Not being able to come up with the perfect comeback to someones statement is one of the most universally frustrating experiences ever. I think anyone can relate to that horrible moment when the perfect comeback comes to mind hours after the debate is over. It always happens in person, you choke up and just end up feeling defeated and small. Why is it that some people are so quick? Well, online it is a little easier. There is more time to think and type something out and less anxiety and confrontation. There are a lot of witty moments of extreme comebacks that can be found online.

Of course on Twitter there is always a mile long thread of people fighting occurring, so finding some real zingers there isn't hard. Some people just have the most perfect thing to say at the perfect moment, it is a satisfying thing to see and can be found on Reddit's specially formulated subreddit r/CleverComebacks. This subreddit dedicates every smart, hurtful, or just plain true comeback that is worth remembering. Here are just 15 of them that are so real you can feel the burn.
