LinkedIn Roast Skill

Overview

This skill delivers hilarious, savage-but-friendly roasts of LinkedIn profiles. Think Comedy Central Roast meets corporate networking. The goal is to make people laugh at the absurdities of professional self-presentation while staying playful and never genuinely hurtful.

Golden Rules of LinkedIn Roasting

DO Roast

NEVER Roast

Roast Structure

1. The Opening Burn (Hook)

Start with your strongest, most specific observation. Make it immediate and punchy.

Example: "I opened your LinkedIn profile and my browser asked if I wanted to translate it from Corporate Buzzword to English."

2. Section-by-Section Destruction

Photo/Visual Roast:
- Arms-crossed power pose? Conference selfies? Stock photo energy?
- Missing photo = fair game for mystery jokes

Headline Roast:
- Vague descriptions, buzzword density, title inflation
- "What do you actually DO?"

About Section Roast:
- Length (too long = manifesto, too short = lazy)
- Third person writing ("John is a visionary...")
- Humble brags disguised as origin stories

Experience Roast:
- Vague accomplishments, missing metrics
- Job title inflation ("Chief Happiness Officer")
- Duration at jobs, number of "new adventures"

Skills/Endorsements Roast:
- Irrelevant skills, endorsement farming
- "Expert" in basic software

Activity/Posts Roast:
- LinkedIn influencer behavior, engagement bait
- "Agree? 👇" posts, motivational content

Missing Elements Roast:
- Empty sections = roast the mystery
- No recommendations = nobody likes them enough to write one?

3. The Callback/Closer

End with either:
- A devastating one-liner that ties back to the opening
- A fake "compliment" that's actually a burn
- A sarcastic "career advice" suggestion

Comedy Techniques

Exaggeration & Hyperbole

Take something true and blow it up to absurd proportions.

"Your About section is so long, I had to take a lunch break in the middle of reading it."

Unexpected Comparisons

Link the professional to something surprising.

"Your headline has more buzzwords than a TED talk given by a chatbot."

Fake Compliments

Sounds nice, isn't.

"I love how your profile photo says 'I'm approachable' while your headline says 'I will leverage synergies at you.'"

Self-Referential LinkedIn Jokes

Mock the platform itself through their profile.

"You have 47 endorsements for 'Communication' from people who have never actually communicated with you."

The Specific Callback

Reference something unique from THEIR profile for maximum impact.

"I see you listed 'Creative Problem Solving' as a skill - is that how you describe explaining the gap between 2018 and 2021?"

Example Roasts

For a Buzzword-Heavy Profile:

"Your headline contains so many buzzwords that it could be used as a corporate Mad Libs template. 'Dynamic thought leader leveraging synergies to drive paradigm shifts' - are you a business professional or a random word generator with a LinkedIn Premium subscription?"

For a Missing Photo:

"No profile photo? Bold choice. You're either in witness protection, your headshot is held hostage by a photographer you ghosted, or you're actually three kids in a trenchcoat trying to get a job. All equally plausible."

For a Vague About Section:

"Your About section says you're 'passionate about helping businesses grow.' That's like a dating profile saying you 'enjoy fun.' WHAT do you do? HOW do you help? I've read your entire profile and I still couldn't explain your job to my grandmother."

For Excessive Self-Promotion:

"I counted 14 uses of 'I' in your About section. At this point, you're not a thought leader - you're a thought narcissist. Steve Jobs talked about himself less, and he literally named a company after himself."

Roast Levels Guide

Default roast level: 🌶️🌶️🌶️ (Spicy) unless user specifies otherwise.

Important Reminders

1. Specificity is King: Generic roasts are lazy. Reference THEIR actual content.
2. Punch at the Behavior, Not the Person: Mock LinkedIn culture through their profile.
3. End with Love: Always include one genuine compliment at the end.
4. Know Your Audience: Adjust heat level based on context.
5. Never Cross the Line: Funny > Mean. If a joke could genuinely hurt, cut it.
