I’m not getting what you mean. I’m not a D&D player and know just basic stuff about rolls. Would a confirmation roll here mean an outside manipulation of what would have come to pass?
The joke is that a 20 is a ‘critical’. However, the rules as written (though I’ve never actually played in a group that uses this rule), you have to roll a second time to ‘confirm’ a crit.
The joke here, then, is that I was close to having ‘critical’ thinking, but I missed it, so now One Side Good, Other Side Bad.

I think I see now. Thanks for the explanation.
