# Amy Poehler!

I recently hurt myself on a treadmill and it wasn’t even on. I was adjusting my speed and stepped wrong and twisted my ankle. I felt a moment of frustration filled with immediate relief. I didn’t have to actually work out, but I still got credit for trying. It was a gym snow day.

Stop whining about getting old. It’s a privilege. A lot of people who are dead wish they were still alive.

* * *

I don’t consider myself beautiful or famous, but my vagina certainly is. Everyone knows this. I have the Angelina Jolie of vaginas.

* * *

Telling me to relax or smile when I’m angry is like bringing a birthday cake into an ape sanctuary. You’re just asking to get your nose and genitals bitten off.

* * *

People are their most beautiful when they are laughing, crying, dancing, playing, telling the truth, and being chased in a fun way.

I thought I’d look it up, and the search results mostly point to _Sesame Street_. However [one person said](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%253ABanana_in_my_ear&ved=2ahUKEwji1sLFvfGPAxX_DTQIHTK_H4YQFnoECCsQAQ&usg=AOvVaw07jGrAzcJVnCZAhnkMgHx3) ‘This joke was old when my grandfather was young; it probably predates TV (not to mention Sesame Street).’

Well, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, and the worm adds a bit of protein. There are worse ways to break fast.

That’s my feeling about it - one of those jokes from the mists of time that are new to each generation. I have a vague memory of someone like Henny Youngman or Georgie Jessel using that joke, although it was the (more common?) doctor’s office version rather than a bar.

A few Summers ago I smashed the end of my finger-- split it like a grape and broke my distal phalanx. The ER doc who treated it looked like a baby. I said “will I be able to play the guitar when it heals?” And he said “yes, absolutely”. I said “great, I couldn’t play the guitar before!”

It’s an adaption of an old Vaudeville joke (the original mentioned a piano), and I thought I’d get a groan, but he laughed out loud.

A man walks into a pub and the landlord’s astonished. Half of the man’s head is half of a huge orange.  
‘So sorry to be nosy,’ the landlord says, ‘but why is half of your head half of a huge orange?’  
‘Well, I was cleaning up the loft,’ the man says. ‘And I found an old lamp. I polished it up, and a genie came swooping out of it, saying, “May I grant you any three wishes, master?”’  
‘So I said, “I’d like to have a million dollars – and every time I take the million dollars out of my pocket, another million appears there.”’  
The genie said, ‘Your wish is granted. And your second wish?’  
The man says, ‘I’d like a big house with 100 beautiful ladies in it.’  
‘Your wish is granted,’ says the genie. ‘And your third wish?’  
‘I’d like half my head to be half of a huge orange.’
