drudge retort

A political website run by a failed web publisher, populated almost exclusively by homebound seniors and pathetic trolls. The regulars argue about the same 5 topics on a daily basis, fleck spittle onto their computer screens, and generally waste their worthless lives.

I haven't argued about abortion in a while, think I'll visit the Drudge Retort.

Retort Tardiness

A common syndrome wherein the speaker often remembers something clever to say about 10 minutes after the conversation has ended

"The boy said 'you git' to the bully, but due to his retort tardiness, later reflected it would have been more accurate to have said 'you misproportioned cankerous cretacean'"

Retortical

I hate to get retortical about it, but are you sure you didn’t leave you brain at home?

astronomical-cost retort

Refers to the mildly-indignant answer that you snortingly "toss back" at a seemingly-impertinent clueless who naively asks why you don't "just buy your way out" of a moderately-inconvenient/difficult/unpleasant situation, his not being familiar with the enormous financial outlay that said "easy-solution" choice/action would entail.

Two typical/everyday examples of an astronomical-cost retort would be with regards to having a garage come and pick up your presently-non-drivable vehicle instead of having a friend help you tow/push it the few miles to the garage with another vehicle ("Yeah, **sure** I could --- for a nice HUNDRED-BUCKS TOWING-CHARGE!"), or if you presently have to turn your well-pump on and off manually because it's "on its last legs" and so you always have to be "right there and ready" to quickly turn the pump back off to avoid damage if it doesn't immediately start up when you power it on ("Oh, yeah --- new pumps are indeed available --- you got an extra THOUSAND BUCKS OR MORE JUSS LAYIN' AROUND to get one installed??!"). Never fails to shut the impudent inquisitor right up!
