      makes sense if you know the context. this is from the sketch comedy series The Mitchell and Webb Look, which was aired on BBC Two at the time, and later with higher quality on BBC HD… anyway the man pictured is David Mitchell and his mouth is the organ he most often uses to talk.

        While Webb, by contrast, presumably talks more often out of his ass? Or was there some other organ which you were implying was from whence the subtitles should be flowing?

          nah I just tried a bait and switch. thought it would be funny to start the comment with info about the show like it was going to be something about the show or something, then end it with the most obvious “yeah so the subtitles come out of his mouth because that’s where he speaks from” which makes the entire first half also irrelevant and stupid.

          i say “i thought it would be funny” like it didn’t turn out to be so but i still think it’s hilarious; kinda proud of the comment to be honest.
