Most of the time I don’t even pay attention which I feel makes it better because no one to catch the ball that he’s throwing.

Top ten comebacks for someone who bad mouths others

by

When someone starts bad mouthing others in front of you, use one of our clever comebacks. Check out our top ten comeback lists. www.ishouldhavesaid.net.

It can be awkward if you are hanging out with someone and they start bad mouthing some of your mutual friends. You know the old saying if someone gossips to you they will gossip about you.

Try not engage in conversations that tear other people down. You may not feel comfortable saying something back, but at some point, you have to stand up for your friends who aren’t there. If you don’t say something, you will become known as someone who gossips as well.

Don’t tell me what was said about me. Tell me why they were so comfortable to say it to you. – Jay Z

Mandy, who was in high school, had a nasty side and loved to badmouth others and stir up drama. There was a teacher at her high school that she didn’t like because he called her on her bad behaviour in class. She started spreading rumours about her teacher with the other kids, saying that he hit on girls and he had flirted with her, even though it wasn’t true. An evaluation of student safety was sent around to the classes, and she wrote down that this particular teacher made her feel unsafe, even though he had never done anything to her.

Mandy’s bad mouthing caused this teacher to be called in by the school principal, who luckily knew that Mandy was a troublemaker and didn’t take it any further. If the principal hadn’t been switched on, the badmouthing could have negatively affected the teacher’s career.

Use our clever comebacks and leave the person who bad mouths others speechless, let them know it is not OK to talk about people negatively.

Top ten comebacks for people who badmouth others

  1. People who talk crap about others will be reincarnated as toilet roll.
  2. When you talk so much crap about others I don’t know whether to hand you toilet roll or a breath mint.
  3. I can’t respect you if you talk shit about all of the people who you run with.
  4. If you go around bad mouthing people behind their back, the risk you run is at some point that they are going to talk to each other.
  5. Too bad you can’t count jumping to conclusions and running your mouth as exercise.
  6. I hope you don’t choke on all that shit you talk.
  7. If you ran like your mouth you’d be in great shape.
  8. I believe in freedom of speech but some people need to know when to shut up.
  9. Since you love talking shit behind peoples backs so much, you may as well bend down and kiss my ass while you’re down there.
  10. You have a bad case of spewing shit from the mouth. I hope you get well soon.

Don't trust a friend who bad mouths others

Ask Bryn – What should I say to my nasty female boss

by

Ask Bryn, what can I say to my horrible woman boss. Do you have a question for Bryn, submit your question at www.ishouldhavesaid.net.

Ask Bryn

Ask Bryn a question | Need a custom comeback www.ishouldhaavesaid.netExcellent, excellent website – best I have read yet!!!! Question: We work in an office setting with someone who is so controlling, offensive, annoying and downright knows it all, and passive aggressive. We thought when she finally got pregnant she would simmer – she is the same except now she is the only person who has a child that “needs her” or husband that “needs her”. Whenever she wants to do overtime it’s ok – but when we want to “my husband and kid need me – this place ain’t getting any more out of me”.

Every customer call she takes she has to repeat the whole story and say how stupid they were. She talks all day about how “stupid or dumb” everyone is in our organization and life. It is truly exhausting and you can never win with her. She is racist against every religion, race, and anyone outside her immediate family.

Leaving our career is definitely not an option so we need some comebacks to shut her up -(and they have to be somewhat white because she really strikes back fast about everything – as you can imagine 😉 Oh and whatever you say to her – she will come back passive aggressive (but she hates the passive aggressiveness of people). It is quite entertaining – but exhausting !!!

Anne Marie, Canada

Hi Ann- Marie,

Yikes, she sounds like a nightmare! The problem with people like your boss is whatever you say she will turn it and use it against you. If you don’t want to lose your job, and I assume that you don’t, you had better not use a comeback.

What you can do instead is say a few nice things, which can have a couple of different results. She will either stop talking to you because some people just like to complain and you won’t’ be someone who will indulge that, so she will move on and complain to somebody else.She may also end up thinking you’re nice and leave you alone.
Sometimes in life, you have to not just win the battle and instead win the war. It can be in your best interest to kill with kindness.

Here are a few things to say if she is complaining about something

  1. Life is like a roller coaster. It has its ups and downs but it is your choice whether to scream and enjoy the ride or not.
  2. Some days you’re the dog, and some days you’re the fire hydrant.
  3. When nothing goes right… go left.
  4. Count your rainbows, not your thunderstorms.
  5. Some days you have to create your own sunshine.
  6. Focus on the things you can change and let go of the things you can’t.

Good luck and let me know how it goes.

Bryn
