I kinda hate it, but I also don't tend to like "prankster" type of humor in general. In spite of that, it's hard for me to think it's valid to be opposed to it generally if the people involved are all okay with it. So like, two friends "roasting" each other, okay, I guess none of my business if they are truly fine with it and enjoy it. But even then, are they doing stuff similar to "aftercare"? Where they reaffirm they really do love and appreciate each other after any digging is done. Because if not, it seems like an easy way for people to be in an unhealthy dynamic, where one of them is crying inside and just going along with it to get along.
And in the context of a sub like roastme, there's nothing close to "aftercare", no real off button on it, and it's complete strangers. So it seems like a horrible setup for doing it in a way that is at all healthy.
