I think it was a compliment?
"maybe you really should do stand-up... because you tell so many stories about the retarded little things that happen to you."

About Me
- alison
- I am a vivacious person with effervescent thoughts and bubbly feelings, which I used to save for my diary and therapist before realizing I could share them with a million strangers, unless of course we've met before in which case remember that time we were at that place and then I did that thing? Sorry about that... Also I'm a writer, pop culture analyst/expert and regular TV guest. Care to be impressed by my credentials? Well then, from 2005—2008 I did Best Bets with Alison Rosen, a segment on WNBC's Weekend Today in New York show. I've appeared on Montel, Chelsea Lately, Hannity & Colmes, Fox & Friends and a bunch more and I'm a regular commentator on Fox News Channel's Red Eye. I wrote for the Los Angeles Times when I was 18. I'm a former Time Out New York editor. I'm a contributing editor for Page Six Magazine. I've written for a zillion publications including Rolling Stone, Maxim, Spin, People, Village Voice, New York Press, Nerve, Seventeen, Vibe, Seattle Weekly, Minneapolis City Pages, OC Weekly and Page Six Magazine. I used to play guitar in a punk band. I have naturally black hair. I won NY's Funniest Reporter competition.

I *have* always wanted to know what the deal with airline food was...
Also, please don't do a version of the Aristocrats in this blog. I'm very impressionable.
I think prop comedy is an under served segment of stand-up comedy...also is ventriloquism considered prop comedy? Think about it...

I've done stand-up. It's nerve-wrecking and underpaying. Skip it.
Hmmm, I've never thought of you as a stand up. However, you are an extremely confident woman so you could pull it off! With your quick wit, you could handle hecklers! Have you ever seen how Joe Rogan handles hecklers? He is funny!

Amy Schumer is very good at comedy, but she's kinda nuts (in a sexy way). Maybe she could be your mentor! Can you get me a date with Amy Schumer?

Hmmm.. at first I thought it was a negative comment, but then I realized the person isn't calling YOU retarded, (s)he is saying retarded things happen to you - which is true (like the guy spilling your coffee outside of Starbucks). In fact, retarded things like that happen to all of us.
So, yes - I'd say it's a compliment.
Happy May 1! (although I can't believe we're actually in May already.)
