I saw this in another thread and thought it would be fun to discuss this and perhaps make it happen.
I love the Roasts they do on Comedy Central of celebrities. I think it would be cool to nominate someone to be roasted at the brunch and then anyone that wants to try their hand at it could step up and make a few jokes.
The roastee must agree to it and be a good sport about. You KNOW you're gonna get hammered. There are some pretty damn clever folks on here that will surely come up with some gold! So, the roastee must be willing to take it.
What do y'all think?
Discuss....

This is a really really awesome idea in theory. But do we have any comedians here? I think juggs would be the only really good roaster on these boards. Jess would be probably be the best candidate but I think I'd just feel sorry for him the whole time and it wouldn't be funny anymore. You guys can be harsh.
Juggs would be a good candidate but it would be hard to nail him. The only reason I would want to see juggs as the roastee is for his redemption speech at the end.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

I'm so down for this! I think it should be Bunny. (We roast the ones we love right?)
We'll bring the BlockRocker (speaker/microphone) thing we had last year (as long as Mike says it's ok )
One a side note, my friends were preparing a roast of me a couple of years ago for my birthday party. I was down with it until they were "practicing" every time we hung out. That shit got old quick.

We recently did this for our boss who left after 7 years. All of the managers did the roasting (none of who are comedians) and we laughed so hard all evening. When they were done, he roasted each one of us with a funny or embarrassing story about us. Mine (in short) was that they only hired me because of my accent, so that when I answered the phone, people wouldn't think they had reached a company run by TN rednecks
It was so much fun even with work people, I can't imagine how silly it could get with all of us Inforooers ;D
Oh and I vote for Bunny or Druid - either one would be great fun to roast.

Could be fun.
Also keep in mind at those roasts the people talking don't just make fun of the person being roasted but the other people there. So everyone can get their fair share.

I agree with Sarah, if we are going to do a first annual inforoo brunch roast, it HAS to Bunny. I mean, she is Queen of the Brunch and it would be appropriate. I also think Bunny would be one of the best sports out there in getting roasted.
