Should that be hyphenated?
Just had the idea when visiting 'thought for the day'.
eg 'Why is that every time you open your mouth your bowels work?
or 'As a complete outside, what is your considered opinion of the human race?'

oohh favourite put downs after failing to chat up a bloke

Me - would you like to go to the cinema
Bloke - no
Me - shame! you would look so much better in the dark!

Me - Would you fancy dinner sometime?
Another bloke - my girlfriend wouldn't like it.
Me - actually I was hoping she would come too!

And my personal favourite smiley - smiley

Bloke - Oi you spilt my pint.
Me - well in that case you haven't got a firm enough grip. You ought to practise more!

a girl called Ben

"Tell me, what colour is the sky on your home planet?"

And my favourite, which depends entirely on the quality of the previous bullshit for its full effect, but which is devestating when used correctly: "Really?"

Is mise Duncan

Definitely not Betty Boothroyd. She was a looker and nowhere near the House of Commons fifty years ago - possibly Bessie Braddock, but perhaps Nancy Astor?

I'm not saying you momma's fat when when she passes her handbag from one hand to the other she has to throw it.

I'm not saying shes fat but when she fell over and cut her knee, butter came out.

Her school photo was taken from a helicopter.

Last time she bent over the sun set

I quite like "Oh, have a *word* with yourself".

Oh, and descriptions of someone's dress sense as "fun", or, even better, "brave", as in:

"What a *brave* choice of colours".

The best one I ever heard was told to me by my mate Bryan:

Girl: Hi, .
Bloke: You know, I could have been your father, but the hog beat me over the fence.

This is best said with serious emphasis on 'hog', plus such crushing conviction and obvious glee that it leaves said girl in floods of tears. My mate Bryan's fairly cruel, as you can see...
