(And yes, Joan would be the first to laugh, facial muscles permitting.)
I don’t.
mmm
I didn’t do anything, but I think what they are saying is that “critical” is a funny word to use for Joan Rivers because criticizing and making fun is one of her main things. Especially her fashion criticism.
Her schtick is being critical. She’s always in critical condition.
Ah, thanks, now I get it.
mmm

The hell is a “golf clap”?
A social disease one catches at the Country Club?
A “golf clap” is the kind of subdued applause one would encounter at a golfing match. — - YouTube
Is that not what I said?
Right, I guess there aren’t too many Jews in central Arkansas. The joke was that I was using a traditional American Jewish phrase* to answer the question of whether someone who is clearly Jewish is Jewish.
*Comic example:
[The Simpsons peer out the window of a bus as they drive through NYC. Bart sees three bearded Orthodox Jews standing on a street corner.]
Bart: “Look! lt’s ZZ Top! You guys rock!”
First Jewish man: “Eh, maybe a little.”
I fear that whether or not she comes out of this coma with intact brain function, her death warrant has pretty much been signed. I actually think she will be declared dead within the next ten days or so. But let’s say she comes out of it, and let’s say she has suffered no brain damage. She’s still 81 years old and this is obviously a HUGE deal, medically. If she were a younger person she might stand a chance but at her advanced age it’s more likely she’ll succumb to some other illness while she’s trying to recover from this one. If this isn’t the end, it’s certainly the beginning of it.
Back in the day Joan Rivers was hilarious. I remember my roommate in college bought one of her comedy albums (maybe around 1984 or so) and the jacket had a picture of the Royal Family Wedding Photo from when Charles and Diana got married – and there was Joan, added into the picture, holding a blender with a bow on it. Cracked me right up, it did. From everything I’ve read and seen she’s very good to her friends and to her fans alike. I hope her death won’t be drawn out and protracted. That would be a cruel way to have it end for someone who was so energetic until this point.
A line of hers from an old, OLD routine that I use more frequently than I would like in my house with the old plumbing is: Don’t hit the rim! Don’t hit the rim!
Yeah, that’s really old. I doubt anyone but me remembers it.
Gee, Fiveroptic, make some positive waves!
Yeah, you’re right. I guess I just like to prepare for the worst. But man, I really do hope she can pull off something truly spectacular here – Johnny L.A. showed us exactly why. That picture is still cracking me up thirty years later. 
I’m reminded of one of her favorite jokes: “I’ve had so much plastic surgery, when I die, I’m donating my body to Tupperware.”
I’m guessing the family requested some private time with her. I feel so bad for her daughter. She’s got a tough decision to make. It’s never easy saying goodbye.
When we took Mama off life support, they put her in a private room and let me sit with her. 
Not a good sign.
