Allright, i really suck at this thing - ived found myself using comebacks like "yeah, good luck with being a homo" and my personal favourite "yeah... (long silence)" :lol:
Anyway, in all seriousness its a problem that have been returning for me again and again.
I have learned to keep frame and be in peace with myself in almost any other given mood and situation, but when I get battled to the art of wit comebacks, I freeze down;
I dont know what to say, feel stressed etc..
For example, as late as yesterday i got taken out by a barrista at a coffeehouse.

How can i improve on that field?
In forward, thank you for any tips and advices!

Other Options:
1) Ignore it and continue talking/doing whatever you were already doing.
2) Accept it and take it to the beyond.
ex. Villian: Step back your breath smells.
PUA: Sorry, I was eating pussy for lunch.

Like my mom use to say, " if you don't have anything nice to say. Don't say anything at all."

Nothing conveys high status as much as ignoring a silly joke. If you continue with confidence despite what people say, they will respect you and feel immature for making the joke. Just be unaffected.

I'm pretty good with comebacks, but if I don't have one I just give them a chuckle like haha nice try, but you can't heat my inner cool.

When your inner game is tight, and your confidence is like a brick fucking wall, this stuff will just come naturally to you. Don't worry, its the way men are built.

It all boils down to self amusement. If they're saying stuff to you in a joking manner, I usually make a come back with the aim of amusing myself. So let's say they say my hat looks funny and that I'm such a tool. I laugh and tell them that at least this tool has got the tools to keep his head screwed on right. (Well, yeah, doesn't have to be incredibly witty, just needs to come across as something you truly find amusing...) If they try to be genuinely hurtful though or cross the line, I just stay silent and continue talking to others, thus removing him/her from my reality and making others realize that this guy is trying to break our good vibe and thus alienating him. Eventually, he'll relent just so he can be accepted again.

1. Agree and amplify

2. Ignore and stack forward

3. Positive misinterpretation

4. Answer a question you WISH she asked

Examples:

1. HB: "Are you balding?"
EQ: "Yeah, I'm just getting WAY more head aren't I?!"
2. HB: "You're getting too touchy feely..."
EQ: Take mental note and ease kino "Have you ever heard of _____? (insert name of bar, sport, event, etc.)"
3. HB: "Rum and Coke? That's like, a drink that you get when you just get out of college..."
EQ: (Look with a judgemental face) "...Is that your BEST pickup line? Jeez!"
4. HB: "Stop asking us stupid questions!"
EQ: "I'm NOT gunna have sex with you lady!" (Make sure everyone hears this)

These methods all work because these are all actual examples of shit I received when I was in-field, and after getting past these situations, the reaction you're looking for is a giggle and a punch on the arm or they start grabbing your neck. If they don't, no sweat, just stack forward like I did in Example 2.

If it's a guy trying to AMOG, I'd just say "Dude, I'm not gay, stop hitting on me!" and keep going with your story or whatever you were doing beforehand. Or you can just completely ignore him, or just use the classic "cool man" line and keep stacking forward.

The common theme here is that these are all reframing techniques. The other person is trying to impose a low status frame on you. It's up to you to recognize it, and impose another frame, or ignore theirs completely, rendering it ineffective. After a while you start to realize that pickup is a constant frame battle, and whoever has the strongest frame wins. The only way to get good with these techniques is to practice in the field. You WILL freeze up, you WILL forget this stuff, but make it a point to work on passing shit tests/comebacks for a week until you get it down.

Hope this helped,

EQ

If anyone tried to insult me in more than a playful friendly way, I would just crack a laugh of pity at them and ignore them. This makes them feel worthless because you didn't respond the way they wanted you to and their attempt at trying to bring you down backfired on them.

This is a good convo and an important point.

I have the same problem and I found two things.

1. if its a nasty kind of comment they make, then just ignore it and carry on talking about whatever. I had a friend who was very good at this, his response was "haha yeh yeh man but what do you think about this blah blah blah
2. If its playfull, its more about the tone and being completely confident, even if what you just said was a totaly lame comeback.

The problem is there are too many things someone can say to can pack your responses.
