You know the feeling. You get into an argument with someone, the two of you are going at each other back and forth, and they get you so riled up that you suddenly can't think of a good comeback until long after the fight is over.

There's actually a French term for this called l'esprit de l'escalier. It describes the feeling you get when you come up with the perfect reply after the fact.

We've all been there. It's devastating.

So let's take a moment and pay our respects to and celebrate the really good comebacks—the ultimate expressions of wit and cleverness. Taken from the appropriately titled subreddit r/MurderedByWords, here are some of the best ways people have ended their disagreements.

I work out a lot. Anytime there is free time in my day. It helps my severe anxiety and ptsd. Biking, walking, yoga... I'll do it anywhere. I wear leggings or yoga shorts and tank tops or hoodies 90% of the time for this reason. I've been hit on so much its insane. Followed. Grabbed. Looked at nastily by older women and if they're with a man, they pull them closer. I'm not seeking attention. It's comfortable to me. Why can't people just let others live?? Very frustrating. Just bc my pants are tight or my arms are exposed, I'm not interested in you. Same goes for everyone else. I promise. We'll let you know if we're interested.

never give up on your freedom because the minute you cover yourself not because you want to but because of them - they won... my bf is from secular yet kinda conservative country (muslim) but I would never give up my way of clothing when I visit - shorts and tank tops when outside is like 40 degrees... it has nothing to do with respecting their culture - lots of native girls dress the same as me, especially in big cities... so if someone is staring at me (mostly women though, men mostly don't care) I am wearing it as a badge of honor, like saying yeah, that's right, I can wear whateverthefuck I want and it doesn't mean you can harass me or that I am a prostitute... deal with it!

How come the only time these dudes hear women "asking for something" is not when they ask for equal pay or equal rights, but when those short skirts talk? And note, they could listen to the woman, then, too, but they don't.

People that try put fault on the victim confuse me. I mean yes, there are certain measures you take in life to be safe. Like do not try hand feed a shark, chances are it might not end well. But this is not one of those things. It is clothing. Tons of men walk around with no shirt in at all, and you never hear this type of talk. When people state women are "asking for it" they are pretty much admitting they are supporting rape.

That's because there are differences between male and female sexual arousal, Anita. Society taught women that unless they show a lot of their skin, they are unattractive, plain, boring, even useless and so many women will oblige, the fashion industry took advantage of that.

    Is it that really hard to understand? We have experienced what happens when Germany becomes very patriotic. That did not turn out very well for most of the world, Germany included. To me it makes very good sense that Germans are very carefull with patriotism these days and instead focuses on the coorporation with the rest of EU. National patriostism and egoism is very dangerous for a multicultural society in a globalished world.

    This. Patriotism is about caring, effort, and standards. A flag is a piece of cloth. Waving it doesn't make you anything but a person waving a piece of cloth. Patriotism is about helping all in your nation, not only those you like and know personally and agree with politically. ----- child of miltiary family and two veterans.

    I think in Europe in general a lot of countries are more aware that "patriotism" can leads to "nationalism" which led, in Europese's case, to most westerns European countries starting colonies ("we'll save those poor, bewildered souls with our greatness by enslaving them. Rightfully so, because of our greatness"), which led to an arms race, which led to the first world War, which led to extreme punishment on Germany by other nations, which led to more nationalism and another world War. I think a lot of Europeans are more aware that feeling proud of your country is great, but also dangerous when it leads to the premiss that you're THE best country. Best case scenario, you stop learning from others (US now), which is horrible for yourself. Worst case, you start feeling entitled and like taking from others, which is horrible for everybody.

    Being patriotic is not limited to Trump, supporters, and that’s a really harmful narrative that I’d beg you not to feed into. Republicans are trying to monopolize patriotism and claim that they are the only ones who are proud to be Americans in order to disparage Democrats and paint us as traitorous, which could not be further from the truth.

    It still baffles me that a study of 12 children 23 years ago is still causing the death of children. My eldest was due for the mmr when this all started, but I got him jabbed and all 3 of his siblings. No side effects. Why are people still afraid? The report was debunked almost instantly as a study of 12 kid will not give a proper result. Added to that, most children on the autistic spectrum won't be diagnosed until at least 2 years old. Luckily I live in the UK where this all started 20+ years ago and our kids get flu vaccinated as standard

    The medical researcher admitted to skewing the data to get a headline-grabbing result, because what he wanted was FUNDING for the future. Publish-or-perish is a real problem in the US, at least, to get funding. Lived that a long time. It's a nightmare, b/c a legit study will be overlooked (not gonna rouse the public), and that crap gets published and then on the news and.... people like me and mine end up without funding that could prevent children's deaths. B/c, y'know, our analytics and all weren't sexy enough.

    This entire assumption that gender, sexual orientation or other private, personal traits negatively affect everyone and everything around the "different duck" is one of the stupidest and most-backwards concepts that haters have created and nurtured over the past 50+ years. The complete lack of common sense it must take for someone to even begin to find truth in the concept is mind boggling. And if people lack the common sense to correctly assess something so obvious, the world really is becoming more scary by the minute.

    My concern is that people who are transgender are at a much higher risk of suicide, and sending them into combat may be the worst idea ever, as adding a high risk for PTSD on top of that would send the rates soaring even higher than they are, in my opinion. However, if a trans person wishes to serve in the military, I salute them.

Imagine hundreds of those scars covering the entire body and face. Imagine someone being blind because the same pustules that caused the skin scars have erupted on their eyeballs. That was smallpox.

    I once had an argument with a man who was angry that a gay teacher was teaching in his son’s school. His reckoning was that he (the teacher) would be overcome with temptation being surrounded by teenage boys and give into it. I asked him if his daughter had any male teachers. He said yes. So how come he didn’t have the same to reservations against a straight male teacher teaching his daughter as he had about a gay teacher teaching his son as his backward logic worked the same in both scenarios. I had to explain to him that just because you’re gay DOES NOT mean you’re a peadophile.

    Just how do these people think microchips work? When you get your pet microchipped, you can't track it from a distance if it gets out and becomes lost. You have to hope that someone will take it into a vet clinic and ask if they'll scan for a chip with a hand-held device from about 2cm away.

    You can't spend your money twice, you know. When we just set aside $790 billion for the military, it's obvious we have to cut on some budgets. Yours sincerely, US government.

    Shame the corporations in the area for asking for tax cuts just for setting up in town. Blame the top earners who get Republicans elected so they don't have to pay the taxes that would feed those kids.

And don't you even speak the truth - that yoir children are a responsibility to you until you die. The sarcasm is there built from 20 years of having people ask me why I dont have kids

    #1 on the list of stupidest things ever said to me: "How can you know you don't want kids if you don't try it?" My response was, "Chr!st - we're not talking about shoes! It's not like I can take it back if it turns out I don't "like" it." Mind you - that was said by a man married to a stay-at-home mom who was happy being a 1950's housewife making sure he never had to do anything with his kids at all. Hey - it works for them - great. :) Not for me, thanks.

    My mother had 7 children of which I was the second. She raised us until we were toddlers then systematically got rid of us. Two of us were adopted by grandparents, one was shaken but survived and wss adopted, two we can't locate and the last two she dropped off at an orphanage in their preteens. I met her before she died and she spoke & acted as if I was 2-- the age at which she abandoned me.

I know that's your mother so please forgive me if I offend you in any way but I see this a lot. After the first kid or at least the second I don't understand how people don't realize what they got into and why they just keep popping out more if they cannot or don't want to take care of them!

    I would just like to highlight that babies are cute BECAUSE there's a responsible adult that takes care of them, sometimes even at their own expense. (The poor abused children are cute too, sure, but in this instance, "cute" means happy, smiling, healthy and playful.)

    Yes ! Too many girls think they just pop out and are all around all the time adorable beings. No. I mean yes I do still think my kids are adorable even when they're being little buttheads because I love them. They're still adorable but how they're acting isn't at that time, but people have kids not realizing that your baby's going to cry for what it wants and needs and if you don't take care of them well, you don't get a smiley happy baby. Even well cared for kids are not happy all the time, s**t nobody is happy ALL the time. I just get so frustrated when people have babies to treat them like dolls then realize they're nothing like a doll baby and then become a s**t parent in turn raising a poorly adjusted child who will probably become another s**t adult!

Not only for the intensity of the pain (my endo pain has been the highest I evet experienced and I had several painful accidents) but also for the duration (my endo pain is most of the time moderate (6-7/10) but it is there 24/7 which can be maddening).

    I think you're misunderstanding both "that woman" and the platform. The woman's job is to stoke outrage, fear, and ridicule. She does this extremely well. Facts do not matter when the job is to stoke outrage, fear, and ridicule. The right-wing position these days ignores most basic facts (see: climate change science, covid medical knowledge, voter fraud evidence, etc). They pay MANY people to stoke outrage, fear, and ridicule (see most of the Fox "News" line-up - an organization which is registered as an entertainment channel and who literally use the defence, when sued, that "no one reasonable would believe the things we say"). So she's doing her job. The platform also benefits from all the likes and clicks and comments so they love the outrage machine. They will only remove very extreme cases that might threaten their ability to do business in the future, say, if a government was actually overthrown violently which would be very bad for business.

    "Socialism" has been used as a scare word in America for at least a century. And no, they don't know what it means. Plus for decades now one of the core right-wing tactics is to blame the left for everything they're doing. Voter fraud? Yeah, on the right. Child sex abuse? Yeah, on the right. Unfair business practices? Yeah, capitalism. It goes on. But they keep their people afraid and angry at phantoms while they gouge them and make their lives worse. Many right-wingers will literally and consciously make choices that make their own lives worse, as long as they can make "the libs" suffer along with them. It's not patriotic, it's not smart; it's just pathetic.

    I think you should start using the term social market economy, that's how it's called in Europe and it combines the best of capitalism and socialism. To me as a German the term Socialism always sounds wrong cause it was the System of the DDR and you don't want to have a system with complete state directed economy. We need free markets and a good social system combined.

    I really don't understand why people in the USA think we Europeans pay so much tax. My salary is £38,000, (approx $53,000) my income tax and national insurance payments are £8500, ($11,800) that is 22% of my income. The tax a US citizen pays on a similar income would be about $7400. Which may seem like a lot less, but that extra $4400 is still considerably less than the average US citizen spends on health care each year, which is around $12,000. Last year my healthcare costs came to £0.00 and I expect it to be the same next year, and the year after that. That actually makes our higher tax rates look like a bit of a bargain to me.

    Ok I'm going to defend this, those school desks don't cover as you think. If a girl is sitting in the front couple rows and stretches out while wearing a skirt that comes above the knee I can see right up the skirt. It's not voluntary, it's not something you can bring up with the girls without being accused of being a pedo. I'm a woman and I find it an awkward situation to be in. These girls have the right to wear what they want, I'll defend that till the day I die but these men aren't pedos for finding these situations uncomfortable.

    Can't the schools change the design of the desks then? Make a "wall" on the front side so no one can see, and everyone can stretch as they please :)

    I mean, we could take a look around the world and how minorities are treated in countries without "white supremacy". It's still bad, sure and needs a lot of improvement - but being the lesser evil is a good start (my opinion). The overall aggressive discussion from everybody really doesn't help to improve the situation at all

Does that mean that the $0.58 of every goddamned dollar I pay in taxes can now go to thing I support like healthcare, infrastructure, education, climate change and ecological conservation, firemen, national parks, mass transit, clean energy, counseling centers, homeless tiny home villages with services, elder care, child care, and things that generally promote, you know, good things for people?

    The new F150 EV has an optional upgrade that allows you to power your house from the trucks battery -3 days at full usage and up to 10 days with conservation on one charge. Seems like Texans should line up for this.

    Just saw an article today about the Chamber of Commerce wanting to kill the extra $300 in weekly unemployment benefits for exactly that reason. "We won't encourage companies to pay their people more; we'll just kill the extra benefits so they will have no choice but to return to a sh*tty job with a sh*tty wage." What a time to be alive.

    It's an absolute wonder to me that conservatives and trumpers think that 300$ in unemployment is enough to live on and that making less than 300$ a week at your 38hr a week job is so much better bc ya know they won't give you 40hrs or they'll have to give you benefits too. Hurry up and go work at McDonald's so I can berate your for working a s**t job but I still need you to work there.

    Unemployment benefits (such as they are) can be calculated online and you can find out you are NOT EVEN ELIGIBLE FOR THEM B/C YOU DID NOT EARN ENOUGH. E.g., earn $2,400 US per month and in mys tate, you're not even eligible to get any unemlpoyment benefits, despite having worked full-time at minimum wage.

    Minimum wage is paid for unskilled labor. Get some skills, get some education (doesn't have to be college) and make yourself worth more. Skilled labor earn more than minimum wage. Minimum wage is a starting point, not a landing spot.

    I get more and more frustrated with Jacinda every week, but I will never not enjoy the fact that our covid response could be considered malicious compliance with anti maskers. We had one of the strictest lockdowns in the world, all people entering the country (except those coming from Australia) have to isolate in a guarded hotel for two weeks, everyone who has covid gets put in a quarantine hotel and if we have even a small number of community cases, especially if there’s no known link to the border, people in the affected city/region have to go back into lockdown...but we only have to wear masks on planes and on Auckland public transport. :)

    I'm agnostic and not prone to quoting the bible. That being said, I do have one that is at the core of my personal life principles and it definitely applies here. It's something along the lines of 'don't concern yourself with the splinter in your neighbor's eye until you remove the plank from your own.' In other words, you aren't perfect either lady, so worry about your own shortcomings before you start pointing fingers and the supposed shortcomings of others.

    The bible was written by men. In fact, most of the new testament was written by unknown authors. Mark's writings differ wildly from that of the other three. There were countless translations, by monks and men who did not and could not accurately translate the "originial" words of the unknown authors, and, naturally, countless errors. Despite all of this, folks are willing to pin their entire approach to life and to their fellow humans based on one centuries-old game of telephone. I won't even get into the clear and obvious manipulation of this book in order to belittle and suppress the "other."

    Very true, and some translations may have been correct but went against the desires/beliefs of the ruling monarchy or the head of the church at the time, so 'adjustments' were made. As I said in an earlier comment, the bible is purely man's interpretation of the ancient writings of men. Could be the Dead Sea scrolls were someone's collection of best seller fiction of the times, lol

    The ONLY possible logical reason to oppose vaccinations is that without them, diseases would help curb population growth which would reduce climate change, plastic pollution, and environmental degradation. I'm not saying it's a good reason, but it is a logical reason. But vaccines don't cause superbugs.

    That's how nature works. We heedlessly overpopulate, some other force of nature takes a bunch of us out, and some balance is restored. Disease, just like famine and war and natural disasters, are forces of nature that take advantage of the vast supply of human bodies to live their best lives. Nobody has to let to their kids die. Just have fewer or none.

    No UK Amazon warehouses are unionised, but by law, workers could set one up. Amazon said it respected its employees' right to "join, form or not to join a labour union" of their choice. Unite's call comes after workers in Alabama in the US voted against forming that country's first unionised Amazon warehouse

    Wtf SWATting is so much worse than publicly coming out as gay, jfc. (It’s when basically people call the police the report some extreme crime that would typically require SWAT, like a hostage situation, active shooter, bomb. So it wastes the time of law enforcement and terrifies the people getting swatted while also potentially putting their lives in danger.)

    Sorry, that argument doesn't wash. The reason words are oppressive is because of the meaning the culture gives it. It's complicated, pretending otherwise is naive.

    To be fair to the tweeter, in the UK (don't know about other countries) you do not have to wear a mask outside. Walking in the countryside less so. I've had a jogger almost fall into a ditch trying to avoid me on a country lane, and this was after I'd moved right to the side to allow him to pass. Some people just like extremes I guess.

    Why? I think that all drugs should be legal, because then they can be controlled. Alcohol was huge problem during prohibition, now you have AA, you have nearly no methanol poisonings, mobs are not killing each other over alcohol (or at least not that much), quality can be controlled by goverment agency and so. Not to mention the amazing taxes income. But yes, I know that most of what I just said can be applied also to various poisons and guns.

Someone else wearing your medals on the left side of their chest and saying yes these are my medals don't they look cool is "appropriation"

    I think people should have to pass the citizenship test to be able to vote, and you’d have to retake the test every 10 or 15 years. A logistical nightmare, but wouldn’t it be great if the people voting knew even a tiny bit about how the government actually works??? It wouldn’t be like a few decades ago where they’d make black people prove they could read by giving them hard passages and then being like “actually it says ‘from the’ not ‘from’, you aren’t literate after all.”

    Tucker Carlson's way of "thinking for himself", means that he just presents a lot of homebrewed conspiracies. He states his theories as questions, showing that he did not even want to do the work to actually find the answers and the data to back them up (probably because data wouldn't back them up). By doing this he cannot be held responsible for what he is saying. E.g. by starting with: "could it be that...." he does not explicit say that "it is the case that [insert bizarre statement here (like Hillory belive in child sacrifice)]" Instead he just implants a lot of misbelieves in peoples minds to reach a given agenda, or reference other peoples obscure theories . Fox is not "the last big news organisation", as what it presents is not news, but political statements. News should be more fact focused and scrupped of political opinions, unless they are stated by a politician being interviewed. When you are from a nation with proper objective news channels it is really easy to see through

    If it were so easy to just get therapy, a lot more people would do it. Except if we're talking upper-class-toxic mothers solely, here. But a lot of issues come from never learning it better, because their parents were already messed up, and they give their issues to their kids even if they don't want to. If you don't KNOW the damage you're doing, you are unlikely to seek help. How many times have I read on the net that "I sure deserved to get the belt for how I behaved. didn't do me any lasting damage at all" and feel like a magnet, from all the irony. Because if you don't think that hitting a child with a belt for being a dumb sh it is completely okay, CLEARLY there was lasting damage. (while at the same time, kids get taught to "never hit someone weaker than you"... Do as I say, don't do as I do?)

    A single mother who’s stressed out from handling everything alone will find time exactly when to go to therapy? This one is really gross. Some people ARE toxic because they’re stressed out from a bad situation. Some won’t admit they need help. And like if my mom was one of them, she had barely enough money to buy us clothes or food sometimes, and worked during the day. How would she afford therapy and when would she go?

    I love NASA but there's some truth here. It is wasteful and rife with mismanagement and numerous duplicative programs. Purdue published a rather sobering study on it years ago. It's not pretty. Financial management at NASA is terrible. Under scheduling due to poor planning, poor cost estimations (chronic problem), suffocatingly bureaucratic processes. It's tough to get funding when you have such a poor track record of properly managing funds.

    My English teacher would NOT allow us to refer to the book using the numerals. In essays we had to write Nineteen Eighty Four (and underline it, since you couldn't do italics in handwriting). Style guide FTW!

    The working title, before it was complete, was "The Last Man in Europe".

    Jesus is nice, but some of the people who pray to him aren't.

    And I bet his kids will do what they want, anyway. Maybe not at home, though... (I also don't understand what that's all about, with the shoes? What's the big deal?)

    Ok, how exactly is it anti-black?

    Presumably, since obesity is higher amongst poor people and poverty is higher amongst black people, black people are more prone to obesity. Not that that makes it racist, but I'm assuming that's the 'logic'.

    I am obese and it is generally not a slur, it is a description and medical term. But it does also depend on HOW it is said. If the actual intent is to ridicule then yes it can be considered a slur but if it is just an observation then it's a factual description.

    "Obese" is a medical word. It's not a slur, violent or de-humanising. It's definitely not anti-black. But when you use mental gymnastics to make yourself perpetually offended, everything is problematic.

    Obese is the correct term for someone who clearly weighs too much and can't function normally because of that weight. It's not violent, insulting, dehumanizing or anti-black. But I guess soon we're not allowed to call water wet, because the word wet is too sexual.

    There was legit people trying to ban the word “moist” for that exact reason.

    Obesity is as as serious as Anorexia. A very serious health problem.

    "Racism" is not a magical spell that makes you able to win every argument without any effort.

    I prefer the term "whale", because I love whales. Swim around and eat all day, be majestic.

    There's a reason I can't wear a black and white one-piece, though - I might get rolled back into the sea!

    Maybe if Glenn wasn't 5'1" he wouldn't be trying to be such a hard ass. Little man syndrome. The Misfits broke up because he was a dickhead.

    I hate the Misfits, I always think people mean the band from Jem, which is also the name of a real life band that I think people are always referring to the cartoon.
