You're right, I was. During that four minutes, I thought he was being a bit rude and playing an unnecessary role. Better?
Honestly though, if people were enjoying them, I don't think it's any less rude. It says more to me about the anti-intellectualism mentioned earlier. Reminds me of the Diesel campaign surrounding the word "Stupid".
I don't know, I think you can nail this kind of repartee and it's funny and makes things flow - which stops the day from getting boring and stiff. But I hate it when it's not quite right. Kinda like the MC at a gig who tries to make bad jokes and ends up being super awkward.
