It’s not great to be on the receiving end of an insult, but to read others get slammed with one-line comebacks can be quite entertaining. We’ve compiled a list of 40+ moments people were totally crushed by just one punchline on the internet. From food pics to embarrassing moments, this list has it all…
Italicized Twins
Considering the average wait in line to see the Mona Lisa is an hour, these two wanted to make the most of the little time they had by taking a selfie with the famous painting before getting pushed aside.
Not even taking notice of the painting, they were hit with a comment that said their stance resembled italic letters. Despite the poor angle, we’re happy these two got the opportunity to see one of Da Vinci’s most valuable works of art.
2008 Throwback
With the current trending hairstyles of perfect fades, undercuts, and slicked-back dos, it’s safe to say that this guy’s hairdo doesn’t quite fit today’s style. However, it reminded this commenter about the look almost everybody had in 2008.
With the shaggy mullet-like hairstyle, it takes one back in time to the innocent boy band phase. Not too sure if this one comes as an insult or compliment but let’s hope it doesn’t bruise his confidence.
14/14 Basic Babe
Truthfully, it looks as if the blonde girl would fit the definition of a basic girl aka someone who follows mainstream trends. However, this viewer took it to the next level. This girl would be rated 14/14.
For those who are confused, 14 is the most extreme basic end of the pH scale. Don’t worry, she probably didn’t catch on to that either. What’s worse than being insulted is not understanding your insult in the first place.
Missing Goatee
It’s pretty common to leave the hairdresser or barber unhappy, even though you acted as if you weren’t unhappy while in the chair. However, this guy was definitely happy and took to social media to share his fresh haircut.
Although his viewers didn’t quite like his beard trim, one user went so far as to tell him to pull up his beard to cover his chin. Regardless of that overly critical comment, we think he looks pretty good.
Rule Breaker
Each parent has their own take on household rules and discipline. This mother seems to have taken a more strict and supervised route. She went on to list the rules her son has to follow, specifically around screen time.
She probably expected fellow mothers to compliment her and ask for advice. This user thought her rules seemed very similar to those of an old-age home and gave her a quick reminder to have a little fun while young.
Chum Bucket Hamdogs
Sometimes, things don’t go according to plan. This was the case when this user had to do some reshaping to his burger patties after buying hotdog buns by mistake. After seeming fairly proud of his quick thinking, he went to share the funny situation online.
While others found it funny, it wasn’t for the obvious reason. The Chum Bucket is the restaurant in SpongeBob known for its unappealing and foul-tasting food, most of which is made from literal chum. This commenter thought these ‘hamdogs’ would be a perfect addition to the menu.
Hog Rider
The prisoner was trying to intimidate the man by asking if he knew where he was from, and this user took it upon himself to say Clash of Clans. The prisoners’ attempt to scare the man would be an absolute failure if the scenario were true.
For those of you who are unsure of what Clash of Clans is, it’s an online animated game where users build a village and need to defend their land. This prisoner looks exactly like the character Hog Rider. The buff build, beard, and mohawk make him the perfect real-life doppelgänger.
Honesty Is the Best Policy
Friends are important for many reasons and there are plenty of responsibilities they have. For example, making sure you always look good by rating your outfit, even if it means being brutally honest. This guy asked for a simple rate on a 1-10 scale of how his outfit looked.
His friend definitely didn’t hype him up. His outfit was so bad that it didn’t even get a place on the scale. Honesty is always the best policy — although, maybe in this situation, a rating of 1 would’ve been better for his confidence.
Felt Cute, Might Delete Later
Surely, everyone’s aware of the trend used when posting your pictures and captioning them something along the lines of ‘felt cute, might delete later.’ Truthfully, there’s no intention of ever deleting the post. While you might not get comments pleading with you not to delete, you at least get a compliment or two.
This guy didn’t get gushing comments, though. This commenter took the caption pretty seriously and even encouraged him to delete the post sooner. Clearly, the commenter isn’t a fan of the pic. Maybe it’s the pout pose?
