This.

We're so used to seeing Matt as a prick that we have a negative perception whenever he opens his mouth (or keyboard). I thought it was a humble tweet. It really must've been tough for him at the height of Jon's US popularity. On the other hand, that's the reason why at this age he has a job and, I imagine, a comfortable life.
