20 Funny Roasts for Someone on Tinder
1. Is it a faulty GPS?
This joke plays on the idea that someone might use Tinder to find their perfect match with pinpoint accuracy.
This lighthearted roast suggests that the person, lady or man, is a GPS device. It is like what happens with GPS where you can’t help the accuracy of direction.
In this case though, this person is not who you want. Something has to be wrong with the map. Note the twist in the tone of the roast. If the GPS isn’t faulty, one would say this meeting was meant to be.
- Do I have a faulty GPS or is it you? Because every time I see you on Tinder, my heart says ‘recalculating.’
- Is it a faulty GPS? Because I just can’t seem to navigate away from your Tinder profile.
2. The Time machine should have malfunctioned…
This joke humorously suggests that if the time machine hadn’t malfunctioned, you and the person on Tinder would not have met.
The roast here is found in the twist. One would hope time travel brought fortune in the form of love, but in this case, you wish the machine hadn’t been faulty.
- I hope it hurts when you fall from heaven. Or was it just the time machine malfunctioning on Tinder?
- I must be a time traveler, because I keep swiping right into the future where you and I are an imperfect match.
3. Is it just me or are you overdoing the emoji thing?
Roast a Tinder folk who dumps emojis on you with this funny joke. If the person is saying little but pouring emojis into the conversation, this roast can help straighten them out.
Be careful though, this may end the friendship before it even started. But if you’re so tired of the emojis and just want to be rid of the person, knock yourself out.
- Are you a magician? Because whenever I see your Tinder profile, everything else disappears… under a pile of heart emojis.
- I was blinded by your beauty on Tinder, but mostly by the excessive use of sparkle emojis.
4. What’s with the confusing bio?
This one jokes about the common yet awkward bios people sometimes put on their Tinder profiles. The initial attraction is in what people put in their bios.
In this roast the bio is probably impossible, or laced with confusing terms. It’s a century when people can be whatever they want. Maybe trying to understand this person’s bio is work.
- Is your name Google? Because you’ve got everything I’ve been searching for on Tinder, including a confusing bio.
- Are you a Wi-Fi signal? Because I’m not sure what you’re trying to connect on your Tinder bio.
5. Super Liked?
This roast makes light of the “Super Like” feature on Tinder. People use the super like feature on Tinder when they have a more than normal interest in the person.
In this case the person has super liked your profile and now you’re questioning their sanity for doing so. The play is on the word super.
- Are you a superhero? Because super liking my profile comes with its villain problems.
- You super liked my profile. Which one are: a superhero or supervillain?
6. You make my swipe game go up.

Or they may look better than their profile picture suggests.
