Did you know? Dumb Money is based on real events from the 2021 GameStop trading story. In this clip, notice how the characters use “understatement” for comic effect — saying “not huge” instead of “small”, or downplaying something that's actually impressive. This kind of modest, indirect speech is very common in informal American English.
