i think she realized early on in her career that she could get laughs by combining the shock value of a nice jewish girl saying racy things with an ironic twist. she does it with race, sex, etc. some of the race stuff she does is clever. some of it isn't. my biggest beef is hipster comics that she's partially responsible for spawning. yes, they're out there. Jasper Redd and i talk about it all the time. i was just bitching to Jesse about it when i was in Frisco. (hella!) there are A LOT of white comics down here in LA who think it's cool to say fucked up, racist shit because they're being "edgy."

anyway. Kamau, i figured since you blogged this, you were cool with people reading this. i hope this doesn't ruin your chances of being in Jesus is Magic II.
