Ted Segura is a comedian who lives in Texas, and not so long ago he says he found out that one of his neighbors is none other than Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).
Granted, that’s bad enough, but Segura recently revealed that what makes living so close to Cruz even worse is that he’s obsessed with one curse word and constantly asks him about it.
According to HuffPost, Segura spilled the dirt on Cruz in his latest special, “Sledgehammer,” which you can watch on Netflix.
“I walk past his house, he comes outside. I don’t say anything, right? But he yells out — he goes, ‘Hey, are you the comedian,’” Segura said.
After Segura confirmed his identity, the senator asked him a bizarre question without even saying “hello,” the comedian said.
“He goes, ‘Where do you think the term motherfucker comes from?’” Segura recounted.
Segura said he replied that he didn’t know, leading the senator to ask, “You think it’s from people doing that?” and ”How many people do you think do that?” ― to which Segura replied, “More than you want it to be.”
Pretty weird, huh? But Cruz refused to let it drop from there, again chatting Segura up on the word.
“He goes, ‘I thought about it. And a motherfucker is not somebody who fucks their own mom,’” Segura said. “He goes, ‘A motherfucker is someone who fucks your mom. That’s the most disrespectful thing anyone can do. So if somebody is particularly rude, you call them a motherfucker.’”
Segura said he told the senator, “Wow! I am so impressed that you put that together so quickly. I can see why you may or may not be Ted Cruz.”
Wow! That’s one hell of a story.
However, it should be noted that Segura lives in Austin. Cruz owns a home in Houston.
Also, reached for comment, Cruz denied he had ever met Segura:
“It’s utterly bizarre. I have no idea who that guy is….I’ve never spoken to the man in my life.”
Of course, we all know that Ted Cruz lies like a motherfucker, so his denial carries little to no weight.
