Maria Bamford kinda reminds of... she's got a sort of female Pee-Wee Herman thang goin on.

I'd like to hear Maria do a parody sketch of Dr. Laura Schlesinger talking about her nude photos showing up on the internet. She'd KILL that one.

Her reaction is so cute when she hears the words "Completely, out... of clean clothing." I smile or laugh every time I hear it.

Anybody know what show it was where she made the joke about womens' eccentric, weird ordering habits at restaurants in LA? "Is this burger organic? Ok forget it forget it forget it I don't want it. Ummm.. Can you send me a bowl of boiling water, with ice in it, but make it so the ice isn't all melted and small?" Something like that. :D

she kind of carried marie saying i love maria but i need my co host to make it funner

[jonmcguirk]

i love how it seems like she has a hard time with compliments. which really makes me want to tell her that i think she's wonderful. I love the read she has on people. She has this bit where she talks about her voice not commanding respect, then slips into this other character so convincingly that you wonder if that's her true self. plus she did voiceover for an episode of home movies...which just makes her that much more kickass.

cheers.
