What's a dry wit? "Well, I'm not going to say it to her face. I mean..."

YOU GUYS, you know that video where Cook, Archuleta and Syesha talk about their impressions of each other, and Cook says that Archie has a hilarious dry wit and Archie goes, "What's a dry wit?"?

I always thought that was impossibly, unutterably ridiculous, but then I noticed that THE EXTRA INFORMATION ABOUT THE VID says:

For those who don't know, dry wit is humor told in such a way that it's not always obvious. The weird thing about Archie is that his wit and humor aren't even obvious to him because it's unintentional. It's not laugh-out-loud-HAHA humor but rather something that requires a bit of thought to get. Try searching for videos of comedian Steven Wright.
