Funny Women Around the Web

Elissa Bassist bio ↓  ·  December 11th, 2009  ·  filed under Funny Women, Other

To start a revolution, we need more than just a column.

Occasionally we’d like to link to particularly hysterical funny women all over the Internet.

Edith Zimmerman at The Awl makes me laugh. Below is an excerpt from her column, Letters to the Editors of Women’s Magazines, with Edith Zimmerman:

“As a teenager I always wore baggy clothes—I was considered a tomboy. Once I started reading InStyle, I was finally able to put together my current classy look. Not only do you show great fashion and beauty ideas, but you tell the reader how to get them for herself. That’s why I love this magazine.
Garima S., via instyle.com (InStyle, November 2009)

As a teenager I used to put a toilet paper roll in my underwear and tell people I had a dick. I don’t do it as much anymore, but sometimes I still do it.
Charlotte T., Kansas City”

Read all the letters.
