The line is associated with Matt Berry's portrayal of Laszlo Cravensworth in What We Do in the Shadows, the television comedy about vampires sharing a house on Staten Island, where Berry's flamboyant, old-fashioned delivery turned many of his remarks into fan favourites. Lifted as a short standalone clip, it circulates on soundboards and in short videos as a quick way to call out someone who has not been listening. Its appeal endures because the performance is so distinctive that even listeners who have not seen the show recognise the tone of exasperated disbelief.

Matt Berry as Laszlo in What We Do in the Shadows asks if someone is deaf, a sharp clip for reacting when a message is completely ignored online.
Matt Berry's voice does most of the work in this clip, delivered in the grand, theatrical style he uses as Laszlo Cravensworth, with a slow, incredulous emphasis that makes the question land like an insult rather than a genuine enquiry. The line is short, punchy and unmistakably British, cutting through a scene with aristocratic disdain and comic impatience. Played over a reaction shot or a failed explanation, it instantly frames the other person as wilfully oblivious, turning frustration into a joke and giving the audience a satisfying, quotable moment of exasperation.
