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.

    You go at the sex at your own pace. If you're desperate for action at 16 (like me) or want to wait and figure things out (probably would have been the better option), or haven't found a companion yet or aren't even looking. All of the options are valid, and so are all the ones not listed.

    Why tf are people calling it body count, now? That's so much worse than all the older ones, like "notches on their bedpost". Also, don't worry about the people that think you need a high "body count". They're probably carrying around a high viral load, too.

    This nonsense is so dumb. Ask people over 70 and they will say they had to keep sexual activity a secret or else be labeled a sl*t and used goods. People over 50 had both. Was shamed one decade for having sex outside of marriage and then it changed to laughing at people who were still virgins. Dammed if u do dammed if u don't. Your "body count" is no ones business. Do what you feel is right.

    Have sex with as little or as much people as you like. As long as you and the other person are both enjoying it, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. And there is nothing wrong with not wanting to have sex (yet). And wanting to have sex but not yet having been able to find someone who wants to have sex with you, is of course painful (because it's difficult if you want something but it feels out of each), but it's not a reason to feel ashamed or to be judged.

    Speaking as someone who worked in a blood bank, having a low "body count 🙄" is a very good thing! You guys would not believe the amount of first time/new donors that test positive for stuff that they don't even know that they have. I was already happy to be Ace (no, I'm not a Virgin and Yes, I've tried it") but 14 years at that job taught me that if you're having sex...for the love of God use a condom!! It's going to sound paranoid, but at least try to occasionally have some type of bloodwork done. Even if they aren't specifically testing for certain things Like HIV, Hep A, B or C it will still show alterations in your bloodwork. Some people are asymptomatic and may not show any signs that they're sick. We've also discovered people with Autoimmune Disorders, Sickle Cell Anemia, various forms of Cancer, etc. that weren't showing signs yet and was able to catch it early enough that getting started on treatment plans increased their chances of survival or improved quality of life.

    If you don't have a doctor then a cheap way to get basic bloodwork is to go to a blood bank and try to donate Blood, Plasma or Platelets. All blood is screened and they will notify you of any issues that they may find. Do NOT go to Centers that pay for donations, because they are not required by the FDA to notify any donors of potential problems. Also, per FDA regulations any center that gives you monetary compensation for a donation is not allowed to be used by ANY hospitals or clinics and is unable to be transfused to a patient. That is an actual rule that is set by the International Blood Bank that is used in various developed countries, so it's not just an American regulation. That was established due to tainted blood being sent to undeveloped countries primarily by Pharmaceutical Companies and Centers that are pay for donors. Research any centers before you donate to make sure they meet the IBB if you're outside the US or FDA standards if you're inside the US.

    Having sex with lots of different people, doesn't mean that you have no self respect. In fact, if you decide that your own desires and pleasure are more important than society's expectations and other people's judgement, that can be sign of great self respect.

    No but that's legit delicious. My mother in law, who is 78 and dislikes everything except this, told me about it. Sounds weird, but it works.

    Even i hated them 90s/2000s brows and I'm a man. Gay one, but still. I had a friend who would wax them to an inch of their life and they would grow in fast. One day i called her 5 o'clock eyebrow and she punched me in the chest. Hard 😆
