UD laughed madly throughout this brilliantly written casting call.

Here are the exact phrases that prompted her to laugh; the laughpoints, call them:

his ‘80s teen movie villain sons

smarmy rich assholes

the consummate douchebag

a loudmouth, handsy asshole

dickhead golfer Shooter McGavin

bloated loudmouth dick’s shenanigans

a serious De Niro-in-Raging Bull food binge

bloated, women-terrorizing ass

the accused serial sexual harasser/lardass

*********************

Hm. A close reading reveals four uses of the word ass, and two of the word dick… Make of this what you will… But UD will say that the combination in strict proximity of a high class word and a low class can be very funny. Example here: consummate douchebag.

Also – a pile-up of adjectives is often funny (bloated loudmouth dick’s, bloated [hey, there’s another repetition] woman-terrorizing ass).
