Try telling these women that they're not funny

This post is related to this.

There's a stereotype out there that women are not funny. Vanity fair even did an article on how unfunny women are. Found here. Besides the fact that this entire piece is rooted in a stereotypical, heteronormative perspective, it's totally untrue. Women are funny, I'm funny, my female friends are funny. So I wonder how many examples of funny women I can come up with that spit in Christopher Hitchens' eye every day they go to work? So in no peculiar order:

Kristen Schaal

Sarah Haskins

Samantha Bee

Paula Poundstone

Kathy Griffin

Phyllis Diller

Lily Tomlin

Minnie Pearl

Mo'Nique

Julia Louis-Dreyus

Adele Givens

Aisha Tyler

Laura Hayes

Jan Krakowski

Marilyn Martinez

Sara Contreras

Monique Marvez

Tejana Sandra Valls

Maria Bumford

Sarah Silverman

Wanda Skyes

Lucille Ball

Carol Burnette

Tracey Ullman

Joan Rivers

Amy Poehler

Tina Fey

Margaret Cho

Janeane Garafalo
