I am 29 years old and I was in a disagreement with a 22 year old girl at my work. Then she says to me "Oh yeah, well, you're a 30 year old!" And I said "Yeah, but I look younger and better than you, and let's see if you even make it to 30."

You did. It's not cool to dis elders for their age. That's disrespectful. And we will be that age one day too, if we are lucky enough to live long lives.
Also, age is just a number. You may look better and be able to perform better than her.

I think both comebacks sound immature. Neither addressed the point you were arguing about. As the older, you should not stoop to the immature 22 year old's level. Actually, her saying "You're a 30 year old!" should be considered a compliment. There's nothing wrong with being in your 30's. Most of us reach that age sooner or later.

I HAVE TO TELL THEM OFF IN THE SHOWER THE NEXT DAY!! A little too late. I bet you put a pain in her neck for today and maybe tomorrow too. I guess she might not B**** slap you again without a prepared plan!! Get that puppy trained!! Imagine making us feel old at 30!! Good Lord, we have just begun to fight!! We are still attractive, we don't get used anymore, and we're better in bed. Wish you and I could talk!! We could get happy on that one. Hope you don't let that stupid baby make you feel old!! You are simply oldER!! Gosh, wish I could say she's just jealous and tried to take you down to raise herself up because you've got the brains and experience and she's got squat!! Hey I JUST DID!! We just took off and have a map now Honey, and we're about to take a fast right so she needs to sit up straight and pay attention. Stay ready for that chicky bird. She's twice as bad behind your back!! Out-class the mutt!! OH WAIT, YOU ALREADY DID!! My money is on the BEAUTIFUL ONE THAT'S SMARTER AND IS BETTER IN BED!! YEAH!! We have at least 30 more years of competition before we need to sit and crochet. Keep battting them back Kiddo and give um one for me!! I wish I was a fly on YOUR wall. Might make me faster on my feet!! Good Luck!! @8=)

Your comment about her making it to 30 could be perceived as a threat. You two don't get along and she could go to upper management and blow your comment out of proportion. It's may seem ridiculous but people will do anything today.

Truly? Both "comebacks" came off as totally immature and superficial. That means that both EQUALLY suck. Each of you merely made reference to the other's physical appearance...or anticipated appearance - 8 years hence. The real issue (whatever it was), wasn't even touched on.

You did, which just proves the age old axiom:
"old age and treachery will overcome youth and skill every time"
It always worked for me!
