About the Roast Generator

These are the leaving-do kind: about habits a person would happily admit to, never about appearance, background or anything they cannot change. That line is what separates a roast from an insult, and it is the reason a good roast reads as affection.

A roast works because everyone in the room recognises the truth in it. The ninety unread emails and the four hundred open tabs land because they are true and harmless; anything the person is actually sensitive about does not land, it just hurts.

Read the room. The same line is warm from a close friend and cruel from someone who barely knows the person, and no generator can judge that for you.

How it works

  1. Generate a batch of roasts.

  2. Choose one that fits — these are teasing, not cruel.

  3. Copy it for the speech or the group chat.

Frequently asked questions

What makes a good roast?
It has to be about something the person would happily admit to — the unread emails, the abandoned hobbies, the four hundred open tabs. Everyone recognising the truth in it is what makes it funny rather than cruel.
What should a roast never be about?
Appearance, background, family, or anything the person cannot change or is genuinely sensitive about. Those do not land as jokes; they just hurt, and the room knows immediately.
Are these suitable for a leaving speech?
Yes — that is exactly the register. They are about work habits and harmless quirks rather than anything personal, which is what makes them safe to say in front of a whole office.
How do I make a roast feel affectionate?
Follow it with something sincere. The structure that works is a tease then a genuine compliment, which makes the joke read as familiarity rather than as an attack.
Can I roast someone I do not know well?
Better not to. The same line is warm from a close friend and unkind from a stranger, and the difference is entirely in the relationship rather than in the words.
