Two immutable facts of being a comic with lady parts… you can always work Valentine’s Day and, if someone makes a sweeping statement about women comics, you will receive at least three emails telling you the weird mean thing to “find out what you think.”

So, next time, just remember that I’ll be thinking what I always think: , It’s weird, sweeping, and mean. I might also think that the person who made the weird comment is someone who isn’t necessarily all that “transcendent” of a (insert their job) either.

Unless you’re my manager… Then you can tell me the weird mean thing that was said, specifically, about me. Because I might work on that. That’s all. #boredinanairport #partofmyplantohelpsowsocialskills

Buy this book somehow: “unless you stand to inherit a lot of money by spending one night in a haunted house with a group of strangers, there’s not much to be gained by living in terror” @Merrillmarkoe http://www.amazon.com/Cool-Calm-Contentious-Merrill-Markoe/dp/0345518918

Not even funniest line. So far, best summation of truth in a line. ( who knew that was a category, academy). And, that line is about sex!

This is not a cry for help unless you have a kickass ear doctor. Then. It’s a cry for help.

Because the title of that shitty after school special is how fucking hard it is for me to hear on stage with my recurring ear infection. Going on a year here. My Ear doctor just says, “yeah, the infection subsides but you still hear like you’re under water?” Uh, yeah. Him, “well,it looks okay, let’s give you another hearing test.” grrr, and I’m done with you.

Acupuncturist says, “behind your face is one piece of meat. So he infection goes from your ears to your sinus and back.” fantastic, you got anything? “herbs to make you stronger.” great, anybody got anything that could nuke this?

And, yes, I would like some cheese with my whine.

The Comedy Bureau (I found all of this interesting!)

thecomedybureau:

1) John Mulaney was on Fallon last night. Simply put, just watch and enjoy.

2) Also last night, Josh Adam Meyers took the stage at the Downtown Comedy Club and The Comedy Store for the first time since the tragic accident involving both him and Angelo Bowers. Donations for his…

Makin’ Friends: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/12/arts/television/eddie-brill-and-the-comics-on-david-lettermans-show.html?_r=2  “There are a lot less female comics who are authentic,”Mr. Brill said.“I see a lot of female comics who to please an audience will act like men.” How awesome would it be if he acted like one from 2012, not 1912).

He collects (over 300 so far) statues/action figures of The Thing and she MAKES tiny plates of food! https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.141688585877173.25312.141660832546615&type=3

Not fixed by Patrick, so raw audio - here’s a clip of the Kevin Eastman show for Friday (people are doing this now… some sort of “teaser”  - but, I guess it’s easier to pass around). This is the first ep i’m editing after someone told me to do this.

Mary Jo Pehl episode out tonight, in the night, like Marines in Iran.

xo, jk
