can we live in my fun world where all the Offermen have to rhyme anyway?
APARNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA <3 all the emoji hearts and stars for her! Also, loving Gina Yashere. Ali Wong’s Baby Cobra on Netflix is GOLDEN.
wait,,, Nick’s dad is Ric? Like how Ron’s brothers were Don and John, and his son was John? Do the Offerman men (Offermen?) all have to rhyme names?!
I do live for commuting to podcasts that feature UCB-types, and have realized I know more and more of the people on @Midnight because of it. Thanks! I’ve been told some really gross things here - and TBH, she’s not perfect, but I like her overall. My husband does too - he arranged all of this because he literally and…
Well, she treated me well as an audience member and a fan. But, I’m sorry to hear that? I mean... different people like different people? I’m not her. I can’t speak to what you’re experience is... I’m not going to try to argue with it... because I wouldn’t think you’d lie (I know I’m not). But this person writing had…
Yeah...I have zero clue what thats from, I’ve seen most of her work. The WWII joke is from her special “Confirmed Kills” - I linked to a script of it earlier.... but basically its that we (white ladies) sometimes stupidly call our grandpa’s (who were WWII/Korea vets and part of the Greatest Generation) stupid nick…
I think because she publicly posts herself as being within the culture she’s mocking I’m ok with it. I never took her as finding herself above it - but if you hear it that way it would definitely be grating.
hahahaha OMG THAT IS AMAZING. I really like your brain.
So... I always took it to mean, not that TORTURE WORKS but that its SUPER INSANE that we infantilize our grandparents. People from “The Greatest Generation” who fought in WWII/Korea... by calling them weird things... like me... I called my grandpa “pops” which led to me calling him “popsicle” for like... the last 6…
Hahha fair call on Jeffries. I guess I feel like the people I listed don’t talk about sex for talking about sex’s sake, or its not the main focus of their body of work.
She definitely mocks the modern white girl - but she calls it out as a privilege white girl.
I acutally, knowing the WWII joke in question, her general stand up routines don’t think she’s so wrong. I also can’t stand the people who are like I’m so funny because I talk about sex! It’s SHOCKING! It’s actually not... I prefer someone who makes an interesting comment on our society.
lol. nah... I wish. I’m stuck at a desk job, on the wrong coast.
because nobody seems to have bothered to look at what her damn WWII joke WAS....
Nope. She makes fun of herself for her weird desires (like to be a witch, with a hump back, and a claw), she makes fun of drinking culture, she makes fun of how girls are “too cool” for coats in the 20s, and her WWII joke is how we infantalize our grandparents... when Pip-pop or whatever lame white girl nick name we…
Except she’s best friends with Kate The Wasp, another female comic who doesn’t do vulgar Amy Schumer type stuff. Except she’s a staunch supporter of a lot of important feminist causes. Except she is one to generally laugh at herself. Except her point about being smart with your comedy and not “like one of the boys” is…
I didn’t do well on Lexapro (it caused me to bleed from the booty); but I was ok on Paxil (also SSRI) for ~4 years; until it began to cause massive gastric distress. I gained over 20 lbs in under 6 months and nobody could find a cause. When they took me off, I lost the weight (well, most of it) relatively fast (I had…
It’s now (semi-recently) a sanctuary city! It’s the hub of the #Resistance and #BLM locally too! I <3 SOMA
No problem! All 4 are presumably married at this point - Joy Anna, the youngest of the 4 is not confirmed married, but the show ended on her courting, and them showing her intended preparing to propose. So... given that the sisters had like 3-6 month engagements, and they were showing clips from last fall... it’s 3-6…
