Chewing the Fat

I had a great gig at Stockton College's Kramer Hall last month. Or should I say Stockton University? Congrats to the local college out here that just obtained university status as the Board of Trustees voted on Feb. 18, 2015 to change Stockton’s official designation and name from college to university. I guess I should have gotten more money.

But after the show my friend came up to me and said. "You are not fat enough to do all those fat jokes." Now I was wearing a dark dress and the lighting was a bit shadowy. She probably was also distracted by my perfectly straightened hair and well-blended makeup courtesy of local stylist Barbara Maskos. But still. Not fat enough? Has their been a shift? Did Governor Christie actually accomplish something being in the public eye all this time?

How fat is too fat anyway? I mean we go after a starlet, if they venture out of the size zero category. Or now that I think about it if they go into an "A"cup category. So I guess it cuts both ways. But Ruben Studdard? Go ahead daddy and get as big as you want you little cutie. We even go after women when their being in the public eye has nothing to do with their bodies like poor 'ol Hillary Clinton. Don't her politics? Well have you seen the size of her calfs?

But back to me. Should I have considered "not fat enough" as a compliment? Or a warning? Have we all gotten so huge that I am now a medium? The best part of everything is that being called called fat goes in one ear and right out the other. But question my material? Well then we got problems. 

Thanks Barbara-ya skinny bitch.

Oh and here are the jokes in question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0Lw4RrS-Ho

Michelle Tomko's comedy is a fervent blend of tomboy sensibilities courtesy of the older brothers she grew up with in the Midwest and the barrage of perimenopausal chaos the East Coast world has heaped upon her. She pulls her humor from everyday observations and classic stories of family, travel, pets, and adversity. With razor-sharp crowd work and improvisational skills to the rock-solid timing of a veteran performer, Michelle’s act is not to be missed!
