One of the more annoying experiences we've all had is the feeling of not being able to come up with the perfect comeback to someone's argument or statement. It happens in particular when things are heated — right when the perfect comeback would make all the difference.

For some reason, the brain likes to forget everything in that moment but then think of something perfect to say like an hour later, after the moment is long gone. Why this happens, no one knows. Not everyone has this problem though. Some people are able to come up with the most clever and wittiest responses to just about anything.

Comebacks that are perfectly curated and get the point across effectively, and are usually pretty funny too. Seeing this kind of thing happen is not common, so it gets documented on Reddit's /r/CleverComebacks.

This community is full of many of the best comebacks on Twitter threads and other forums that definitely left a mark. Here are 11 perfect responses that may just inspire someone to come up with their own clever comeback.
