Five letter word for ‘Funny lady’

A couple weeks ago, I was working on a crossword puzzle and I tweeted the following:

I need a three letter word for ‘PBS funder.’ ‘Viewers like you’ doesn’t fit.

Right?

RIGHT?

No one got it.

Instead, I got actual responses from (well-meaning! And smart!) people.

But that wasn’t the POINT.

I hate explaining my jokes to people. It leads me to believe I’m not as funny as I think I am.

And that’s the real tragedy here. Looks come and go, but funny is forever, people. If I’m without my humor, then what else do I have?

    I laughed at the tweet, too! I like Temerity Jane’s perspective: if you didn’t laugh, you must not have heard me correctly. 🙂
