The *OFFICIAL* Russia Is About To Invade Ukraine Thread

I am reading a memoir by Hannah Gadsby, Australian comedian. Just read the part where she disses Hitchens for his stance that women cannot be funny.

I've met her a couple of times, not very funny in person...

Hitchens is a bit of a ****** but he was fiercely intelligent.
 
I saw something recently where they said that both men and women highly value humor in a potential mate.

But men and women have different definitions of what it means for their potential partner to have good humor.

For women it's if the man makes her laugh.

For men it's weather or not the woman laughs at his jokes.
Ugh. I'm annoyed that this is true. I've always said I wanted a guy who makes me laugh, but I've never said I wanted a guy who thought I was funny. Which is annoying because I actually am pretty funny at times. Burn the patriarchy!

That whole autism thing gets in the way, I suppose.

I'm supposed to see her perform on Saturday, but my friend is waiting for the results of a Covid test so I may not get there. I had no idea who she was until my friend got the tickets, so I watched Nanette and am reading her book. I'll be sad if I miss my only opportunity to see an autistic Australian lesbian comedian.

If she was aboriginal she could cover all bases and be the human rights commissioner... I used to work with a guy who was gay, had HIV and bless him was a little bit dim. I was sitting next to our boss while we watched him try to count to 9 (it was quite some time) and our boss turned to me and the duty manager and said "look at him, gay, HIV and clearly retarded (it was 20 years ago you could say stuff like that) , there has to be some government program that will pay me to hire him." We laughed knowing that his wife and co-owner loved him and would probs pick PJ over the boss.

I didn't know she was autistic, I just assumed she was a bit different. Ive hung out with a lot of comic over the years, male and female she was definitely one of the more awkward in a social setting.
