While in the elevator of my high-rise apartment building, I was among a group of neighbors and strangers. A woman whom I did not know was standing there, her hair absolutely parched by too many perms and tints.
She glared at me and said: "I think you could use a haircut".
Without missing a beat, I replied, "I think you could use an industrial-size bottle of conditioner!"
Her mouth fell open and I gave her that "you-wanna-f***-with-me-some-more?" stare. You should have heard the snickering among the rest of the folks in the elevator!!!
WoW, that 'lady' had some nerve!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sometimes it all comes together and the repartee just flows off the tongue. A moment like that is one to savour.
Luvvit :-D
Thanks for sharing that amusing story with the board. That woman got exactly what she deserved, in my opinion.
Oh yeah!!! She had that one coming! That was a moment which will keep you warm and happy for years to come. Good job!

Maybe you could say something like this instead "I think you need to shave your head and start all over". That would probably have more sting to it (in addition to being true)
Great retort. Bravo!
Apparently she, (as so many others) knows everything there is to know about everyone elses business.............BUT HER OWN!
BRILLIANT!
