Recently, someone made a mean crack to me in others' hearing. I won't go into what the crack was, except that it was an inaccurate inference about my apparent financial status, and the supposed reason for it. (And no, it wasn't "you slept your way to the job.")
I was shocked and about all I could think of to say was, "You're wrong about that." This seemed inadequate, so I said nothing. [Added edit: To really respond, I would have had to go into personal things that were nobody's business]. Did I "lose"? Would the other people assume the commenter was "on to something there"?
