7 targets Michelle Wolf took aim at during the White House correspondents’ dinner

Probably would have, but the First Fart was outta town.

 

Here's more:

 

Face the obvious fact that chicken Trump was too cowardly to attend the dinner and sent his women to take the heat he was too yellow to take himself. The obvious track of the American Chicken.

 

It was 7 pm DST on a Saturday evening on the left coast.

The W.H. Correspondent Dinners use to be family prime time event broadcasted on television for decades.

Rule # 1
The person doing the roasting should be a personal friend of the person being roasted.


How to Roast Someone

Poking a little fun at a friend or co-worker during a roast can give everyone a good laugh, especially if the person being roasted is a good sport. You do need to know where to draw the line, though, as you don't want to damage your relationship with the person. Since the fine line separating funny from nasty isn’t the same for everyone, you should take the time to consider the person you’ll be roasting, the topics you should (and shouldn’t) cover, and how to deliver your zings just right.

Watch other roasts for inspiration. If you don't have much experience with roasts, take some time to do research. Watch roasts of other people and figure out the techniques people use to get the most laughs. You can find roasts of celebrities on comedy channels or on the internet.

• 
  
  
  • Keep in mind that professional roasts may go a bit farther than you should, depending on your situation. For instance, if you're roasting your boss, you may need to tone it down a lot.

Think about odd habits or quirks. Write down anything the person does that's a bit crazy or silly. Maybe the person has a habit of only eating food on separate plates or only getting in the elevator if there are fewer than five people on it. These little habits can be great for filling out a roast.

• 
  
  
  • For example, if the person you're roasting loves peanut butter and bologna sandwiches, that's a little outside of the norm and people may find it funny. However, if the person likes to send mean messages to people, that's not as fun. It goes against the norm, but it also causes emotional harm to people.

Recall notable memories. Another good source for a roast is interesting interactions you've had with the person. Everyone has days where they're a little off, and how that person acted on an "off" day could be a source for a roast. Alternatively, if you have any memories where the person did something truly goofy, that could be a great story for a roast.

• 
  
  
  • For instance, maybe a person jumped into the pool (fully clothed) at an office party to save a box of donuts. You could use that to tease the person a bit.

Stretch the truth, but don't ignore it. Often, the roast jokes that get the most laughs have an element of truth in them, but don't cross the line into being outright mean.

• 
  
  
  • For instance, you might turn a mention of the one pair of pants that Joe wears to work that are just a bit too short into a riff on his Steve Urkel-esque fashion sense. But don't just attack the person's sense of style without any context, or berate them for wearing clothes that make them look fat.

Get information from other people. If you're having trouble coming up with enough material on your own, feel free to ask other people if they have anything they'd like to add. You may find they contribute something you'd never have thought of, making the roast that much richer.

• 
  
  
  • You could also use stories that have gone around in your social group over the years. For instance, maybe the person is notorious for always burning dinner when guests come over, and so it's joked about in your group:
    • "Everyone knows Joe’s misadventures around the grill. So when he invites me over for a cookout, I skip a step and bring the fire department with me. OK, honestly I just make up an excuse and get take-out instead. There’s really no punchline here. Joe’s just a terrible, terrible cook.”

State the obvious. Don’t drive yourself crazy looking for obscure joke topics. Focus first on things that everyone who even barely knows the person being roasted will quickly recognize. Is the person really tall? Do they have a shockingly deep voice? Are they bald? As long as it’s something you know they can laugh about, aim several of your jokes at this kind of easy target.

• Is the person getting old?: “Larry doesn’t need to go to the theater to see ‘The Mummy’. He was there when they wrapped and buried it.”
• Is the person bad with technology?: “Larry is a decent nurse, but terrible with computers. He’s introduced more viruses into the office than the patients have.”
• Is the person a spendthrift?: “Larry’s so cheap, the shops in town all had to change the notes on the change dishes by their cash registers to read ‘take a penny, LEAVE A PENNY LARRY!

Walking the Line Between Funny and Nasty

Make sure the person is a good sport. You don't want to roast someone who will be seriously offended by what you have to say. Think back: have you ever poked fun at the person? If they reacted badly, they may not be a good candidate. You could even ask the person if they'd be comfortable with being roasted, as long as it's not supposed to be surprise.

• While people who can’t take a joke are often the ones you feel are most deserving of a roast, they’re also usually the worst ones to actually roast. Stick with people who can laugh at themselves.

Figure out where the line is. Whenever you roast someone, you'll find there's a line you don't want to cross. If you cross that line, you could seriously offend the person. The problem is, that line is in a different place for every person, so it can be hard to gauge.

• Use your own experience with the person to decide which categories are fair game, and which are off limits.
• For instance, bringing up the eating habits of someone you know has struggled with an eating disorder or body image issues is not a good idea. On the other hand, bringing up eating habits for another person may be perfectly fine, but they may have an issue if you talk about the way they dress.

Watch the person's body language. You should be able to tell if you're going too far by the person's body language. If they're laughing along with everyone else, you're probably doing okay. However, if the person looks uncomfortable, you may want to move on to another topic.

• For instance, the person may have a fake smile plastered on. They may even look upset.
• They may have their arms or legs crossed, leaning away from you, which is an unhappy position. They may also get restless and move around in their seat a lot.
• 

Avoid jokes about taboo topics. That is, you may want to use “better safe than sorry” in deciding to leave some topics off limits. Don't mention P***ies or drop the "F" word, killing babies (abortion) or hookers.

Don't be truly nasty. It's hard to know exactly when a joke crosses the line into being nasty or mean, but you'll usually get a feeling. If one of the jokes you're thinking about making has you feeling uncomfortable, it's likely best to just skip it. Roasting is supposed to be fun, not truly mean.

You are making the classic mistake of believing that because people are laughing at Trump he is funny.

 

This is what the press invited to their dinner when Obama was president. See him trashing Obama?

No, you do not.

 

Oh my...I kinda remember people putting down Hillary’s looks her cankles! Hi ho ho. I guess you’re forgetting how mean they were to Obama but Obama had class and was able to laugh at himself

 

He’s the joke!

 

They should have called Mike Obama a transsexual at one of these ... that would be funny

 

That's you comparison. .. lol.... Oh you guys ....

 

I wonder how you would feel if people referred to where you as a shithole because it’s a poor neighborhood. To educate you bigotry is not only about racism..there is classism, ageism, sexism etc,
Obama said you can keep your doctor and most people could but some couldn’t and he was wrong. When George Bush gave people the tax cuts and said it would help the economy..was he lying or was he wrong? There is a difference between being wrong and deliberately lying. Deliberately lying would be saying that someone had proof that Obama was born in Kenya. Deliberate lying would be saying that Muslims was celebrating in New Jersey on 911. Lying would be saying that he had the biggest inauguration ever. Those aren’t mistakes. And by the way why do you suppose people Are signing up for the affordable care act?
What is trump lying when he said that he was going to repeal and replace Obamacare with something better? Or was he just wrong

 

Guess you don’t watch Trevor Noah

 

Why would anybody trash a nice guy? Trump is pond scum and deserves every insult he gets and more.

 

I remember many embracing it.

 

This dinner further reinforced for people what they have come to expect from the main-stream media. They are not an objective body but filled with hatred, as are you, and have as an objective to bring down DT.

 

Not hard at all.To dude what she-devil did.
Given the opportunity and free rein of poetic license
ala a George Carlin or Richard Pryor,I could easily
cause that B!tches hair to stand on end.
I could with Satire alone,make her feel like a Truck stop
slut on her last legs.

 

So a comedian talked the same way about trump as trump talks of everyone else.
And trumpians are upset? I thought you people liked trash?

 

And these are usually the same ones who can’t understand how black people use the N-word and embrace it

 

I. Bet you don’t think you have a sexist bone, bitch, slut...any other names for a woman?

 

I wonder if you were aware that just about every single comedian uses Trump as the butt of the jokes. He is a comedian’s dream because his stupid twitters just feed them.

 

Donald Trump is his own worst enemy. People are laughing at him not with him.

 

Heroes such as yourself never emerge from the shadows.

 

Did Trump say things like what you are referring to on the National stage for all to hear?

 

Mexicans are drug dealers, murderers, and rapists? v Ivanka is as useful to women as an empty tampon box.

 

One has some truth to it and the latter has none.
