Funny replies when someone asks you a personal question

What to say when you don't want to answer a personal question

Some folks know that is not socially acceptable to ask personal questions, but they go ahead and ask anyway. These nosy people seem to think that the rules of social etiquette don’t apply to them.

Since they knew mutual people, Rebecca had concerns that everything she said would trickle back to her Ex-boyfriend. Over coffee, in the lunchroom, she was interrogated several times but her coworker finally got the hint that she wasn’t going to share any personal information, that was none of her damn business.
