Injured again, this time broken 5th metatarsal, because I'm a clutz. (At least this time I have a sympathetic DR)

I need a snappy comeback for everyone that makes a wise crack about my "healthy running lifestyle".

"Your Mom doesn't seem to think so"

Janie, today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go f*** himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.

+2 (3?) to the tried-and-true "your mom" joke.

You can even expand it to "The endurance is worth it when I'm doing your mom--and I don't need to be on my feet for that. I mean, damn, that lady takes a long time to service. Ask your dad."

"When a person trains once, nothing happens. When a person forces himself to do a thing a hundred or a thousand times, then he certainly has developed in more ways than physical. Is it raining? That doesn't matter. Am I tired? That doesn't matter, either. Then willpower will be no problem."

How about

"Yeah? Well you're still fat but you don't hear me teasing you about it."

I like the mom comeback though.

HTFU? Why not!

I think you could end the comments and all future comment with an "Office Linebacker" tactic:

And follow it up with "Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"

Sorry with my avatar I felt obligated to chime in on that one.
