Fran Lebowitz Q&A

[@NoaLives79]

I've only just discovered this lady and I can't get enough of her. I'm not even sure why. She's so cool.

[@kkpaine]

Ditto that. Binge UTubing. My brother said “classic” when I sent him a link. True that.

[@OsirisIxchel]

@@kkpaine I love that someone referred to her as Oscar Wilde's love child. 😎

[@purenkool2024]

She is an irreverent New Yorker intellectual WIT. I can assure everyone that for New Yorkers this is not unusual. 😉

[@jburgett45]

Original, authentic, funny and brilliant! I’ve known about her but with KZbin- there she is!

[@cahg3871]

I think it’s because she has a keen intellect and a sharp tongue,and she isn’t afraid to use both.

[@Melissab704]

“Why is Richard always here?” “He’s my husband, he lives here.” 😂

[@margeryriviers3432]

OMG, two administrations later and these engagements haven’t aged…We *thrive* on Fran’s singular delight in being Fran, and listening to her doing so is forever a pleasure. Fran’s wit and comedy are second only to her dazzling command of the language. Pure joy!

[@nickbarcheck1019]

Fran Lebowitz is a legend.

[@leafbyleaf2912]

Thanks for sharing this, I love Fran Liebowitz, she is brilliant. This is a great quality video. Thanks again!

[@kliffklug6095]

she should be on comedians in cars getting coffee with jerry or her driving the checker around nyc

[@lisandroresto9544]

+kliff klug Jews in Cars Getting Coffee

[@hibiscusst523]

yesss, that would be perfect!

[@MichaelGrey11]

Hell yeah! 👏👏👏

[@amydopson2946]

BRILLIANT!!!! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!! I bet Jerry would love to drive her car too!!! 👏👏

[@kkpaine]

AGREED! Write Jerry on that one.

[@sabrina-hu4ri]

Fran is the best.

[@comicsgrinder]

Fran has her way of looking at the world and she's sticking to it. We might be better off if more of us followed her lead.

[@NashellJezebel]

I love this woman.

[@lindakendall5780]

She is so funny and authentic . I love the way she thinks,

[@maryjensen5716]

Thanks for the video. Fran always makes me laugh and think. I hope this is grammatically correct.

[@csfan65]

You can always count on Fran to be the real deal. Would love to hang out with her.

[@ziziscorsese9475]

In Catholic we were taught the word ‘practice’ had two spellings . As a noun, it was spelled ‘practice’. As a verb, it was ‘practise’ .

[@comicsgrinder]

The verb version is wrong, especially when you consider it not used. Even if it's a rule, what matters is what is in use. The rule eventually becomes a historical artifact destined to die out.

[@dennis_duran]

Ironic considering that “practice” essentially *means* verb. The practice of medicine, practicing religion. It just means doing.

[@noneofyourbusiness8252]

"If you eat donuts, you've obviously thrown caution to the wind."

[@purenkool2024]

It was a facetious remark! You do not need to take it literally. Her sharp witticisms are self-explanatory. You are overstating the obvious which is banal.

[@dennis_duran]

⁠@@purenkool2024 Your thesaurus is showing. It’s just a quote without context.

[@steveneardley7541]

I've seen a bunch of videos with Fran, but she sure was "on" in this one. Very very funny.

[@tutonelylesnaranjo6311]

When are you returning to San Francisco to speak? How would one determine if he or she had talent as a writer? Always a learning experience to listen to you Fran.

[@laurayanelli1447]

Let's trend #franlebowitzforpresident2020 💙

[@marydawkins4190]

lol. listen to her stuff on popularity and presidents. NO, we are not running Fran for president.

[@sandybear61]

Absolutely brilliant

[@markol7819]

Nowwwwwwww I love Fran Lebowitz!

[@elmakim478]

she was right about florida

[@LINDAOZAG]

I had a very old Mercedes and I know what she means. Wish I had found a mechanic who knew how to fix it without ripping me off.

[@manueladarazsdi9675]

Fran, you make me laugh...with the whole catholics and grammar stick.

[@robertbarnier45]

So smart

[@verygood7155]

The Checker body style was from the 50' not 30's

[@monicadevetter2131]

absolutely brilliant !!!

[@user-fo7yq4xg5j]

She could have been a stand up comedian.

[@c.a.savage5689]

I know she's sitting down, but what do you think she's doing??

[@GH-oi2jf]

She’s a humorist, but not a comic.

[@majorfrost8206]

I love that she has a Checker Marathon. The only car that would be more perfect would be a Hudson Hornet but she never mastered a typewriter so a standard might have been a challenge. And she needs a new mechanic, rigging up a fuse is not rocket science.

[@GH-oi2jf]

Yes, it should have been possible to adapt another fuse.

[@kimcronin5033]

They should re publish her books for us,,

[@r.p.mcmurphy6623]

Seriously??? They have never gone out of print. Did you check out Amazon?

[@tutonelylesnaranjo6311]

Cute repartee😃

[@seventyseven6108]

It's said that NYers are fueling the engine over there so l was curious what her response would had been, Y?

[@polanco187]

Fran's experience in buying the fuse is like the Navy's experience in buying a toilet seat.

[@efthimiakonstantinides4699]

I love you!

[@AnnaMishel]

You probably could have found the fuse on eBay.

[@sanfrancisco89]

I don't know why she thinks the body design of her car is from the 1930s. I've heard her say this before, but it is definitely from the 50s.

[@XX-zk2lf]

If you ever get the opportunity to go see her speak, do!

[@deloreswilson1798]

My oldest sister trips because I wear and look "sexy" in men's clothes.Fran and I have something in "common". Our clothing.Only I'm more " dramatically Goth and a dandy who love "alligator " boots and combat boots.I also love black.My whole wardrobe is basic black.I'll be ready if I have to attend a funeral.The men that I've dated always said I looked better in men's clothing than they did.They thought it was sexy and bold.Total rebellion.Am I gay.No .I love everything about a man.Even their clothes.I use to choose my dad's clothes.What I thought would look good on him.My sisters couldn't have cared less.It tickled my mom.I was a daddy's girl.He was the handsomest man in the world to me and my sisters.But I adored both of my parents but it was daddy who I epitomized.He'd comb and brush my hair.Find me a man who'll comb and brush my hair and let me eat out of his plate.That might be "love".😉🤗

[@FriendofDorothy]

...should be in an anthology called "voices from the closet"....

[@rberliner6680]

An image can have an effect on you without you understanding it. But the in order for the written word to have an effect, you have to understand it. Without understanding it, it has no effect on you . (Ergo, reading is an experience of privacy)👀

[@seventy-seven68]

l was waiting for a question on Palestine.

[@Vxjxgegrjfk]

why?

[@deansellitto865]

Because its important. Jews should be the vanguard in the fight against the fascist Israeli state like Dr Norman Finkelstein and Noam Chomsky.

[@terminalpictures]

Did Interview Magazine somehow make the situation worse in the 70s via her columns?

[@nhl041976]

wonder woman... right there.

[@AnnoyingKiwiDude]

Amazing woman

[@amydopson2946]

I've long admired Fran Lebowitz, although never agree 100%. But to find out she's a car woman...gives me a whole NEW LEVEL OF RESPECT!!! Men, if you meet a woman who loves cars....you better grab her, and never let her go!!! Your undercarriage will thank you! 😎🤣

[@amydopson2946]

That being said....no woman will ever REALLY understand the ElCamino! 🤣🤣

[@purenkool2024]

She is also a gay woman.

[@terrysullivan4700]

Why is that important?

[@CSILVIE]

She may not want a man to grab her. She purports to be a member of the LBGBTQ community. If you think about it, she’s 100% original, brillant, superb!

[@jake27990]

She repeats the same jokes in all of her interviews....

[@mrlopez-pz7pu]

jake frost she doesnt tell "jokes". The reason for similarities is because the ones that are available are from 2012-ish when the Scorsese doc came out.

[@purenkool2024]

We all have limitations... it is called the “human condition”. She is a writer not a comedian.

[@r.p.mcmurphy6623]

Cause people ask her the same questions for 40 years...duh

[@pablojavieralfaro8999]

*I don´t get why american people chew gum.*

[@AnnaMishel]

Fran, once is a great while . . you are wrong. This was the great while!

[@ryanmcinnis5702]

The thin linen structurally boil because cricket curiosly stretch around a lethal mustard. open, acidic spleen

[@maureenrobinson51]

The regular pike coincidingly succeed because tub legally queue against a talented band. sedate, gigantic sharon

[@keirawatterson6137]

The holistic regret cranially remind because observation ipsilaterally settle out a debonair brow. guiltless, clean employee
