Looking to roast a guy in a funny, playful, or flirty manner? We’ve got you covered! In this article, we’ve put together the ultimate list of insults and comebacks to roast a friend, crush, sibling, or hater.

1. Are those bowling shoes?
2. Your ego is taller than you.
3. I just know you were a leash kid.
4. You look like you can’t ride a bike.

Steps

Funny Roasts for Guy Friends

1. Drop a lighthearted one-liner to prompt loads of laughter. If you’re trying to roast your buddies in a creative way, joke about their age, appearance, or silly habits or quirks. With that being said, Bilotta says to “respect the other person’s boundaries” and “avoid joking about topics that can be triggering.”^[1] Delivering your line with a smile, giggle, or squeeze on the shoulder can go a long way and reassure them you’re just teasing!
   
   • Go fall into a bucket of slime.
   • You look like a Wii character.
   • You built like a windshield wiper.
   • I just know you were a leash kid.
   • I feel like you’d be really easy to draw.
   • You look like you chew on your straws.
   • You look like you use spray deodorant.
   • I hope you accidentally step on a Lego.
   • You’re as useless as the “g” in “lasagna.”
   • You look like you’d be allergic to peanuts.

   • I’m not bored enough to talk to you right now.
   • Your face looks like a bowl of mashed potatoes.
   • You’re the type of person to respond to spam emails.
   • You’re the human equivalent of a participation award.
   • You’re not stupid—you just have bad luck with thinking.
   • I’ll never forget the first time we met, but I’ll keep trying.

   • You remind me of the cinnamon stick from Apple Jacks.
   • I think you deserve a high five…in the face…with a chair.
   • Every time I have a stick in my hand, you look like a piñata.
   • You’re so ugly that when you take a bath, the water jumps out.
   • Every time I think you can’t get any dumber, you prove me wrong.
   • Our friendship is all about balance. You start talking…I stop listening.
   • You’re not the dumbest person in the world, but you better hope they don’t die.
   • If laziness were a competition, you’d come in second because you’d be too lazy to compete.
   • Yo momma’s so stupid, she put two quarters in her ears and thought she was listening to 50 Cent.

Playful Roasts for a Crush

1. Highlight your crush’s weird quirks or habits to flirt with him. According to Bilotta, "humor is a great way to break the ice and show you're interested in getting to know him better."^[2] Focus on small quirks and habits that your crush chooses to do, instead of things he can’t change about himself. The best way to flirt with a guy is to stick to playful teasing that doesn't take itself too seriously!
   
   • Are those bowling shoes?

   • Your perfume smells so sweet.

   • How does it feel to get mogged all the time?
   • If you had two brains, you’d be twice as stupid.
   • OMG, I have the same necklace from Amazon!
   • I may love to shop, but I’m not buying your crap.
   • I can’t tell what’s worse…Your IQ or your hairline.
   • Remember when I asked for your opinion? Me either.
   • You bring me so much joy…when you leave the room.
   • If you fear success, you’ve got nothing to worry about.
   • Why play hard to get when you’re already hard to want?

   • You must be a magician. How did you escape the circus again?
   • Are you always an idiot, or do you just show off when I’m around?
   • I would say you’re dumb as a rock, but at least a rock can hold the door open.
   • You can be anything you want in life…other than rich, handsome, and successful.
   • I thought you were attractive when I first saw you, but then you opened your mouth.
   • I know your parents told you that you could be anything you wanted, but I’m pretty sure they didn’t mean a douchebag.

Silly Roasts for Brothers

1. Put your sibling in their place with a silly and savage comeback. Whether you’re older or younger, there are tons of lines you can use to roast your brother. Joke about his personality for a classic burn, or remind him that you’re more successful, attractive, and intelligent than he’ll ever be. It’s the perfect way to reignite some friendly sibling rivalry, as long as you avoid his insecurities and keep things respectful.

   • You might be older, but you’re not wiser.
   • You were born first, but I’m still taller than you.

   • I’m sure your friends collectively make fun of you.
   • Congratulations on getting your PhD in annoyance.

   • Did you notice that in every photo before your birth, mom and dad have huge smiles?

   • You must be so proud of yourself! How did you manage to accomplish nothing in 18 years?
   • I’m the reason you were born, and you’re the reason Mom and Dad decided to stop having kids.

Savage Roasts for Haters

1. Come up with a cutthroat comeback to catch your bullies off guard. Are you feeling super, super savage? Save these lines for your opps, or any occasion you need to shut down the conversation. They're guaranteed to make the other person question their existence and create a “mic drop” moment, so use them with extreme caution!
   
   • You look like a “before” photo.

   • You’re the type of person to look up and down before crossing the road.
   • I was going to make a joke about your life, but it looks like life got there first.
   • I was going to roast you, but then I heard burning trash is an environmental hazard.

Mean Roasts to Insult a Man

1. Poke fun at his height, hairline, or ego to shock him into silence. Hide your kids and call emergency services—these burns will definitely bruise his ego! If a man is being straight up disrespectful, cut to the chase with any of these crushing comebacks. He’ll probably be too stunned to speak and remember it for the next 7-8 business days.
   
   • Your ego is taller than you.
   • You look like you can’t swim.
   • You have such dainty hands.
   • I’ve pulled more girls than you.
   • You’re mad at your mom, not me.

   • Was your barber in a rush or something?
   • You can’t talk down to me from that height.
   • You have the emotional depth of a raindrop.
   • Your flirting game is as weak as your hairline.
   • Are you wearing a toupee? It looks so natural!
   • Just remember, my friends call you “which one?”

   • You’re acting way too tall for your height right now.
   • You look like your party trick is spelling Mississippi.
   • Your friends definitely have a group chat without you.
   • You have all these big dreams that amount to nothing.
   • I’m getting the overhead on your bald spots…back up.
   • I’m not arguing with a man that’s looking at me at eye level.

   • Why don’t you take a step back and start acting like your hairline.
   • You look like your favorite machine at the gym is the vending machine.
   • I think it’s great that you don’t let your hairline hold you back from approaching women.

Good Roasts that Rhyme

1. Throw out a rhyming roast to elevate your insult game. If you want to win the title of roast king, pull out your paper and pen and start scheming. Replace the words in a common nursery rhyme, or get creative and come up with your own rhyming one-liner. Think of the process as writing a rhyming poem, or use the following options for inspiration:
   
   • Hickory dickory dock, you built like a Roblox.
   • Fee-fi-fo-fum, your breath stank so chew some gum.
   • Twinkle, twinkle little star, you’re the definition of subpar.
   • Eenie meenie miny moe. Your face looks like my big toe.
   • If I’m a 5, then you’re a 2. Faces like yours belong in a zoo.
   • Twinkle, twinkle little star, I want to run you over with my car.
   • Roses are red, violets are blue. If I had a brick, I’d throw it at you.
   • Roses are red, violets are blue. I thought I was ugly until I met you.
   • Roses are red, the sky is blue. I mind my own business, why don’t you?
   • Your comebacks are a little thin, maybe they got lost in your double chin.
   • I’m the type of person to laugh at mistakes, so sorry if I laugh at your face.
   • Roses are red, violets are blue. I have three fingers, the third one’s for you.
   • Roses are red, violets are blue. If you don’t shut up, I’m going to punch you.
   • Roses are red, violets are blue. The smell of rotten eggs reminds me of you.
   • Roses are red, violets are blue. The bottom of my laptop is still hotter than you.
   • Roses are red, violets are blue. I’d rather be single than with someone like you.
   • I’m trying not to make fun of you, but you can’t even count higher than number two.
   • What do you mean people call you fine? That outfit you’re wearing is a serious crime.

Tips

• If you’re roasting a guy over text, Bilotta recommends using emojis "to add a playful tone to your messages and help convey your sense of humor.”^[3] You could send a 😉, 😈, or 😝 to lighten the mood and show you're not being serious.
• If you accidentally hit a sore spot, own up to your mistake and make a genuine apology. You could say, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to take things too far, and I should be more careful with my words.”
• When you’re joking around with someone, Bilotta says to “be mindful of any signals that the other person may not be comfortable with your humor.”^[4] Pay attention to their body language and response to see if you’re respecting their boundaries.
• If you’re teasing someone in a group setting, be sure to spread your jokes around. Teasing one person can hurt their feelings and make them feel singled out, so have fun roasting everyone.

Clever, creative, & hilarious emoji combos to use in texts and captions

Looking to spice up your texts and showcase your humor on social media? We’ve got you covered! In this article, we’re sharing the funniest emoji combos that are currently trending on TikTok. We’ve also included the meanings of each emoji combination, as well as examples of how to use them so you can make all your friends and followers laugh.

Funniest Emoji Combos (Copy & Paste)

• 🫷😣🫸 = I need space
• 😯☝️😐✊ = Nevermind
• 👁👄👁 = Shock or disbelief
• 🍿🤏😯 = Drama is going down
• 👉 👈 = I’m feeling shy or nervous
• ☕️🐸 = But that’s none of my business
• 🧎🏼‍♀️🏌️‍♀️ = Bonking someone on the head

Steps

👉 👈 (feeling shy)

1. Use 👉 👈 if you want to ask a soft yet risky question. This emoji combo looks like someone is twiddling their fingers together while they work up the courage to say what’s on their mind.^[1] It’s perfect if you want to admit your feelings to your crush or express that you’re nervous. You can also pair it with the 🥺 (pleading face) emoji to “simp” for someone, or give them excess attention.
   
   • “Do you want to grab dinner next Friday night? 👉 👈”
   • “I just wanted to tell you that I think you’re super pretty 👉 👈🥺”

🚪🏃‍♀️💨 (time to leave)

1. Text 🚪🏃‍♀️💨 if you’re heading out or running late to an event. Think of this emoji combination as another way of saying “I gotta go.” Whether you forgot to pick someone up or you've decided to leave a lame event, it tells the other person that you’re dashing out the door.
   
   • “I’m running behind, but about to leave my house 🚪🏃‍♀️💨”
   • “Getting ready to leave 🚪🏃‍♀️💨 Do you need me to bring anything?”

🍿🤏😯 (drama is going down)

1. Send 🍿🤏😯 when something big is happening. This emoji combo can be used to convey shock, interest, or eagerness for details. Let’s say your friend is spilling some tea. Replying with 🍿🤏😯 is like saying “No way! Tell me more.”
   
   • Them: “Katie is breaking up with Matt right now!”
     You: “🍿🤏😯”

👁👄👁 (blank stare)

1. Text 👁👄👁 when you’re in shock or disbelief. With wide eyes and a slack-jawed mouth, the 👁👄👁 emoji combination conveys a surprised or bewildered look.^[2] It’s sometimes used to connote the phrase “it is what it is,” meaning you have to accept a frustrating situation because there’s nothing you can do to change it.^[3]
   
   • “Did you see the election results? 👁👄👁”
   • “Rumor has it that Taylor and Travis broke up 👁👄👁”

🕳👨‍🦯 (I didn’t see anything)

1. Use 🕳👨‍🦯 to indicate you’re ignoring something. When you come across something you don’t want to accept, 🕳👨‍🦯 means you’re pretending not to see it.^[4] This could refer to red flags in a relationship or parts of your life you’re unsatisfied with.
   
   • “Me ignoring all his red flags 🕳👨‍🦯”
   • “I’ve learned to dissociate so I’m not sad 24/7 🕳👨‍🦯”

👩🤏👩‍🦲 (wig snatched)

1. Use 👩🤏👩‍🦲 when you’re amazed, stunned, or awestruck. The slang phrase “snatched” means something is fierce or “on point,” usually in terms of personal appearance.^[5] If your friend is wearing a cute outfit or their makeup looks picture perfect, for example, use 👩🤏👩‍🦲 to compliment them.
   
   • Them: “Did you see Rihanna’s look at the Met Ball?”
     You: “👩🤏👩‍🦲”
     Them: “I KNOW!”
     You: “She ATE and left no crumbs.”

🐂💩 (bulls***)

1. Reply with 🐂💩 when someone is talking nonsense. If someone is lying to you or being overly dramatic for no reason, use 🐂💩 to call out their behavior. It’s short, simple, and straight to the point!
   
   • Them: “Did you hear they’re trying to revoke her gold medal?”
     You: “🐂💩”

😎🤏😳🕶🤏 (excuse me?)

1. Use 😎🤏😳🕶🤏 to say “repeat that?” or “what did I just see?”{endbold} This emoji combination is the equivalent of doing a double take in real life. It conveys shock and disbelief, especially if the other person does something “sus” or questionable.
   
   • Them: “I kissed Henry…”
     You: “😎🤏😳🕶🤏”

👉🙄👈 (not listening)

1. Reply with 👉🙄👈 to ignore someone over text. If someone keeps giving you unsolicited advice or bringing up things you don’t care about, 👉🙄👈 is a quick way to move onto the next topic. It can come off as rude or childish, so avoid using it if the other person is being serious.
   
   • “La la la la la la 👉🙄👈”
   • “I can’t hear you 👉🙄👈”

😃👉🚪 (you can leave)

1. Send 😃👉🚪 if someone shares an unpopular opinion. Most people use 😃👉🚪 to joke around with their friends, especially if they make a controversial statement. It’s a great way to make someone laugh and inject some lighthearted energy into the conversation.
   
   • Them: “Shrek 3 is the best.”
     You: “😃👉🚪”
     Them: “?”
     You: “Shrek 2 is superior.”

☕🤏 (the tea is piping)

1. Respond with ☕🤏 if someone spills some juicy gossip. This emoji combo is another way of saying “the tea is piping hot.” In slang, the term “tea” refers to gossip or inside information.^[6] So, shoot a ☕🤏 if someone shares news that’s particularly exciting, scandalous, or revealing.
   
   • Them: “OMG, Blaire kissed Chris last night!”
     You: “☕🤏”

😌💅 (feeling pretty or sassy)

1. Use 😌💅 when you’re feeling extra confident. Did you just get a fresh manicure or blowout? Drop the 😌💅 emoji combo to say you’re feeling fabulous! It can also convey sass, nonchalance, or self-confidence, especially if you’re entering your baddie era.
   
   • “Just went to the salon to get a lash lift 😌💅”
   • “I told him that I don’t play games and he better not embarrass me 😌💅”

😃🖕(does it look like I care?)

1. Drop 😃🖕 to flip someone off in a funny way. It’s a silly and sarcastic response you can use if someone is teasing you or being a little annoying. Some people use it to express nonchalance, especially if the other person brings up something embarrassing from the past.
   
   • Them: “Your burnt cookies were a hit at the housewarming.”
     You: “😃🖕”

🕳🪂 (bye or alright)

1. Use 🕳🪂 to say goodbye a silly way. This emoji combination features someone skydiving into a black hole, which can represent removing yourself from a situation.^[7] If the other person is getting upset or defensive, you can send 🕳🪂 to calmly exit the conversation and give them time to cool down.
   
   • Them: “You should have told me what he said.”
     You: “I didn’t want to ruin your night.”
     Them: “That’s irrelevant.”
     You: “🕳🪂”

😯☝️😐✊ (nevermind)

1. Send 😯☝️😐✊ to take back what you said. You can use this emoji combo in place of “nevermind” to save time and space while you’re texting. If you want the other person to ignore a previous text you sent, 😯☝️😐✊ can also be used to move forward in the conversation.
   
   • Them: “I think we should take the train to Boston.”
     You: “...”
     Them: “?”
     You: “😯☝️😐✊”

☕️🐸 (but that’s none of my business)

1. Send ☕️🐸 after making a shady comment about someone. This silly emoji combo is based on a viral meme of Kermit the Frog sipping tea. People say “but that’s none of my business” after making a snide remark about someone, usually if they do something stupid or questionable.^[8]
   
   • “I heard they were caught stealing from CVS but ☕️🐸”
   • “Julia’s mad at Beth because she was flirting with her man ☕️🐸”

🙄🤝😐 (okay, I guess)

1. Use 🙄🤝😐 to reluctantly agree with someone. It’s the perfect response when someone forces you to do something you don’t want to do, such as going out when you feel like staying in. Think of it as another way of saying, “okay, I guess” or “only if you really need me to.”^[9]
   
   • Them: “We should go clubbing this weekend.”
     You: “🙄🤝😐”

🛌🏃‍♀️ (time for bed)

1. Send 🛌🏃‍♀️ when you’re sleepy and want to end the chat. If you’re texting someone and it’s getting late, use 🛌🏃‍♀️ to tell them you’re heading to bed. It’s a simple way to end the conversation and imply you’ll talk to them later.
   
   • “Talk to you tomorrow 🛌🏃‍♀️”
   • “I’m heading to bed soon 🛌🏃‍♀️”

🛌🤺 (wake up)

1. Send 🛌🤺 if someone isn’t responding to you. If you’ve texted someone multiple times and they haven’t replied (or you think they’ve slept past all their alarms), 🛌🤺 is a funny way to say “wake up, sleepyhead.” Feel free to blow up their phone if you’ve made plans with them or need to share urgent news.
   
   • “HELLLLOOOOO? 🛌🤺”
   • “You need to wake up!!!! 🛌🤺”

🤸‍♀️🚊 (secondhand embarrassment)

1. Use 🤸‍♀️🚊 if you see something cringy and want to share it. This emoji combo features a person cartwheeling in front of a train, which can symbolize the feeling of wanting to die from embarrassment. Send it to someone if you come across flat-out foolish behavior.
   
   • “Just witnessed someone spill coffee down their shirt 🤸‍♀️🚊”
   • “This drunk girl just crashed into a bunch of bar stools 🤸‍♀️🚊”

🤡🪞 (look in the mirror)

1. Send 🤡🪞 to tell someone they’re acting ridiculous. The 🤡 (clown face) emoji represents silliness or foolishness, while the 🪞 (mirror) emoji represents awareness and self-reflection. Together, these two emojis can be used to playfully tease someone and tell them they’re “acting like a clown,” or being foolish.^[10]
   
   • Them: “I’m so mad I decided to get a bob. I should have listened to you and got a hime cut instead.”
     You: “🤡🪞”

🦗🦟🦗🦟🦗🦟 (throwing it back)

1. Use 🦗🦟🦗🦟🦗🦟 when you’re dancing and enjoying yourself. Whether you’re twerking, booty clapping, or busting out random moves, the 🦗🦟🦗🦟🦗🦟 emoji combination indicates you’re having a good time. Send it the next time you hit the club or throw a dance party in your bedroom.
   
   • “I was twerking 🦗🦟🦗🦟🦗🦟 at the club.”
   • “Megan Thee Stallion got me like 🦗🦟🦗🦟🦗🦟”

🙄🤚 (um, anyways)

1. Drop 🙄🤚 to quickly dismiss someone over text. If you don’t agree with what someone is saying or they rudely interrupt you, 🙄🤚 is a sassy way to shut them down. It will probably offend the other person or make them feel some type of way, so reserve it for the times you couldn't care less.
   
   • “Um chile anyways 🙄🤚”
   • “Back to what I was talking about 🙄🤚”

🎷🐛 (jazz music)

1. Send 🎷🐛 when you’re listening to jazz music. This emoji combination doesn’t have much use in everyday conversation, but it’s so cute and silly that we had to include it! Text it when you want to invite someone to a jazz show, or when you’re talking about the genre in general.
   
   • “Ya like jazz? 🎷🐛”
   • “Want to go to a jazz club this weekend? 🎷🐛”

🌚🥂🌝 (cheers, bestie)

1. Use 🌚🥂🌝 to raise a toast to your BFF and brighten their day. If you want to celebrate your bestie’s success and make them feel good, 🌚🥂🌝 is the perfect emoji combo to shower them with love. Feel free to switch out the moon emojis with other emojis that suit your personalities.
   
   • “Cheers to being single in the city 🌚🥂🌝”
   • “Here’s to being thirty, flirty, and thriving 👸🏻🥂👸🏾”

🎤🦆 (talk your s***)

1. Text 🎤🦆 to encourage someone to share their thoughts. This emoji combo is a fan favorite on TikTok because the mic reaches the duck’s beak perfectly. Send it whenever your friend is feeling stressed and you want to encourage them to say what’s on their mind.
   
   • Them: “I’m low key beefing with my roommate rn…”
     You: “🎤🦆”

🚂💭🚫🧐 (lost my train of thought)

1. Use 🚂💭🚫🧐 if you suddenly forget what you were going to say. For the times you can’t think straight, 🚂💭🚫🧐 is a funny way to say your mind is going blank. Use it when you’re in the middle of a conversation and your concentration is interrupted.
   
   • “Sorry, I just lost my train of thought 🚂💭🚫🧐”
   • “I completely blanked during my interview 🚂💭🚫🧐”

😐😶😶‍🌫️🫥 (Irish goodbye)

1. Send 😐😶😶‍🌫️🫥 if you’re leaving a party without saying goodbye. An “Irish goodbye” is when you leave a social gathering without telling anyone.^[11] It’s moderately socially acceptable, so send 😐😶😶‍🌫️🫥 when you feel like vanishing or silently exiting a party.
   
   • “I left the party like 😐😶😶‍🌫️🫥”
   • “Me leaving any work function: 😐😶😶‍🌫️🫥”
