Or give them a blank stare with a straight face. Or say “I’m sorry, what does that mean?” Or “I’m sorry, I don’t follow” and make them repeat it/double down.I learned my lesson. You essentially have to be stone faced and outright unemotional when dealing with them. And they do size you up before trying you. They’ll Crack a joke to see how receptive you are. Always assume they will say something sneaky. And be ready with the comeback, which you must deliver with a smirk.
Reverse it and put them on the spot.
