I don't know if you can tell, but I've always wished I was a big black woman.
-
I am not even kidding.
-
I am not kidding.
-
Growing up in the Bronx, big black women, they are my heroes.
-
Lot of kids, they worship superheroes.
-
But I was like...I don't wanna be like a hulk, I don't wanna ever turn into like a big weird green dude.
-
I wanted to turn into a big black woman because a big black woman doesn't take shit from anybody.
-
I take it from everybody.
-
Right, there is a true story.
-
Recently, I got shushed at a Barnes & Noble.
-
Now...
-
Barnes & Noble is not a library, people...
-
It's a store!
-
Don't let the books throw you!
-
This dude sitting there, and he's reading.
-
He started shush me, he's like...(Shush!!)
-
(slow blink)
-
Then he did that slow blink, you know the slow blink you do to show you are really angry.
-
Shush!! (small blink)
-
The only thing angrier than the slow blink is the super fast blink.
-
(super fast blink)
-
So he shushes me, and he slow blinks me.
-
That was enough!
-
And what did I do?
-
I back down...I back down.
-
Cuz I was in Clark Kent mode.
-
Who am I kidding, I am not even as cool as Clark Kent.
-
I am like a nebbish Woody Alleny Clark, I was like...
-
(Woody Allen's way of talking) I am terribly sorry to...to disturb you...
-
(Woody Allen's way of talking) I...have no idea you could read in a store.
-
You know... and I was thinking...
-
Imagine!
-
But imagine if at that very moment, the moment this guy shushed me,
-
I could turn into my superhero with the snap of finger...Big Black Woman!
-
He shushed me, I would be like...
-
Oh! You did not just shush me, okay?
-
Excuse me!
-
Excu...by the way, nobody does the slow blink better the big black woman.
-
Nobody!
-
Excuse me! (slow blink)
-
Okay, I don't care if you're reading.
-
I don't care if you're concentrating,
-
I don't care if you're trying to find out more about the topic you're interested in.
-
You do not shush a sister in the store, okay?
-
In fact, you shush me one more time,
-
I'm gonna beat you so bad, then I make a movie about it and call it "Tyler Perry's dead white man".
-
And then I will just shake my big black ass.
-
I can't even...
-
My skinny jean no ass can't even pretend to shake a big black ass.
-
It's sad.
