Everyone loves a good roast. Just ask Jeff Ross.


Jeff Ross is a big-time celebrity who makes heaps of money from his hilarious celebrity roasts. Jeff has led roasts on everyone from Donald Trump to Justin Bieber, and they are so funny, that watching one has caused people to literally go to the hospital after laughing so hard their lungs exploded. Jeff is the undisputed King of Comedy.

Urban Dictionary defines "roast" as:

To humorously mock or humiliate someone with a well-timed joke, diss or comeback.
Noun form: the aforementioned joke, diss or comeback.
See also: sizzle

Roasts are good ol' fashioned fun, but sometimes, they can get ugly. In order to roast someone well and kindly, here's what you gotta do:

1. Find A Target

Got a good buddy with thick skin or maybe someone you hate with thin skin? Get a big group of people, put them all in a room, and then sit your Roast Target down in the front of the room for all to see. It's time to get this party started.

2. Look At Them Closely

When you want to roast someone, one of the first things you should do is just look at them. Stare at them for a while and take note of their appearance. If they have a fault, take note--this will be good material for your friendly, good-natured roast.

3. Talk To Them For 5 Minutes

Talk to them! You gotta know your target before you can properly roast them. Take five minutes to delve deep into their psyche. Figure our what their bad habits, embarrassing anecdotes, and negative attributes are. This will be useful.

4. Use Your Data to Attack Their Biggest Insecurities

Now that you've gathered your information, it's time to ROAST. Take what your target hates about themselves and expose these things in front of your target and large audience full of family, friends, and strangers. Everyone will love it.

5. Wink

Winking is a very playful gesture and it lets your target know that this is all just a big joke between pals. No harm, no foul!

6. Shake Hands

If, by some longshot, your cute lil wink wasn't enough to keep your target's soul from crushing under the weight of painful jokes and insults, there's one thing that will always cheer them up: a firm handshake. Once you finish your roast, you approach your target cautiously, as not to spook them, and then give their hand a gentle, reassuring squeeze. They will immediately understand that you never meant them any harm. This handshake is crucial.

7. Leave

Once you've shaken your target's hand and everyone in the audience is giving you a standing O, your work is officially done. Get on out of there and start looking for your next victim.


And that's how you give someone a nice, good roast! Try these out TODAY (just not on me!)!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
