How can I become better at thinking up comebacks? Right now, I am not too good at it and it can take me a while to say something back when someone insults me (which is not good!). I really want to get quick at this and be able to think up good ones. Thanks everyone!
PS: I am not really going to use this for bad. I will only use this if someone has insulted me or someone I know.

You have to train yourself to think quickly on your feet. If you know the person, think about their weak points (intelligence, weight, face, personality). If you don't know the person, if someone you don't know is insulting you, that means they're overcompensating for something. If it's a guy it's probably a small penis or lack of intelligence. If a woman, she's probably just a *****. Be careful, sometimes a well placed comeback can really anger someone. Beready to duck. Use your comebacks only for the power of good, never evil.

How To Have Good Comebacks

With people you see regularly you take note of their weaknesses before hand and incorporate that into the insult they gave to you and try to throw it back at them. Try to load your gun before hand.
It's sadly not important if you are that right or not in what you say back. What's most important is to get a laugh and shoot them down.
I do agree with the answer above also. If the insults are really bad avoid that person if you don't deserve it and don't have to see them (if you don't deserve it - if you do then stop doing whatever they are bugging you about). There are an unbelievable amount of insecure losers out there.

Well the best way to think of a comeback is think of something simple then put discriptive words to make your comeback fire

One of my favorite comebacks is to cast aspersions on the person's education. or intelligence. I would never say that s/he is stupid, but I would suggest that the original comment obviously comes from a well-developed mind.
"it's a pleasure to hear from such an evolved person like you. your comments are often so erudite and insightful.. Thank you"
Chances are the person won't even know what the heck you are talking about and back off.

think about all the bad things of yourself; stuff you might get made fun of for. then think of things in advance to say! listen and watch stand-up comedians, as most of them display great wit and things that might inspire you. I find the best comeback is to just bite the insulter in the neck, i mean, RIGHT in the jugular vein, but everyone has a different style.

I think it's just something you have to be good at. I'm quick at it, and I never ... practiced... I think you just have to be a quick thinker and maybe creative to make it a good insult. Just say the first thing on your mind, don't take time to think.

Just think about things about how they look and think of others that look bad and tell that person they look nasty like the other person and don't use names and just talk about other things although they will not be true about that person

just think positively, don't stoop that low like the one who insults you.
i used to get hurt when ever someone do that to me, it makes me wonder, is it me at fault here or something is wrong that i didn't quite understand. but it dawn on me, its not me, so what i do, i will analyze the whole situation first, then turn around and honestly tell that person that i didn't appreciate that scenario, it hurts and i don't deserve it. that way, they stop cause they know how you feel, it will not happen anymore.
long time ago, i used to be brazen and people were shocked how i act, but im matured now, im not going to show that other part of me cause i look bad, so my advice, think positively and be honest. if you let them know, both will learn from it.
