That whole performance is funny. Later on she starts up again and he tells her boyfriend "Sir, will you stick your **** in her mouth and shut her up?". He goes off on a huge rant later when someone shouts "Freebird". I find it to be very entertaining because he bombs so much but doesn't care, he knows it's funny and I know it's funny. The audience were just expecting all **** jokes.
So expletive-filled rants with no meaning, wit or cleverness to them is something to aspire to? I think a middle schooler is capable of that. I find bombing to be just that, bombing.
