Please tell me this is what I've been racking my brain for. :) Or Norm Crosby, for us oldsters. He was a 60-70's standup comedian who misused words. He also has clips on YouTube. In one article they called him, "The Dyslexic Pontificator", another apt "adage" for MM.:) 3 Link to comment

Her grasp of the vernacular is weak to non-existent. I'm convinced that her hubbie writes her blue cards, and they rehearse prior to the show. You can tell that she has to say the whole paragraph at once, cuz she can't do it when interrupted mid-stream, and doesn't understand the gist enough to state the ideas naturally. That's why she gets so angry being interrupted, doncha know. It's like when little kids learn the alphabet; they have to always start at the beginning, otherwise they're lost. I think hubbie throws in the big words (he got somewhere else) to heighten our impression of her intelligence, lol. You would think that, by now, between the two of them , that they would realize that she's not capable of remembering the terms, nor understanding their meaning. More fun for us, when I'm not smacking my forehead thinking I could have had V-8, or Ana to enlighten me with actual substance v. optics, messaging, tribal crap, or adolescent brattiness. In case I wasn't being clear, I believe the Domenech's are both idiots. 11 Link to comment

It was very surprising. I don't think the "early" photos they've shown before were THAT early. I also don't recall that she discussed her ethnicities so much on her first years on the show. Maybe it has taken her awhile to be comfortable within herself. 3 Link to comment

In the '90s, he did his shtick as the pastor in the gay wedding episode of "Roseanne" and it was hilarious. But even that was 20 years ago. 3 Link to comment
