What does つっこむ べき mean?


I know that べき means should, so what's つっこむ? And what's its infinitive?




つっこむ is a simple verb which has several meanings including "to plunge", "to
retort", "to cram". So つっこむべき means "[You] should cram", "[I] should plunge",
or whatever that corresponds to the dictionary definition.

That said, when people suddenly say つっこむべき in a conversation, it's likely to
mean "[I/You/etc should] retort / react / butt in / point out someone's error"
usually with some comedic nuance. つっこむ is recognized as a role of comedians.
