Many people perceive roasting as an act of love. The premise here is that witty, playful teasing among close kin without malicious intent can build trust and signal acceptance.
In the case of strangers online, slightly spicy banter can make for hilariously memorable exchanges. If you’re on the receiving end of epic burns, it can also be good training for not taking yourself too seriously.
So, without further ado, here are some of the best roast exchanges Bored Panda has collected for 2025. A few of these burns are so sick, they may require some ointment.

Husband Of The Year Gets Called Out On His Misogyny

As a woman who has just started my period at 2am and is doubled up with cramps, may this man have explosive diarrhoea every day of his life.
There is often a negative connotation to teasing. But as you can see in the following posts, these banter sessions are not intended to be painful or destructive. Experts describe this as prosocial teasing, which builds trust and affection while testing each other’s boundaries and not going overboard.

I have always been confused as to why AA should promote the idea of fixing one addîction by substitution of another. Why not teach self-reliance instead?

Prosocial teasing has its benefits, according to psychology researcher Dr. Peter Gray. For one, it is an expression of acceptance of one’s character by looking at a person’s flaws in a lighthearted manner.
“Teasing can be a playful way of expressing that knowledge (of someone’s strengths and weaknesses) and thereby reinforcing the friendship,” Dr. Gray explained.

What Is The Obsession With Us Needing Them?

In a survival situation what can men do that women cannot? I'd say both are in trouble unless survival skills have been learnt. And specific genitals are not required to learn such skills.

I hate how people take the true meaning of Christmas, gift giving, family time, lots of food, and then try and shoehorn Jesus into the holiday.
Playful jabs are also a way to deflate egos. According to Dr. Gray, these banters are also a way of reminding someone of their flaws, which keeps them grounded. This may be especially true when dealing with someone who appears arrogant.
As Dr. Gray explained, everyone has their moments of arrogance, and light teasing can help bring that person back to reality.

Studies have also shown that roasting a romantic partner may be healthy for the relationship. It primarily argues that humor is integral to strengthening connections. According to the findings, women reported more satisfaction in their relationships when their partners could make fun of themselves.
"Earlier studies have shown that people are looking for a partner with a sense of humour and who enjoys a laugh," said psychology professor René Proyer, who was one of the researchers.

However, the researchers also offered a caveat: crossing that thin line between playful roasting and ridicule – especially when doing so to others – can strain relationships.
"These three characteristics are personality traits that can occur at the same time, to varying degrees and in different combinations,” Proyer explained. “They can range, for example, from making harmless jokes to ridiculing others. All of these characteristics are normal, up to a certain point.”

Who wants a woman with an independent mind? Let's just find domestic and reproductive slaves to satisfy our needs. If men want an intellectual conversation we can always get paralytically drunk down the local and tell each other how we would manage the sports team we like.
