Roasting someone is an art form. Gently flame them, and the victim will only come away singed. Give them third degree burns, and you risk burning a relationship to the ground. Yes folks, it’s a fine line between a sense of humor and a sense of humor failure.

We’ve been conditioned to believe that " practical " has to mean “devoid of all personality....
