Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker jokes that if they met themselves wearing such clothes, they would be tempted to beat themselves up. It is self-deprecating exaggeration: disgust at an outfit turns into a threat against their own double, with the humour coming from the absurd violence directed inward.
