About this sound
Matt Berry saying take that personally as Laszlo in What We Do in the Shadows, a dry insult line used for reaction clips and petty comeback edits.
This is Matt Berry delivering the line take that personally in his rich, theatrical voice as Laszlo Cravensworth from What We Do in the Shadows. The delivery is deliberately posh, drawn out and smugly superior, turning a simple instruction into a cutting put-down. Berry leans into the vowels and pauses just enough to make the insult feel both elegant and ridiculous. Listeners hear instant confidence and mock offence, which is why the clip lands as a perfect deadpan reaction to criticism, embarrassment or any moment someone is meant to feel personally stung.
