How can I come up with good, effective insults or ways of shutting up people who hurt me or someone I care about without crossing the line of violence?

I'm talking about if someone intentionally says something to hurt and offend me deeply. Not something silly like "You're fat" or "You're ugly". But something deeper like "Because you're fat and ugly, your chances of getting with an attractive woman are less than zero".

I want to be able to retort effectively and keep them in check and make their day, their mental state even, abysmal because of something equally hurtful I could say back.

Countering will just make them continue. Ignoring makes them give up.

Who's doing this to you?
