She opened for all the people she stole jokes from in this link IIRC. That's not just some coincidence

Well just to start with one, Patrice O Neal made the "Poltergeist" joke in 2006, and "the Houdini" was uploaded to Urban Dictionary in 2005. So Looks like he stole it too. Or maybe there are a finite amount of funny things to say and after almost 10 years, some will have been repeated. You could likely make it look like any of the major comedians do nothing put rip off past work.

I don't think I've seen her in anything. What is she famous for?

You know the saying... Behind every funny woman is a man that told the same jokes before her.

Amy Schumer has made a career out of being a "thick" woman who discusses her vagina and her sex life. A guy posts a picture of him and her and says he certainly isn't the first guy to spend the night with her, and she proceeds to call him out on Twitter. That's absurd.



It's pretty much a comedians credo to say absurd things and call out people on twitter. I'm sure she has tweeted worse things about people before she had a million plus followers.

The only reason this is news is because she's a woman. It doesn't matter that she "stole" jokes.

No. Do you have trouble trying hard to act like you don't know anything she's done?

Well clearly you do. I never said I had no idea who she is. I said I had never seen her in anything and asked what she is famous for.

Understand the difference, smart guy?

ETA: What, no smartass response?

Really? I thought she was pretty level headed about it. I think she dedicated one of her recent comedy hours to the victims.

Makes sense. I knew she was in Trainwreck. Didn't know she was killing it on the stand up circuit.

ETA: And I don't have cable so I don't catch her on the late night shows.

Obviously. Yet it's not a big deal that he did it. Interesting.

Steals jokes, doesn't steal jokes, it don't really matter, the bottom line is she isn't very funny. at least not funny enough to garner the attention she gets. Somebody else said it right, she's the female version of Dane Cook.

While I'm at it and since nobody asked my opinion, I don't get what people see in Kristen Wiig. she aint funny at all, either.
