O god, I could think of so many comebacks to that!

"That's probably that last thing you'd say every time you were in bed with me."

"How macho of you to say that. You probably tried to say it when we were in the bedroom, but we all know you can't talk when your mouth is full."

"Hmmm. Tell me, what exactly are you to trying to compensate for by saying that?" (as I tell him this I'd visibly glance down at his crotch)
