Sharon Osbourne is gross.
Also not funny.
I am funny and have attracted men via same.
Yay Shrift!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This Hitchens piece is totally crazy
It's been years since he's produced one that wasn't.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The Buffy thread is filled with watch and post, so I haven't been in recently. Don't know if this TV Guide article on the Buffy S8 comic was linked to there. From there you can see a few pages of it, and the last one made me laugh.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Interesting. But that last panel contains a spoiler of sorts.

Whoo! Benefits good! One might even say they're beneficial!
I'll be able to go to the doctor if I need to! And not pay an exhorbitant amount for new eyeglasses! And I'll have to see if it's at all possible to take a floating holiday on December 26th. That would be nice.

Well, inasmuch as you can spoil yourself, I guess. It refers to (and clarifies) something we saw onscreen, but there's nothing left to spoil, is there?

Ann, that's a ferret.
It does put certain things in a very different light. I guess it depends on where (if anywhere) they go with that point.

I don't watch that much comedy, but when I do cruise by the shows on TV, my main impression of the women comedians was that on the average they were more grating than the men. I've seen dozens of clueless/sadly untalented/obnoxious male comedians, but the percentage of people I find funny tends to favor men. The common trend with the unentertaining women was their attempts to be "ballsy", which is what I assumed Hutchins meant by "dykey"--a badly named attempt to be more-macho-than-thou.
I can't stand Larry the Cable Guy. I love the other guys on Redneck Comedy Tour. Ellen DeGeneres will make me fall on the ground in tears. On the whole, I'd rather take a chance on watching a male comedian than a female comedian, and mostly for the reasons that Hutchins listed.

Boys try to crack each other up, in my experience, more than girls do.
Maybe this is why people find it odd that I try to be funny? (It's probably that my humor is too obscure for some people.)

Always Anti-fascist!
I've never really forgiven CH for showing up on TDS drunk off his ass.(If I can tell, bunk, you should be ashamed...it's another place where I'm darless so he probably gave half of Manhattan a contact high.) So his opinion means dick. ETA: And obviously, I'm fucking hilarious. maybe women only laugh at him when he's naked these days.
