maria bamford 

a breath of fresh air to the dane-cook polluted air of modern american comedy. she is quirky, dark, extremely witty, observational and obnoxiously adorable with her blonde hair and child-like voice. she does not necessarily stick to the classic joke-to-punchline formula but instead relies on storytelling using her unique voices. a shape-shifter of sorts, the bammer is able to drastically change her normal high voice into more masculine, mature, raspy, etc. etc...voices; her most honed and popular impressions would be that of her parents and sister. she suffers from ocd, depression, anxiety which she works into her act. she lives with her eleven year old pug and "wife-partner" blossom. she has a hilarious one-woman sitcom on superdelux.com in which she plays every part and she was also apart of patton oswalt's "comedians of comedy" tour. the bammer is basically a goddess of indie comedy.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
