It’s based off an inside joke the staff had with the crew. Someone had told some stupid thing earlier about being interviewed by police and was trying to talk his way out of trouble by stating those lines.
Phil Fletcher (voice of Hacker T Dog, the puppet) thought this was hilarious and somehow ad-libbed it into follow-up to a video about ice dancers saying “We’re not ice dancers, we’re just normal men…we’re just innocent men” in an apparent deadpan impression from the story. Lauren Layfield (his co-host) immediately snorted and completely broke down causing Phil to ,of course, start having to stifle his own laughter under the camera, and becoming this meme.
Fletcher was notorious for being one of the best adlibbers on the show and constantly breaking up his co-hosts with this sort of goofiness.
