An Open Letter To My Friends Who Have Once Said They Think Amy Schumer Is Funny

-
I'm on  a roll you guys. It's been one day since my last post. 

Hey friends,
The ones that love comedy, the ones that laugh at funny, inappropriate things. The ones that watch the roasts on Comedy Central and tell me "Dude, Amy Schumer, is so funny." Really? Is she funny? Then why the fuck aren't you watching Inside Amy Schumer? 

With each of friends, I know their level of humor, what they can or cannot handle. Well most of the time. I admit there are times I say something to a person and immediately think "too far." The majority of the time though I have an amazing gauge on it. 

Amy Schumer somehow does and says the inappropriate in such an appropriate way that I want to become her best friend, and I want her to give me a job. Amy, if you are reading this, I'd be the perfect candidate to be hired at minimum wage (minimum wage is 20.00/hr now, right?) just to give you your morning cookie at the appropriate temperature.

The best part of having someone like a show you like is the discussion after and the way you can throw parts of the show into your everyday conversations.

Another best part is, if you like her standup and spots on the roasts, her standup is incorporated in the show, and an added bonus, some of her standup is put into sketches.

A few of many quotes I would put into use with friends if they fucking watched the show:
"Your tits make Katy Perry's look like the Holocaust."
"Whoa...stay away from my window, Melissa Etheridge."
"I asked for some chardonnay...and in a 9/11 twist...they didn't have any."
"I don't want kids or marriage yet. The only ring I'm interested in is the Nuva Ring

Amy's show has a way of talking about and showing things that actually happen to us in real life but in the funniest way. Not in a "Omg Amy, you're disgusting" way, but an "Omg Amy, yes. Exactly" way.

Check a clip, son...or mija...



If you've never seen her standup, here are some sweet tidbits:
"It's a weird age. They're like, 'Amy, I'm pregnant.' And I still don't know whether to be like, 'Congratulations,' or 'Do you ned a ride?'"
"I know what I look like, like you'd bang me, but you wouldn't blog about it."
"I blackout whenever I drink anything other than beer and wine. No, it is the worst. Your mind is asleep, but your body is like, 'tonight is my night.' You're in a coma with glowsticks."
"I hooked with French guy. I didn't even know he was French. I was like wasted because I like fun."

Tonight is the second to last episode of season one. Watch the last two, catch the ones you missed on Hulu or comedycentral.com, if they are there, then just make sure to set your DVR for season two.

I've Got a Theory

I have a relationship with the clerk in the store where I buy my beef jerky and copenhagen—I mean where I buy my quinoa and acai. I’m in there about twice a week  and have been going to this store for  basically the entire time I’ve lived in LA.  We aren’t wordsmiths towards each other, but we have facial recognition and the “Hey! How are you? Good to see you.” down pat.  Yesterday something happened. He rung me up (I got a cherry blow pop that he didn’t charge me for) I swiped my card because plastic makes it easier to believe that you aren’t spending anything. I grabbed my bag of Colt 45 and two zig zags* (I mean because baby…that's all I need)—I mean, organic bananas and almonds, I turned about 35 degrees, got one foot up ready to take a step when he mumbled to me. He either said, “How about that plane?” “Crazy about the plane.” “What do you think about that plane?” Till this day I don't and do not believe I’ll ever know what he initally said. I just kind of

Her, Him & Them: Based on a Fictional True Story

Based on a true, but fictional story He was everything to her. She knew every possible thing she could know about him.  He was a photographer, an amazing one at that. He would say that  SportsCenter  was his favorite show, when in actuality it was  Parenthood.  If he could only eat one type of food for the rest of his life, he chose the Dragon Roll from Sushi on Main. He had a super fat tabby cat named Tabby. He’s deathly allergic to bees.  He’s the oldest of three children. He has two sisters that mean the absolute world to him. Their father died when he was 10 and he had to become the man of the house. When he’s ready to have children he wants four, two of each. These are the things she excitedly told her three girlfriends at brunch the first time she mentioned him. She couldn’t believe a month had passed since she told them about him. She wasn’t going to, at least not then but she just kind of blurted it out after they kept badgering her about who her plus one would be to the w

You're Judging Me? I'm Judging You?

I was getting coffee with a co-worker today and I ordered a caramel latte.  The barista asked me a question after I ordered. I didn't hear what he said, so he repeated it. I still couldn't hear, so he repeated it a third time. I responded again with "what?" He repeated it again. I turned to my co-worker for assistance and he said "What is your name?" the proceeded to answer for the barista.  After we left I told him that I really couldn't understand the barista, he said well he was soft spoken, maybe he was intimidated by you.  I was taken aback. "What?! I'm not intimidating." "Yeah, you are just the look you always have on your face. It says 'don't talk to me.'" I cursed out loud and replied with "Dammit, that's supposed to be my airport look." Don't bother me at airports people, don't want to be there, don't want to know you. Unbeknownst to me, my airport look turned into my everyday when
