“Boy, where’s a social worker would you need one?”

I’m submitting this as the best response of the day. We’ll review at the end of the year to see if it rates BOY, Best of Year.

I’d bet an exception will be made for uber-comrade Babs.

Carol would be “cancelled” today. There was a skit where she was being handed dolls that were supposed to be someone’s babies. One of them was black, and Carol made a shocked face.

Surprised this wasn't published earlier.

I am flooded with disinterest.

Nobody posted this yet. So I'll do the honors

BTW, why is she referring to herself in the third-person? https://twitter.com/BarbaraBoxer/status/1419784140904337410

There are several skits she’d be run out of town for.

A really good sendup of Mission Impossible with Flip Wilson was on recently. Then some of the real (later seasons) MI people showed up at the end which made it funnier.

I like the CB show for the upfront audience interaction with normal people.

You know I wanted to say something snarky, but who would push an 80-year-old woman just to steal a cellphone that he can’t illicitly pawn for more than 25 dollars. Just pure scum.

Barbara bit the big one.

And I laughed and laughed, etc

She is just so deserving of this. Nancy’s next, followed by Maxine, and then our beautimous vice president, I refer to her as “spit...” (Verb not pronoun)
