Have you ever been sitting around hours after a conversation, discussion, or confrontation and realized you knew exactly what to say after all?

It can be frustrating to have the perfect comeback or comment and not be able to use it because the moment has passed (just ask George Costanza) – which is why those moments when we see someone really come up with something perfect in the moment are the best things ever.

These 17 people were definitely on the ball with these responses, so please enjoy!
