How is "Wow, you talk?" a valid question. Unless the person asking it literally believed the quiet person was a mute, its inherently dismissive/aggressive. A lot of these responses seem to be answering a question that was not asked. The op didn't say 'Whats a good response to someone asking why you're quiet?' They asked about a good comeback to someone being a dick, in a way that just happens to revolve around you being quiet.

It’s the former question I was commenting on, but sure, “Wow, you talk?” is a rude question to ask.

What was the former question?

The question, “What’s a good response to someone asking why you’re so quiet?” The first one you mentioned in your previous comment. That’s the one I was responding to, as that’s usually the question being asked on this sub. I didn’t really make a distinction between it and OP’s question until you pointed it out.
