Back in the late-90s, everyone and their granny was humming along to Hanson’s catchy hit “MMMBop.” Most of the brothers were kids at the time it became a massive hit. After that hit, however, the band seemed to disappear from the face of the musical world.

Well, it looks like we found at least one of the lost Hanson brothers. At least that’s the conclusion one Reddit user came to when the guy above posted a “roast me” request. We see the resemblance.

The subreddit r/roastme is known for some clever roasts and savage burns. People put up their pictures for all sorts of reasons, but we imagine most of them do so because they’re able to laugh at themselves. Hopefully, that’s the case with this next guy.

Soon after posting his pic, this guy got a harsh burn – someone compared the way his head is shaped to the way a balloon looks. Maybe that could be useful for getting a role in the sequel to Up.

When this happy-go-lucky guy asked for a roast, he probably wasn’t expecting people to concoct a whole backstory for him. Most roasts focus on making fun of physical features (overdone eyebrows, questionable tattoos, etc.), but this one focused on employment.

To be honest, we think the Reddit user above is onto something. He looks like he would be a great assistant manager – and all you need is a magic lamp for him to suddenly appear! Who wouldn’t want that kind of convenience?

As we’ve seen from above, people volunteer to be roasted for all sorts of reasons. Mostly, they’re curious about what others think of them or they want to laugh at themselves. The security guard below, however, looks very serious.

We’re surprised people glossed over the large mustache or the security guard suit with the attached radio. That being said, they managed to capture the seriousness of his look by saying he never uses “yes” or “no” – only “affirmative” or “negative.”

Many of us have fond memories of stretching and molding playdough while in kindergarten. We would make it into whatever form our minds could dream up – most likely a blobby mess. Although it’s meant for kids, it’s a great material for all ages.

Unfortunately, for the “roast me” volunteer above, some savage Redditor noticed a similarity between his body shape and playdough. Oomph, that was harsh! We just hope the roastee molds his response in a way that takes the roast lightly.

Some people (especially extroverts) love working in customer service jobs because they get to talk and solve problems all day long. Other people (most often introverts) don’t love customer service jobs. They still do them for the money, but they’re far from excited about it.

The guy above clearly falls into camp two – he’s not pumped about his coffee shop gig. He wrote the “roast me” on the company cup and someone chimed in about his receding hairline and career aspirations.

Many of us have two selves. The first is the one we portray to the world. The second is the one we keep to ourselves. They aren’t always the same. For example, the guy below plays the “hardcore” tough guy with tattoos and a tank top.

However, when alone, he seems to be full of soft-serve ice cream – not exactly a rugged diet. We don’t know how well the comment went over with the guy above but we do know that soft-serve ice cream is delicious.

We are all aware that humans are using a lot of plastic – many would say too much. It’s in shopping bags, drinking straws, and beauty products. Many argue that we should reduce our use of plastic.

The plastic in the comment above doesn’t refer to shopping bags or plastic straws, but to plastic surgery. From a wordplay perspective, it’s a clever burn, but it’s also a roast that’s a bit too mean for our liking. We wonder how she took the burn.

This next one reminds us of the “you must wear a nametag at family reunions” post above. It’s about people without an overly distinctive look. For better or worse, some people just don’t have strong features that stick out.

Saying you don’t need camouflage to blend in is pretty harsh, but she also asked to be roasted. On top of that, she’s tough enough to be in the army, so we imagine she took this roast with a grain of salt.

Makeup is perfect for hiding the blemishes and imperfections that you don’t want others to see – acne being chief among them. That being said, so many people use makeup that they can easily notice the techniques in others. The woman who posted the “roast me” picture below learned that out the hard way.

Some clever Redditor called out her use of makeup in a less than kind way – “I can literally hear your acne screaming for air!” Although harsh, we hope she took it light-heartedly.
