So, I'm 
sitting up late one Saturday night ... as usual ... and I flip over the Comedy Central to catch whatever's on 'The Secret Stash.' To my surprise, it's an uncut version of Sarah Silverman's stand up special. I can't remember which one, but does it really matter? Silverman's widely considered one of the best female comics around, if not one of the best. Her shtick is basically to get you to laugh when she says stuff no other woman would say. She talks about farting, barfing, her lady parts and many other vulgarities that you wouldn't normally hear come out of a lady's mouth.
That's where she lost me. See, I have this friend, Mandy Schulz. And Sarah Silverman's just not that funny to me any more. To those of you who know Mandy, that's about all I need to say. To those of you who don't, let me tell you, she gets her kicks from running up to you, doing a jump twist, planting her ass right on your arm and ripping a deep-toned butt-splosion. When Silverman just talks about farts, Mandy farts.
As I sat there watching Silverman's standup dead-faces and without laughter, I couldn't understand when I didn't find her funny anymore. Was I growing up, and dick and fart jokes just didn't humor me anymore? Thankfully, no! It wasn't until the next day that I realized, Mandy Schulz ruined Sarah Silverman for me.
