[@occasionalbuddha8649]

People have no idea how difficult it is to be funny in a second language. This woman is funny.

Funny. Her mix of two cultures works and the fact she understands and plays on western humour is great. Very creative and intelligent.

[@oldaccount7370]

"Being gay is so hard, you have to have an opinion" FOR REAL THOUGH

[@WordsFromTheHam]

Erin Sian Wynn How gay is just a sexual preference? You know whats hard? Being black not that's diffucult.

[@oldaccount7370]

it's just a joke my guy

[@tomiwaaina5499]

opinion on what?

[@missylarsson3517]

Tomiwa Aina I think the joke is that men don’t care about the opinions of women but when she dated a woman she suddenly needed to have one. Idk I could be wrong.

[@macnolds4145]

She's witty and hilarious, and her accent is clear enough to be charming instead of distracting. She has those "next level" kind of jokes (e.g. "...being gay is so hard...you have to have an opinion"). Good stuff.

[@DownloadDeX]

she goes between looking 20 and 40 depending on her facial expressions and its creeping me out.

[@blazin220]

DownloadDeX she's above 40 so it's a plus I guess

[@sux2bu2day]

Whoa. I remember her when she an import model at car shows, and now she's a comic? Anyone else? No, just me? Dang.

[@SuperKokuJin916]

Hell yeah! I think I still have that Import Tuner magazine from 2003. She does guest appearances on ADD from time to time.

[@RayMysteryo]

sux2bu2day wat

[@EikottXD]

sux2bu2day , dude she was Eliott Changs roommate for a while. Might still be. But she did pose nude. Quick Google and I'm sure you'll find pics.

[@rmrpictures1]

I photographed her a couple of times for mags, she was a sweetheart. Glad to see she transitioned into something else and is working...

[@brads.1766]

[@kingsway420]

She fucking hilarious and beautiful as well.. she’s just off the wall with her comedy. You never know where she’s going!! ❤❤❤

[@boombap08]

This women is funnier than most women who speak english as their first language. She actually has jokes that are not just about how vulgar we can be.

[@user-cu9mo3vl3j]

I fucking died with the shit in his shoes thing 😂😂

[@seanabel5979]

Shes got a such a beautiful smile ❤❤❤

[@jag5014]

She mentioned on the Stern show that she hooked up with girls in the past and even dated a girl, so she may not be Gay but she is bi inclined.

[@skyler7017]

Eagle Knight or straight?.. you don't go around telling ppl they aren't gay because they saw an attractive person of the same sex.

[@skyler7017]

I don't think you're in a position to be telling other people what their sexual orientation is and shit, you'll be walking In the street point at ppl like "your gay,your straight,your gay, your bi".

[@mjade1673]

She said shes gay twice here. Get over it. Its not your call bro

“I can shit in your shoes and he’ll say I love your art” lollll

[@Kimi-nk5ix]

[@lilrejct]

Nico Nunez who ever said women can't be funny?

[@pd7535]

u know of a female comedian thats funny thats doing stand up right now

[@shenacolada]

Nico Nunez Cameron Esposito and Reta Butcher are funny. I forgot her name, but the girl who plays Louise in Bob's Burgers is funny. A lot of women are funny, you just have to actually look for them, and not just say that there are none without looking for them

[@johannesgh90]

For instance Christopher Hitchens said that women can't be funny. There are some evolutionary psych explanations for why men might be, on average, more driven to try to be funny, but expanding that to a rule about all women is pretty stupid, especially for a smart man like him. Maria Bamford is hilarious, Whitney Cummings is quite talented... Sarah Pascoe, Andi Osho and Katherine Ryan are good ones from the UK scene.

[@neonwingz]

Lisa lampaneli, Tina Fey, Sarah Silverman are very funny, should check them out
