HBO is having a little fun today roasting everyone’s favorite little incestuous smear, King Joffrey. Here’s their promo featuring the impossible-to-top Tyrion.

Social media being what it is, everyone is free to join in. Including, uh, famous blood-thirsty directors…

You know what they say about King Joffrey: "A Lannister always wets his bed." #RoastJoffrey @GameOfThrones

@GameOfThrones Calm down Joffery: this is all incest. I mean, in jest. **awkward pause** Your uncle is your father. /drops mic #RoastJoffrey

Even if you look down your nose at Twitter, you have to admit that this is exactly the kind of fun it was built for. Well that and for breaking world news. Whatever. HBO will be popping out some fun little visuals all day.

So even if you don’t usually hop on Twitter, it might be worth it to follow the #RoastJoffrey hashtag today and drop them a line. Remember, sometimes the simplest burns are the best.

Hey Joffrey, one word: Dracarys. #RoastJoffrey @GameofThrones
