Being called ‘lazy’ isn’t good. We all know that. 

And, that’s more insulting when you’re not lazy but still, someone calls you ‘that’. 

Fine, if you’re not into something or don’t want to do something for a while. 

But that doesn’t make you lazy anyway. 

Next time, someone tries to provoke you into doing what they want, you should give them the witty and funny comebacks for calling you ‘a lazy’.

 

How To Respond When Someone Calls You “Lazy”?

When someone says ‘You’re lazy’, there must be some reason. 

First, you need to know why they call you that. 

Check it yourself, how true it is.

Maybe, you are a lazy person, but you have no idea about it.

How To Respond When Someone Calls You Lazy

In that case, you should do something, when you notice you do nothing important. 

Or doing nothing at all. 

Whereas in other cases, someone calls so, without any valid reason or context. 

It’s their trick to get something done from you.

So, when you find that someone calls you lazy for doing nothing for them, here are the funny comebacks you can share:

1. “Right, I’m so lazy that I don’t want to respond to you.”

A perfect response to shut them down with their strategy.

You accept being called lazy here.

And so, you prefer not to say to them anything. 

2. “It’s not like that, I just don’t enjoy doing such things. Like this one.” 

The lack of interest in doing such things doesn’t make you lazy.

Share this direct comeback to make it clear to them. 

3. “I rather be lazy than do some crazy things like you.”

What they are about to do, makes no sense. 

You try to tell them, but they are not understanding you properly.

This response expresses your confidence. 

You know this person is manipulative and this is how they get things done. 

6. “You might be true, but I think you’re just boring.” 

They accuse you of not doing what they want.

with this clever response, you show that you’re not sure if you’re lazy or not. 

But it’s sure that they are boring

That you’re not interested in what they suggest to do.

7. “Honestly, I am just saving my energy for something big.” 

A funny comeback to show that you’re not meant for the small things. 

You want to do great things. 

And, you know what you want to do and when.

They might call you lazy for taking a long break. 

But you acknowledge them that it’s a good idea to be lazy sometimes. 

You enjoy doing nothing and that shouldn’t be a matter to anyone. 

11. “The fact is I didn’t find something meaningful to do with my time.”

You value your time and so you don’t want to waste it on just anything.

What To Say When Someone Says “You’re Lazy”?

Just because someone tells you ‘lazy’ doesn’t make you one. 

First, you need to check it yourself, whether you are doing something meaningful in your life or not. 

If you find nothing important you do with your time, you should take it as advice. 

Because here you’re lazy. 

But, when someone calls you ‘lazy’ just because you don’t do what they want or do it at a slow pace, they criticize you anyway. 

When Someone Says You’re Lazy

You know you are not, it’s just their perspective of you at the moment. 

If you keep working and doing something for your life, being called lazy should impact you at all.

And if there is still someone who calls you lazy, you can just ignore their remarks. 

Well, the shared witty and funny comebacks are also your option if you want to say something.

Keep doing the best work, take a break, and work harder again. 

Because you’re not lazy, we know that.
