2/10
Joke Thief

Warning: Spoilers
Overall her comedy is not for me. If you are also an old woman who is slightly unhinged, you might love it. In fairness I have seen a lot worse and I did find some jokes funny.

I found one joke in particular very funny. I was thinking about this joke later on and I remembered that I had actually heard it before. I need to put a spoiler warning in order to properly explain this. IMDb also required me to censor some of the language. It should be clear where.

Here is the original joke from Chris Rock's Bigger & Blacker show 'You know what men want? Food, Sex & Silence' It is a great joke. Lynne Koplitz says 'what are men's three favorite things? 1. food to the audience, guess? someone yell BJs then she say's I include that in 2. sex and 3 is for women to shut the f*** up.' I don't know how I could make this any clearer. That is the same joke. I'd believe she thought of any one of the three things independently, but, all three in exactly the same order. She stole his joke. I find that disappointing. It is never okay to steal other people's work like that. What makes it worse is she clearly knows how to write her own jokes. She didn't need to do this.

Like I say, even if her style of comedy is not for me, I have seen worse. However, the joke stealing really bothered me and I had to mention it somewhere.
