Shane Gillis is a f*cking GENIUS..

Overview

The video reacts to the backlash over Shane Gillis’s SNL monologue about men commenting on women’s gym clothes. Asmongold jokes that Gillis may have deliberately provoked outrage to promote his show, then watches a gym sketch that takes the argument to absurd extremes: a man tells another to cover up his girlfriend, invokes a burka, and refuses to leave when confronted.

A follow-up bit flips the complaint around, with someone telling men to cover up—only to insult a man’s clothes instead. Asmongold calls the exchange a “mission failed successfully.”

The reaction then turns to critics who say Gillis’s jokes were cheap or poorly written. One woman says she studied comedy writing and would have been laughed out of a writers’ room for that monologue; Asmongold counters that Gillis’s success is precisely why it got on the show. He also mocks an SNL cast member’s noncommittal response when asked whether she found the joke funny.

The video closes by comparing the outrage over the monologue with online clips about revealing gym wear, including a demonstration of how to give yourself a wedgie to show off your glutes.
