Gonna guess his was a half-joke, half-serious comment. Now, if the comedic profession truly is rife with reprobates, then that would indeed be something. We can speculate how likely that is, but I'm not interested.

Translation: I'd prefer not to engage your argument, so I'll question the seriousness of the first speaker. And then say that I don't care to discuss the seriousness of the speaker.
