When will these haters learn not to mess with Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi?! After all, the Jersey Shore star, 31, is notorious for serving up epic clapbacks to anyone who comes for her — or her family! Most recently, Snooki was forced to shut down a troll who questioned her marriage to Jionni LaValle. Scroll through the gallery below to get the full scoop.

On Sunday, August 11, the longtime reality TV personality took to Instagram to share an adorable boat selfie. Nothing out of the ordinary, right? Right! It just so happened that in this particular snapshot her hubby was in the background.

Instead of gushing over Jionni’s rare appearance, one person decided to be, er, rude AF. “Wow. I didn’t think ya man existed anymore,” they wrote.

Before we get into Snooki’s clapback, let’s take a moment to evaluate their statement, shall we? Considering Nicole just gave birth to her third child with Jionni, 32, on May 30, it’s *very* clear that he does, in fact, exist.

Unsurprisingly, Nicole was equally as annoyed as we are and wrote, “Yeah, because I don’t post pictures of him to the world that totally means he vanished from this universe.” Boom, take that!

Unfortunately, though, the backlash didn’t stop there. Another hater decided to comment on the fact that Nicole looked as though she’d been drinking in the selfie. *Alex, we’ll take unsolicited opinions for 500, please.*

“You look wasted,” they commented, along with an eye roll emoji. No tea, no shade, but we’ve seen Snooki wasted — a.k.a. when she got arrested on Jersey Shore — she doesn’t look the least bit tipsy in the photo, just saying!

“So go away. I’m not gonna stop drinking my wine juice just because [your] stranger ass is butt hurt. Get over it and stop following me?” Snooki replied. Once again, ladies and gentlemen, that’s how it’s freakin’ done.

But wait … there’s more. Apparently, one fan doesn’t understand why Snooki feels the need to clapback at these people.

“Why do you only respond to negative comments? Why not converse with fans instead of haters?” they questioned. Y’all … can you believe that someone actually has a problem with Snooki defending herself? Sigh.

Ironically enough, Nicole decided not to respond to this person’s line of questioning. However, plenty of fans stepped in to defend her.

“Because that’s what she wants to do! Let folks be,” one user commented. “What are you talking about? She always responds to fans,” added another.

A third person chimed in with, “She comments back to more than just hate!” while a fourth echoed, “Who cares? She can do what she wants.”

She can do what she wants, indeed! Snooki is never afraid to be her 100 percent authentic self — no matter how graphic! Case in point: She recently opened up about having sex (with her very real husband) following giving birth.

“Medically, they say you have to wait, like, six weeks. And I waited the six weeks [after the two other births] because I ripped,” Snooki confessed during an episode of the “Women On Top” podcast.

“This one, I didn’t rip probably because I had two kids, so my vagina is huge, I guess,” Nicole noted. See what we mean about being authentic? *Pauses to blush.* In conclusion: Snooki is Snooki and she’s not going to change for anyone!
