Need a sharp comeback? Then look no further than Julia Louis-Dreyfusโ€™ titular character, Selina Meyer, in Veep. With Season 5 starting on M-Net Edge very soon, nowโ€™s a better time than never to relive her most brutal moments. Donโ€™tย feel too sorry for the victims of her venomous tongue, though โ€“ those around her can be equally vicious.

  1. With your face, when you attempt to be charming, it really does come off as evil. โ€“ Selina Meyer
  2. If you want to get some cardio exercise you have to have a heart. โ€“ Selina Meyer
  3. I donโ€™t have a sense of humour and neither should you. โ€“ Sue Wilson
  4. Hello, what do you want? You canโ€™t have it. Goodbye. โ€“ Sue Wilson
  5. How do you suggest that I mingle with this few people? Did Simon mingle with Garfunkel? โ€“ Selina Meyer
  6. Why is that your hair? โ€“ Selina Meyer
  7. She has gone full-metal Nixon. ย โ€“ Amy Brookheimer
  8. I fully support your decision to live as an ugly woman. โ€“ Amy Brookheimer
  9. I am the one who got us this far, you sentient enema. โ€“ Amy Brookheimer
  10. You're not even a manโ€ฆyouโ€™re like an early draft of a man, where they just sketched out a giant mangled skeleton but they didn't have time to add details, like pigment or self-respect. โ€“ Ed Webster

If youโ€™ve watched the show, youโ€™ll know these arenโ€™t even the most intense insults. Still too harsh for you? Why not try a few from The Big Bang Theory here?
