Gee, what a plot twist! :-P

You're slower than a slug, and about twenty times as dumb!

Kind of getting a litte tired of redirecting the insult...but it works, I guess.

(I know what you mean, but at least I didn't say "I'm over here" or mention a mirror. I tried to be a little creative about it.)

Oh no, it will only take one, though I'm sure you'll be seeing ten of me by the time I'm through with you!

Oh. Wow. I forgot about this completely... uh, yeah, saber gets the point for that one.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Though it doesn't play on the original insult too well, it is effective. Point to Josiah.

Eh... this one's iffy... it does play on the original insult, but... wording could be better, and the general concept is kind of...

It's good enough, though. Point to Saber.
