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.

Not going to ask her what she wanted. I bet that will come back to haunt him in family arguments in the future.

    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.

    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.

    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.
