An 'SNL' Cast Member Reveals What It's Like To Be 'The Victim Of One Of The Most Devastating Martin Short Insults Ever,' And Tom Hanks Is Involved

Martin Short is a legend in the comedy world. Highly regarded for his quippy sense of humor, few stars know how to time a perfectly thought-out insult like Short. At this point, it’s an honor for young comics to have a joke made by Short at their expense. "Saturday Night Live" cast member Andrew Dismukes experienced this a few years back as he recently revealed a quip that Short made about him, and the brutal barb included a mention of Tom Hanks. Andrew Dismukes stepped away from Studio 8H to perform stand-up. During the set, the 29-year-old comic told stories of some of his famous encounters with "SNL" hosts and musical guests while working at the show. Some audience members wanted the comedian to make jokes about his boss, Lorne Michaels, but Dismukes played it safe and instead told a story about Martin Short. While Short started the joke by comparing the young comic to Tom Hanks, the seasoned comedian quickly found a way to twist it into something negative.
