Timing is everything in comedy. In this clip, the audience member has it and the comedian doesn’t. She rips him instantly, while he takes forever to fire back at her, all the while undergoing a series of embarrassing neck and wrist twitches. She wins, he loses. And no, we’re not buying that his intent was to let the crowd’s roar die down.
One question for the video poster, though: Is it really necessary to put subtitles on the banter of white people?

Umm…maybe my sense of humor is a bit different than the person writing this but the comedian got the last zinger – “glad you remember” – comeback is bleepin golden. To say that the heckler was the winner, is like calling boxing match after someone got the first jab in… Just sayin!

Agreed, I’ve seen the video before. He fires back with “glad you remember” after the crowd’s laughter subsides. Terrible article.
