With a 280-character limit, there's not much room for long-winded stories, explanations or jokes on X. The platform, formerly known as Twitter, has become renowned for funny, fast and fabulous clapbacks, one-liners, and witty remarks. If someone offends you, you'll need to think on your feet, and out the box, if you want to respond. Lest the insult becomes history in a matter of minutes.
As always, X users were on top form in 2024, with a bunch of epic roasts that left burn marks right into the new year. Many didn't hold back, and dished out the sassiest, snarkiest, most savage snapbacks for those who dared to troll them. So good they were that someone out there just had to screenshot. Bored Panda has scoured the net for the best posts of people getting roasted better than a Thanksgiving turkey.

See, I hate people who go to someone else and expect them to go real cheap because it’s “easy work”. If you’re gonna ask other people to do your chores, you should expect to have to pay for it. It’s clearly not work you *want* to do, which is why you’re not doing it.

The kid's got a hobby that will develop their brain, rather than one that stands a good chance of giving them a traumatic brain injury. Sounds like a win to me.
If your offspring takes part in a r0obotics tournament it seems to me like something you could be proud of.
My sister did lego robotics in high school and is now an engineer. Someone she knew played football and is now a brain donor 🤷♂️
Load More Replies...Btw. Don't push your kids to become pro in any sports but especially not in American football or something else that can damage them permanently.
Some kid would rather use their heads in a constructive way. Not a destructive way.
Hey about those Legos, I've always loved Legos but my parents were the ones that encouraged be to build and display complex sets designed for adults and me and my legal guardian (who I call pop pop) have a hobby where I build sets and he watches, it's fun leave us alone mate
Oh, that’s a bit odd. I guess just try to ignore him and don’t let him ruin Lego for you.
Load More Replies...I remember one guy at work whose young daughter was playing soccer and taking ballet lessons. He was going to make her give up ballet in favor of soccer. Wasn’t going to “let” her do ballet. Not going to ask her what she wanted. I bet that will come back to haunt him in family arguments in the future.
My husband has a daughter that liked basketball and dance. Started to be a financial and scheduling problem. Daughter was presented a choice . You can go all in on either one. We don't care which. She's 32 now and coaches high school basketball. She's an awesome role model.
Load More Replies...They're actually just bummed they can't play with the LEGO themselves.
Projecting much? He might be thinking that doesn't mean the other dads are.
I believe they are talking about FLL(First Lego League) Which is quite fun, I've been on an FLL team before. Everyone is happy and excited. That Jesse guy? He's lying. He may think that, but no one else does.
For my sons, I'll take Pokemon or Legos any day over an activity that frequently results in concussions and other life-threatening injuries. And if they're competing in a LEGO robotics tournament, they'll be much more likely to have a long, lucrative career and healthy life.
What! You're at a Lego robotics tournament with your kid? I thought there might be a golf game you had to be at.
I don't get this father. Doesn't he just love seeing his child enjoy himself? When my child gets enthousiastic about something, it rubs off on me, it's contagious. P.e. i wouldn't have chosen the drums myself, but my 15yo is passionate, absolutely in his element playing drums and i love that.
Many parents are like that. They don't see kids as people with their own feelings and wishes, but like an extension of themselves that will fulfill the goals and wishes they couldn't.
Load More Replies...My sports heroes were Ayrton Senna and Dale Earnhardt. Both gone far too soon.
The skills learned in Lego construction will last a lifetime and are applicable to many situations. Playing a game gives you sporadic "fun" (I assume not all players are on the field at the same time) and once you're out of childhood, that's just memories. No job skills, no lifeskills etc. Work their brains, not just their bodies.
One of my greatest fears is that my son would really like football or worse:become a football player.
ah yes. because running about and kicking a ball is such a transferable skill that will help them in their future career.
And those kids have a way better chance at a career in professional football...
If I had a kid into STEM to the point where they are in a robotics tournament, I would be very happy.
So if something can cause permanent brain damage you'd want your kid to do it?
I've never understood the attraction of spending two hours running around a field chasing a ball, but some guys seem to get almost religious about it. And what's this male obsession with balls all about?
those lego robotics kids will grow up to be the engineers that make you and those fathers obsolete in your jobs.
IMO, Jesse Kelly is thinking more about the potential earnings from a son who plays pro football at a high level. The fact that this is statistically unlikely is irrelevant.
The STEM kids are smarter than most of the jocks and can also get college scholarships. My oldest son was on a FIRST Robotics team in highschool and is now an engineer and runs a team that is all private or homeschooled kids. He was also in taekwondo so my STEM who is also a black belt can kick the jocks butts.
This father typifies American thinking: do something others would see as “cool” rather than developing your intellect. Also, realize that this is a parent that thinks this way; schools aren’t the problem, it’s American culture and attitude towards thinking and learning.

"Can You Do This Report With Someone Who Doesn't Have That British Accent?"
English was imported to Britain by the immigrants we now call "Anglo-Saxons" - when Britain was Britannia, its inhabitants spoke the ancestors of modern Welsh, Irish, and so on..The Romans left, law and order broke down, and a bunch of illegal immigrants came over from Europe and wrecked the place - honestly, I don't understand why the anti-EU types here in the UK aren't campaigning to get rid of English so we can return to a proper British language like Cymraeg (that's Welsh for Welsh). Some of what you've just read might have been written in jest. In any case, it's been the British Broadcasting Corporation since 1927.
