"her quick wits"... you would think she said something unbelievable -- but all she did is act confused so he gets embarrassed. It's not new for people to pretended not to get misogynistic, racist or homophobic jokes so the other party gets embarrassed when they have to explain.

Hell, i did that to my uncle once when I was 13 Got to watch him struggle to explain why a joke about murdering gay men was funny. He couldn't. I agree that feeling should be sold as a drug.
