oh man, it's mogadishu all over again

James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 4 April 2003 00:49 (twenty-one years ago) link

Possible reason to find Tina Fey funny: SNL becoming truly watchable again coincided almost exactly with her becoming head writer. (Yeah, it's true, I'm being rockist about writing vs. performance, what are you gonna do about it?)

nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 4 April 2003 00:49 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'll admit I do think she's funny in a 'for SNL nowadays' way


how much was her becoming head writer (and the concurrent three very prominent female cast members) fallout from the garofalo imbroglio o' 94-95?

James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 4 April 2003 00:51 (twenty-one years ago) link

yeah she wrote COLONEL ANGUS (which I thought was funny)

Aaron A., Friday, 4 April 2003 00:52 (twenty-one years ago) link

Her horse/elephant joke during the Superbowl was the highlight of my month.

nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 4 April 2003 00:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

I though Col. Angus was funny too!

no she does NOT look like Melissa Rivers.

Aaron A., Friday, 4 April 2003 01:02 (twenty-one years ago) link

Tina Fey is cute yeah and funny yeah, but she just ain't GOT it like Molly Shannon or Maya Rudolph.

All three (Fey, Shannon, Rudolph) are insanely overrated and woefully undertalented.

Silverman, meanwhile, is a totally different breed of cat.

Sarah Silverman is hot and funny. Molly Shannon and Maya Rudolph have no appeal to me, either hot-wise or funny-wise. Tina Fey, on the other hand, is my one and only celebrity crush.

Tep (ktepi), Friday, 4 April 2003 01:52 (twenty-one years ago) link

I mentioned both Silverman and Fey on the "So, right, then, who do you fancy?" thread. My crushing skillz are beyond your comprehension. (Is that chaki's blood back there?)

bnw (bnw), Friday, 4 April 2003 01:52 (twenty-one years ago) link

This Silverman girl is not cute. My current celebrity crush is Eve. yum.

That Girl (thatgirl), Friday, 4 April 2003 01:53 (twenty-one years ago) link

Maya Rudolph's freckles kill me.

bnw (bnw), Friday, 4 April 2003 01:54 (twenty-one years ago) link

she looks a little horsey, if you ask me.

hstencil, Friday, 4 April 2003 01:54 (twenty-one years ago) link

that girl on point

jess (dubplatestyle), Friday, 4 April 2003 01:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

sarah silverman was a good co-host on the show. she is sassy and smart and a good person.

on the times when she did the funny comedy sketch pre-filmed things like singing for old people and teaching comedy to kids ------ that wasn't very funny and no one laughed at it.

tina fey is okay. she has crazy scars on her face and she's kind of funny but the being too cute thing that someone said before it true.

maya rudolph is wonderful. she is the only hot one out of the three, i think. she's very brown and freckled.

"I saw my father naked once . . . But it was okay . . . Because I was soooo young . . . and sooo drunk."

Sarah Silverman is extremely cute when not all done up... BELIEVE.

Aaron A,, Friday, 4 April 2003 02:36 (twenty-one years ago) link

My current celebrity crush is Eve. yum.

Eve looks like she has an extra chromosone.

Alex is OTM, as usual, except for the Jimmy Fallon crack upthread.

Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 4 April 2003 02:41 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think Sarah Silverman is kinda funny -- except for the part of her that's like, "Wink wink. Ain't I vulgar?" Yes, you're vulgar. And yes, it's funny. But I'm not winking back.

jaymc., Friday, 4 April 2003 03:02 (twenty-one years ago) link

Sarah Silverman makes Tina Fey look about as sexy as an incontinent orangutan with Down's syndrome by comparison.

Jimmy Fallon, meanwhile, simply IS an incontinent orangutan with Down's syndrome.

Yeah! I obviously mean it, maaaaaan.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 4 April 2003 04:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Blount's first post is OTM. JBR's criticism is maybe too. But I think self-amusement can be ok, though, when there's substance behind it (Sarah, yes, Jimmy, no).

Tina Fey is not remarkable.

tina fey is too goy

one month passes...
I take back what I said about Jimmy Fallon. His discovery that all he needs for a dead-on Pat O'Brien impression is to pretend that he has a cold - well, it's the stuff of genius.

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 8 May 2003 19:22 (twenty years ago) link

Wait. People think Molly Shannon's hot?

mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 8 May 2003 19:29 (twenty years ago) link

I wish I had time to reproduce the Sarah Silverman snippet I caught while flipping past the end of some Comedy Central Colin Quinn show. It was about the birds and the bees. And it ended with "pretty soon, that little bee just can't get enough bird cock."

nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 8 May 2003 19:31 (twenty years ago) link

Sarah Silverman - the exact perfect balance of "yowzah!" and "HA!" that God should have held out for with all humans. Just tooooooo perfect.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 8 May 2003 19:32 (twenty years ago) link

She reminds me of the hot older sister of the friend of the bar mitzvah boy who is bored to tears and wants to go smoke out back or better. She probably would have a name like Shoshanna or something though.

amateurist (amateurist), Thursday, 8 May 2003 19:36 (twenty years ago) link

I stopped her from leaving her purse at the table at a Cafe in L.A. a few months back. She was very gracious, but she didn't offer me a joke as a reward... Oh well.

Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 8 May 2003 19:39 (twenty years ago) link

People who laugh at stand-up kind of bother me, unless you're drunk and it's Mitch Hedberg. The style is too hackneyed and tied to its own convention. Mitch Hedberg at least fucks with it, kind of- he doesn't bother with the inane and boring lead-ins and idiotic attempts at segues that mar so much comedy TO THIS DAY (which I find INEXPLICABLE, nay, INEXCUSABLE, since the form has been around forever).

That said, TF is more attractive than SS to me - but on the other hand, SNL licks chicken asses.

Millar (Millar), Thursday, 8 May 2003 20:44 (twenty years ago) link

Is Mitch Hedberg the Mitch with the glasses and the sort of drawl? (In other words, the guy whose last name I can never remember?)

Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 8 May 2003 20:50 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah

Millar (Millar), Thursday, 8 May 2003 21:01 (twenty years ago) link

Goddamn he's funny. And now I know his name! (Millar, if you haven't listened to any Lenny Bruce, I think you'd like him.)

Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 8 May 2003 21:06 (twenty years ago) link

Or Bill Hicks!!

Mr. Diamond (diamond), Thursday, 8 May 2003 21:07 (twenty years ago) link

Oh, come on. Sarah Silverman is funny.

In July 2001, she told a joke on the talk show "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" that went like this: When Silverman received a jury-duty notice, she complained to a friend that she didn't want to serve; the friend suggested she send back the form with something racist written on it, like "I hate chinks," because surely she would be ruled out as a juror. Silverman's reply? "I didn't want them to think I was racist, but I did want to get out of jury duty, so I wrote, 'I love chinks.'"

That's funny.

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Thursday, 8 May 2003 21:09 (twenty years ago) link

Lenny Bruce, however, is not funny.

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Thursday, 8 May 2003 21:10 (twenty years ago) link

Bah! I like Sarah Silverman, yeah, but Lenny Bruce is still funny. Not all of his material ages well -- but what does is still great.

Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 8 May 2003 21:12 (twenty years ago) link

Kenan Hebert sucks.

hey focusing on a famous woman's looks and age and casting aspersions on how she can manage to look young when she's in her 40s is really great

jason waterfalls (gbx), Tuesday, 26 July 2016 23:38 (seven years ago) link

it's like if you keep doing that women might get the mistaken impression that you're judging them somewhat based on their appearance, which is obviously ludicrous

Fair. Apologies for thoughtlessly contributing.

One bad call from barely losing to (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 26 July 2016 23:41 (seven years ago) link

Sarah needs a new thread whose title doesn't encourage us to constantly debate her hotness.

Call it "Conversations about AND conversations about conversations about Sarah Silverman"

a simba man (Will M.), Wednesday, 27 July 2016 00:57 (seven years ago) link

xpost No aspersions here! I thought she looked great for whatever age, but especially for 45. When I was watching I did note her makeup, but mostly because especially in the HD TV world when everyone, man and woman alike, is absolutely pancaked with makeup, she wore it particularly well.

Can't remember if this has been on the forum but it's a funny/horrible story

Robert Adam Gilmour, Wednesday, 27 July 2016 13:17 (seven years ago) link

You think she has an entire team of make-up artists that, when she's driving from her house to UCB to do ten minutes unannounced in front of 60 seats, meet her backstage and spend an hour elaborately making her up?

― Shakey δσς (sic), Tuesday, July 26, 2016 4:19 PM (Yesterday)

oh my god you have just described my personal fantasy...especially if ucb has ac and not swamp cooler

the lava-staring club (Abbott), Wednesday, 27 July 2016 17:04 (seven years ago) link

I don't know what swamp cooler is and can't speak to backstage, but the theatre itself is a sweatbox

Shakey δσς (sic), Wednesday, 27 July 2016 23:18 (seven years ago) link

Guys Sarah Silverman - C/D, S/D etc.

Οὖτις, Thursday, 28 July 2016 00:20 (seven years ago) link

Swamp Cooler is like Ecto Cooler for people whose childhood memories are all wrapped up in Gator Bait 2: Cajun Justice.

how's life, Thursday, 28 July 2016 00:49 (seven years ago) link

I don't know what Gator Bait 2: Cajun Justice is and I only know that Ecto Cooler was some American Ghostbusters tie-in or cash-in consumer product from dumb clickbait headlines I haven't clicked on in recent months, not what it is

Shakey δσς (sic), Thursday, 28 July 2016 01:01 (seven years ago) link

sic, disregard these lying liars. a swamp cooler is a cheaper, low-tech type of air conditioner that uses evaporative cooling. it has a fan that blows warm air across a wet surface. the evaporation of the water cools the air. it works pretty well in low humidity places, such as the CA desert, but works very badly in high humidity places, such as almost anywhere east of the Mississippi.
