The people who ask the more stupid/insulting questions are more often that not so oblivious to their comments, they are beyond even the simplest forms of reason. Leaving them baffled by a cleaver retort is your best option. You leave looking like the thoughtful man you are and they just end up having their stupidity confirmed.
Well, if it weren't someone who couldn't even bother to dress herself, I would have. But nothing says "I'm too lazy and undignified even to dress myself" like going out in public in your night clothes. And then to the nerve to actually say something to someone else?
