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.

    Announcers? Like at a sporting event? Or a doctor giving a family a medical update on their family members who just underwent a serious medical procedure? Hmmm.

    "Bob Costas here at St. Mary's Hospital's maternity ward, and I'm checking in with Angela Price who has just given birth to twin girls. Mother and daughters are doing fine, and I'm told dad Steven managed to get Sabrina Carpenter to perform the halftime show. This is a birth for the history books, but now back to you in the studio."

    Doctors only announce that mother and baby are doing fine because they were the only ones experiencing physical and emotional trauma. If the father needs help during the process then he needs a psychologist.

    In general I agree. But just on a side note, when my sister-in-law had her first baby, she was in labor for two days and it was horrible. My brother is a very empathetic person, and I do believe he was somewhat traumatized watching her go through that (and the worry for this baby because where were problems). That's NOT to say that what he went through was anything like what she did. It was so bad for her that she was terrified of having another one. (She did eventually have a second baby and everything went fine.)

    The baby could be born without the father even noticing it. They are not the ones pushing out the baby but here they are wanting CREDIT? For ... existing?

    They want credit for every other bit of minutiae they perform on baby's behalf for the rest of their lives even if it is only financial support. Why are any of us surprised that observing labor would be left off their list of reward obligations???

    I remember a joke about this. A new equipment that makes a father feel the same pain that the mother experiences during childbirth is tested on a couple. After a long very painful labor the mom is destroyed but her husband is relaxed and brags that he didn't feel any pain and why do women complain so much. Then he goes back home for the day all proud of himself. And finds the local plumber collapsed on his driveway.

    Birth notices in the newspapers (Australia) used to note that a baby had been born to the wife of Fred Snoggs. Maybe the gender of the baby, but not the name of the mother/wife. For information, I do a lot of genealogy, and it's very annoying to be unable to see the mother's name. After all, she was there and had a major part to play in the production.
