In a coffee shop earlier teen girl at the next table was having an animated conversation on her phone. Then she said no, you don't have haters people just don't like you. Then she hung up. Brilliant.

Couple of others that came to mind.

Alf Garnett, sickness/health.

Mrs Alf: Will you come shopping with me?
Alf: It's Saturday afternoon I'm going to West Ham
Mrs Alf: Sometimes I think you love West Ham more than you love me
Alf: You know that's not true
Mrs Alf: Aww, really?
Alf: I love bloody Millwall more than I love you

Married With Children
Guy: looking pensive on the sofa
Wife: Honey what are you thinking?
Guy: If I wanted you to know what I was thinking I'd be talking

Any contributions....

Heard towards the end of the night from a highly exasperated member of bar staff in a very busy nightclub in an exchange with a highly inebriated teenage punter, following on from a disagreement over who should be served next.

Inebriated punter (as the barman walked away) - "You fat bcensored"

Highly exasperated barman - "I'm only a fat bcensored cos your Mum gives me a slice of cake every time I fcensored her up the acensored"

The member of staff may, or may not, have been yours truly

I can't say the best / worst / cruellest one I heard as I'll probably get banned.

However telling someone they're uglier than a warthog's mother in law is pretty cutting.

That's an inversion of what Churchill had to say of Clement Atlee: ' ...an empty taxi drew up, and Mr Atlee got out'.
