Audience laughter in this scene0:17
Kyogitsune · Cigarettes

The pair argue about drinking toilet water, and one says it could make you die much sooner.

The words appear when the audience laughs.

Seriously, why?!

Textbook本当に、どうしてですか。'なんでやねん' is Kansai for 'どうしてなのですか': 'なんで' (why) + 'や' (Kansai 'だ') + 'ねん' (emphatic 'のだ'). A classic retort.

Kyogitsune · What I Do on My Days Off

One performer melodramatically laments that Tokyo is a cold city, as if writing a letter home to Mom.

Culture note 拝啓 (haikei) is the formal opening of a Japanese letter. Writing home to Mom about struggling in Tokyo is a classic image of a young person who moved from the countryside to the big city.

The words appear when the audience laughs.

This is what my days off are like, though.

Textbook私の休みの日はこのような感じなのですが。Polite 「私の」 becomes casual male 「俺の」. 「こんなん」 is casual for 「こんなもの」, and the topic particle 「は」 is dropped.
