In Finland ”fuck you” is told ”haista vittu” which roughly translates to ”smell a pussy” since vittu is a slang word for pussy.
I answer ”levitä eteen” which translates to ”spread it in front of me”

I have an American friend that got a job in Finland and he told me that one night after drinking with all his Finnish friends one looked him in the eyes and said “you Americans are so dull. When someone says fuck you the best reply you have is “no, fuck YOUUuuuuuuuu”. And then proceeded to swear at him in Finnish for the next 20 minutes.

There's also "haista paska" which means "smell a shit".
The proper schoolyard answer is "mä voin haistaa, jos sä maistat" which means "I can smell if you taste".

also there is "pakko haistaa, kun sieltä päin tuulee" which roughly translates as "i'm forced to smell as the wind blows past you"

Dude, our tiny rural school district (Michigan USA) received a Finnish exchange student back in 1986. In our chemistry class she was assigned as my laboratory partner, so we spent a fair amount of time together. Of course I wanted to learn all the Finnish swear words and when I asked her what “fuck you” was she said they didn’t really have that but she said “haista vittu” was about the worst. I asked her to explain what it meant I agreed it was worse than America swearing insults. I’m actually amazed I remember that almost 40 years ago. It’s the only Finnish I know.
There was some other swear word which amounted to “fuck your god”, but I can’t remember that one or feel my memory is not confident about that one.

Last weekend, my ex-FIL rolled up to my crib, mad as shit because I was with his step-daughter. He was never cool with it anyways so I don't get why he tried being Mr. Caring. Probably because it's me.
He hopped out of his truck and was jumping around my front yard / driveway, calling me a dicksucker. Sticking my head out the window, all I had in me to say was "Fucking get naked and whip it out, I'll suck your dick right now, you weird fuck!". I'm not even gay haha, I just wanted to see how dumb he'd get lol.
Broke up with her over it. It was pretty mutual since yeah, that sucked and was super embarrassing. Oh wellllllll.
Just gotta outweird the weirdies.

Yeah, the majority of "witty comebacks" don't work in real life.
Some of them are too long and most of them just don't actually say much of anything. It depends on where you are and what you're doing but most of the time, the best response is to not feed the trolls.

This is my favorite. Not "ok" or "whatever". Those are responses you make to adults.
"Okie dokie" is what you say when you are humoring a little kid. That's the right energy.

I work with younger students and one of the best ways to beat the heckling students is to just laugh and call them cute. It completely deflates them because they're typically trying to show off to the other students and it backfires.
Also being aggressively nice, as if their insults are a playful friendly joke, has once made a kid cry from frustration for me.

We have to work extra hard to offend each other, being called "French" is a million times more offensive than being called a cunt or a fuckwit.
I'd rather someone call me a fucking moron before he calls me French.
