Today I watched “The Best Insult I’ve Ever Heard.” It’s a bit from a stand up show that Matt Braunger performed. The video is almost 6 minutes long.

It starts out with Matt talking about how he likes to watch men hit on women in ridiculous ways. For example, talking through an entire group of people to ask this girl out. He gives another example where he described a woman saying that she had done her laundry and dressed in a way that screamed don’t hit on me, which is funny because I dress like that all the time and no one ever hits on me so… Anyway this man asks to get drinks with her and she turned him down to which the man replied “That’s not the point.” Then he used a couple of ways it would be funny to use that expression in other areas.

In the next bit he describes how he won a bingo game while he was “really” high. That day, he was wearing a shirt that said “Peaches.” When he won he said “FUCK YEAH I WIN. BINGO!” He then said as he was walking up to get the prize and a lady screamed “FUCK YOU PEACHES!” He calls it the best insult because you can’t say anything back. I would dissagree. You could say “Right back atcha beeches.”

I think the second half was funnier because it sounded more relatable. I’ve been to bingo houses before and have seen some things like that. I also think it’s funny that he calls himself an ass and an idiot because, again, relatable. My friend Angie and I watched this together and she thought it was funny as well. I think anyone would find this funny because almost everyone can relate because we’ve all seen the men who try to be slick but aren’t
