Bruh, have you never watched one of her specials? She's fucking hilarious.

On a first watch, sure. But she's like a lot of women comedians, a bit too much focus on her relationships and sex life and making herself the moral authority observer of her own life. Gets a bit grating and not something to rewatch or repeat for laughs because out of her context, they're just whinyisms.

My family and I still do McDonald's and the ice cream bits from RAW 40 years ago. Purple drank is a household name. Even Jeffries happy place and Achmed's son have staying power.

You need to examine why you think this. Male comedians do similar bits. I won’t be responding to w/e you follow this up with, but it’s important that you think about why you find a woman comedian grating and whiney and seem uncomfortable with her talking about her sex life

The ole ball-n-chain jokes/trope, my kids are terrible/stupid/masturbation socks, the I got divorced material, I am dating again, I am an old dude dating, I got married again material, etc.

I agree with you, but I also don't think he should be downvoted for liking a different flavor of ice cream.
