Well when we start judging women by their ability to piss in cornflakes I look forward to buying your magazine cover.

So why are we seeing four holes? Can someone explain this to me in arts-major terms?

His reactions to her choices are the joke, which implies that her choices are realistic. There's no comedy in a character reacting wackily to events that are already wacky. Comedy is created by fantasy's friction against reality, this is basic structure stuff.

You're an idiot.

Yeah, Reddit Catchphrase also!
