I'm with Mike, give as good as you get. Better if you're smarter than them, a la Peter Pan vs. Rufio.

Insults based on the offending parties junk never fail to satisfy.

Hard to say. I somehow offended a guy who had his family with him and he obviously felt threatened so I let him vent and go on his way. I outweighed him nearly 2 to 1 but getting into a brawl in front of his wife and kids wasn't going to make things any better so I decided to just take it.

Otherwise I just tell people to stuff it up their hind quarters.

verbal attacks mean nothing to me
they just show that they are insecure and they need love now more than ever

Possibly something immature like making a comment about how hot his mom is and how nasty she likes to get with my naught bits......

i dunno.....depends on the context of the event.

Primary school or secondary school?
In primary school you call him a poophead, and flush his crayons down the toilet, in secondary school you say things about his mom, genitals and sexual preferences.

thank them for the kind, intelligent advice, and let them know that you'll take it on board for next time. Usually confuses them a bit.

I don't let people verbally abuse me..

In the rare cases I loose my guard and someone does try to, I usually look at them all droopy eyed, flash my cutest smile and say "I love ya"

And since most people who try to humiliate me through words tend to use my sexuality for it.. In those cases it's just "So our date for tomorrow's off?" or "That's really nice, but when are you going to take your clothes off?"
