There are times when she is funny. She used to be not bad looking (although, that middle-age spread isn't doing her any favors). But she isn't that funny. And she's not that hot. Her thing is to say the most outrageous and disgusting thing anyone can think of and because it's coming out of a woman who doesn't look like Roseanne, she's a genius? Nah.

that is an ironic play on words, I mean you knew conundrum is screw top, correct?

Sarah Silverman is not adorable.

every time I agree with you I have an identity crisis.

Who am I? What is my purpose in life? but this is right on.

she used to be very thin is this changing?

what sets her apart is that she's marginally better looking than sandra bernhard or better midler or margaret cho. that's all. nothing to see here keep it moving.

TM

Agreed. Not that The Man Show was great, but her show is fucking terrible.

She is cute and has nice breasts - traits that most female comedians lack.

People thought Roseanne was funny.

I like the screw top bottles. Lots of good pinot and shiraz in the screw tops. And you don't get corked bottles, which you have to return to the store for a replacement. Said replacement coming only after you plead your case to the suspicious staff, of furrowed brow and matching golf shirts, who generally appear to suspect that you drank the whole bottle and replaced it with red wine vinegar in order to rip them off.

Which I have thought of doing. But I am lazy, which is the primary impediment to my becoming the sort of criminal genius I always thought I would be.

Any successful relationship requires work. The moose was obviously ready to put the time in and give it every chance to succeed. Don't we need more of that sort of attitude?

Regular Bushmills has a screw top, yet the Black Bush has a cork.

I had the wine store guy tell me this vile french white stuff I'd brought back was "the natural taste for that region." so we drank it, trying to get sophisticated, you know. He would have gotten away with it too, except he tried the same act about another bottle from some other area about 6 months.

Sure, I'm the kind of guy who'll send $100,000 to Nigeria once, but no way I'd fall for that crap again. Little respect would be nice, you know?

so you want to have sarah as your mistress to effect the changing of the wine bottles? I'm not clear on this point...

Someone (not to be named) just solved my career dilemma -- I* am going to get married and become a party planner. This is perfect for me! I realize it isn't as ambitious or aweinspiring as being a secretary, but for little old me it is a funny** enough life goal.

*I did not go to Syracuse, but I was a sorority chick (and cheerleader! and blonde!).

**I am only partly kidding. I would be an AWE$OME party planner. I could bring the Porn Puppy for entertainment.

Hookers and blow come to the Minneapple?

and pookie my mediocre comment was really in refernce to the restaurant manager thing. Not my cup of tea. nor my cuppa money. What do they make, like 35K?

former cheerleaders always make former cheerleader references in business meetings. It is their signature statement.

Your alternative career could be motivational speaker.

I am just awed that the moose worked himself into a bloody pulp without penetration of the statue! Typically it would be the statue that would bleed, right?
