th): 67% of expats rate the air quality negatively (vs. 20% globally), and more than half (54%) are unhappy with the water and sanitation infrastructure (vs. 12% globally). What is more, close to one in three expats (32%) are dissatisfied with the natural environment in the country (vs. 8% globally). A US American expat says that “environmental efforts are lacking”, and another one shares: “The pollution is a problem. Sometimes I go for weeks without being able to walk or run outdoors, so it is hard to find a substitute kind of exercise.”

India's population is about 1/3 of the entire world's population...so I would say breeding is something they definitely do better. Another would be religious freedom and acceptance...they definitely do a lot better at the tolerance and acceptance part.

If this is true then all they are protecting are the male children since females are not allowed to attend, or it is extremely difficult for them to attend school. (GOOGLE IT)

We love how obsessed you are with us. It's clear you're incredibly jealous but trying to hide behind a facade of contempt. It's pretty obvious and cute.

Usa does nothing right. They think they are the greatest. The only thing they are great at is showing other countries they aren't that bad, could be worse.

India reduced the number of people without access to toilets by 450 MILLION in just 4 years. Meanwhile the infrastructure of the USA continues to crumble to dust.

My life was going pretty well. But then suddenly I got pushed through a tiny cave. It was cold and bright on the other side. That's the day all my problems started

I think it depends on the context. My native language is almost dead because people gave English too much priority. Now only villagers and old, established families can speak purely in our language, everyone else tries to talk in as much English as possible.
