a snappy definition

written by peter, on May 31, 2010 2:06:00 PM.

snappy comeback, n.:
a witty retort designed to make the audience go ‘oh, SNAP’
Also – sometimes you don’t think of a snappy comeback until hours later. Is there a word for that?

  • Well, there’s a fitting portmanteau at least: coming up with a snappy comeback hours late is pretty hapless, so I’d say that that would be a ‘snapless’ comeback.
