    making fun of the horrible take

    I have to admit I didn't watch the skit, I just read the tweet. Thanks for providing some context. I still think it's an inappropriate joke

      All his jokes are inappropriate, so yes. He appeals to both the people who play along with the idea that it's a bad take (so that British libs that think of themselves as modern and progressive can laugh) and those who don't, which is where it becomes shitty. It should always be unambiguously making fun of the bad take.

      Kinda like Chapelle only there's more "plausible" deniability.
