+aaronwhitebooga She's not more famous because her comedy doesn't have enough widespread appeal. But isn't that why people enjoy alternative comedians and musicians - because they DON'T have mass appeal?
aaronwhitebooga ... (1) She's old and wrinkly (2) Her slice-of-life humor is aimed at the foolish and defeated behavior of Midwesterners instead of the more glamorous perversity and savage bitterness of NY/LA. Young people either can't relate or are trying to escape. Young people drive fame. (3) She does very little political or social-issues humor. (4) She is a whipped, defeated, cringing woman. She makes no effort to hide it. Young people don't want to face their helplessness and shame in such a naked way. They want to hide from it by identifying with someone who appears immune to it. Thus their preference for comedians with sarcastic, bitter don't-give-a-crap attitudes. Its only when we get older and give up hiding that we are willing to acknowledge and enjoy displays of the human fears and weakness we all have in common.
Him With The Hair ... I adore Maria Bamford. I was just trying to describe the mindset of people who don't. Apparently I did a really accurate job, because you mistakenly thought I was one of them.
she's SO smart and im SO old i have had to hear some of her jokes more than once to really get what she's saying and it's always brilliant awesome sauce* :D i love her.
Oh my God. How much did they pay the audience to sit through this? I see her sycophants are here posting their blind undying love and devotion. Seriously, I watched the first 5 minutes and it actually lowered my IQ for a those five minutes. It's a shame how dumbed down alot of people have become.
Maria Bamford is walking, talking, comedic testimony, proving that Saturday Night Live is a hack late night tell-lie-vision show that had it's best Saturday nights decades and decades ago. The fact that she hasn't been made a regular cast member on that show speaks volumes to all the political insanity that infests network T.V. as a whole. Maria is clever, funny and authentic. SNL is the exact opposite. :-I
It was a clever joke that most people are not going to catch on to. John 3:16 from the New Testament is possibly the most popular verse in the entire Bible. *_"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life"._* People at sporting events hold a sign John 3:16 so people will look it up. :-I
Still my favs, even though she is my doctor and her perscription is still narcissism,not in the old hand held kind but the Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson kind! You Crazies know what I'm talking about. Shit was that out loud?
