"Cook’s jokes are almost exclusively based on funny sounding words. He’s obviously well researched in the linguistics of his trailing generation. He’s a 35-year-old who talks like he’s about to flunk the seventh grade for the fourth time. Kicking off Rough Around the Edges is a rousing tale of his father teasing the seven Cook children about a visit to “Benson’s Animal Farm” (a bit the commentary reveals was written some 15 years ago). One of the jokes for that story was that Cook used to say “skiddly-do” during jubilant childhood moments. “Skiddly-do” is a nothing piece of idiocy, the same thing as “bukka-bukka” or “woozle-wuzzle”, forgotten faster than the I Didn’t Do It boy. The fact that he uses words like “chief” and “gaylord” are also jokes. So all you need is a slang thesaurus or access to UrbanDictionary.com and you can write your own Cook routines ad nauseam."
