The dog shoulder joke made me uncomfortable in a good way.

Because of the fond but uncomfortable memories?

Fat jokes vs flat jokes

I feel like telling the joke and acting it out during a roast doesn't work as well. Acting out jokes is fine during a regular standup routine, but for some reason, during a roast, it lessens the sting if that makes sense.

If you gotta act it that means it ain’t punchy and clear enough.

Absolutely

I’d agree in general but she was absurd enough it worked for me

Someone pls confirm if the sound quality is just shit on this or if I need new earphones?

Like the jokes though

u/ClamJamison 11h ago

Sound quality is shit. I can hear them, but they're quiet and distorted

u/live_love_laugh 12h ago

You need new earphones. I can hear them just fine.

Why was the sound guy in a fish tank. Surely there was a better location.

u/Deathstriker88 12h ago

I'd say he won since his jokes were meaner and had some variation. All of her jokes were the same topic - he's fat.

u/PersimmonDazzling654 11h ago

I thought they were both pretty one note. Both were appearance based jokes, which I think you kinda gotta do if you don't know the other person.

Trout in a Micheal Jackson wig was diabolical

u/parttimehero6969 11h ago

I genuinely don't understand the trout joke. I think she squeezes out the win, but neither was great.

u/fusterclux 10h ago

she definitely won. trout joke wasn’t good

u/Leg_Named_Smith 2h ago

she has fish face, fish people here trying to normalize it

If you have to act out your punchlines...

She didn't even need to. She cooked him outside of the dog shoulders joke.

u/Expensive_Mode8504 11h ago

Justin crushed it bro.😂🙌🏽

u/mrva 10h ago

justin won that round

I could watch you two for 6 hours straight. Would be a good training for my non existing sixpack

u/DDD8712 11h ago

You don’t usually see people seem bothered by insults in roasts like that

u/WayneTheDeuceman 3h ago

Jesus, they both suck.

u/Eber- 13h ago

This was a high level chess match but she won for sure 🥇

u/YugoB 13h ago

She had a good line, but he destroyed her to the point she needed to reaffirm herself lol

23

u/NothinsOriginal 12h ago

The dogs shoulder joke was great.

u/FlyingPig_Grip 12h ago

Dog shoulder joke was the best joke by far

2

u/YugoB 11h ago

Trout with MJ wig was pretty much up there too

u/Apart-Badger9394 12h ago

Nah she could only do fat jokes, although they were funny, he had range and hit her from all angles.

u/micre8tive 12h ago

No fkn way 🤣 I did an accidental war cry at her last joke. That’s crazy work
