Twitter is where you go to see some of the most epic burns in the history of burns.
Whether it's people shutting down Donald Trump or Ryan Reynolds trolling Hugh Jackman, it's always fun to see these one-liners play out.
For one of the best burns in the history of Twitter, allow us to take you back in time to August 15, 2016, and a response to a tweet about climate change posted by the astrophysicists, Katie Mack.
Honestly climate change scares the heck out of me and it makes me so sad to see what we're losing because of it.— Katie Mack (@Katie Mack) 1471273351
That's a fair enough assessment of the situation, which has only gotten worse in the years since Mack posted that tweet.
Still, somewhere from the depths of Twitter, a climate change denier emerged and to make that even more unbearable, it was a mansplainer who told her to "learn some actual science".
Gary Jackson, bless him, obviously didn't do much research into who Mack was before posting the comment, as he would have realised that an astrophysicist would have to know a thing or two about science.
Fortunately for Gary, Mack broke the news to him gently.
@gary4205 I dunno, man, I already went and got a PhD in astrophysics. Seems like more than that would be overkill at this point.— Katie Mack (@Katie Mack) 1471307208
This legendary burn was so good it even prompted some hilarious reactions.
@AstroKatie @gary4205 I've just decided, my daughters are going to be astrophysicists. Awesome. #bestputdownever— Kay Tee 💙 🇬🇧🇩🇪🇪🇺 (@Kay Tee 💙 🇬🇧🇩🇪🇪🇺) 1471336658
One for the ages...
