    I was going to post the video of the evidence, but it was apparently removed earlier today because of copyright infringement.... But there is this video:

      Well, the whole time he was talking about the poltergeist, I was thinking about 10th grade English and how we called that the Houdini. I probably said almost exactly the same words Amy did and I’m pretty sure she didn’t plagiarize me...

    “I made a joke about dating, and then AMY made a joke about dating!! THEN I made a joke about boobs, and of course Amy went and made a boob-joke too! Then I did this whole bit where it would be surprising that I was being crass because I am a girl, you know? Guess what! AMY went and did that too! And Amy NEVER steals the men’s jokes about dicks.”

      Jeeeeeeesus. Agreed! And perhaps a smattering of perspective would also be helpful for her, I’m guessing? Yikes.

      Seriously. It’s like when 14 year olds call their moms and pops Hitler because they won’t extend their curfew ‘till 11. Chill kids. Chill white people.

    In college, during a particularly sad dry spell I made some joke about having to put twigs and leaves over my vagina in the hopes that I could trick someone into falling in. A few years later, I see Margaret Cho doing the exact same joke. Clearly, Cho didn’t steal the joke from me. I’m not making a definite judgment in this case, but I do think that people tend to think of the same things from time to time.

    When I was a little kid, once in the bathtub I “invented” soap on a rope, too. I was heartbroken when my mom told me it already existed.

      Wow that's a very specific (and very good) joke! Our brains are all connected. It's almost like we belong to a community of humans in a shared culture or something.

    “Parallel thinking,” is apparently very real. I should know. I was at Kate Mantellini at lunch one day many years ago, and coined the term “Beniffer,” at sighting Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. And thus, the hybrid naming was born. I can’t really “prove” I started the (most likely overheard, and now very dated trend), but it really did start from there.

      I coined “hottie” in 1992. And also invented Clorox wipes in 1997. I know whereof you speak.

      I mean, they’d have to prove she was aware of these routines, and even then it’s not like you can offer hard evidence that she intentionally took the jokes.

    Finally. For far too long the discussions on Amy Schumer have been annoyingly controversy free.

      Is this sarcasm? Or do you sit around waiting for famous people to be torn down? Or do you have a beef with Amy Schumer? Genuinely curious.

    When you get right down to it, there’s like....what...maybe 5 jokes in the world anyway?

    1 - Dick jokes

    2 - Pussy jokes

    3 - “Something that happened to me” jokes

    4 - Religious jokes

    5 - “Did you ever notice” jokes

    I mean, at some point one joke is going to sound like another, right?

    Gadzooks, why would anyone claim credit for the disaster that was her Apollo appearance? That was a lazy, boring, repetitive set and I was super disappointed by it. Frankly, I’d prefer to think she stole those shitty jokes! Sadly, I think she’s just come to rely on her predictable self-effacing-body-bashing humor rather than coming up with anything interesting or empowering.
