#look I know I made fun of her about the Brooklyn dodgers but she’s right here and they’re making fun of her anyway and kinda condescendingly#they’re talking about the baseball team and she’s talking about the football team!#It’s one of the only times I recall her being genuinely offended by the other celebs’ teasing#because they’re acting like she’s Actually stupid instead of just being silly#they have no reason to tease her about her dated references and she knows it#because the New York giants are definitely a team in the NFL in 1979!#when she says something obscure she owns it but she stands up for herself here#and New York giants Is the $250 response (although San Fran is $500)#it’s not quite enough vindication for my taste but it’s not nothing#it’s in the same vein as the YouTube commenters incensed about the Weird Girls actively trying not to match (wrong take entirely)#and then not saying boo about the Just Some Guys giving goofy ass answers#like… your misogyny is showing.#one of the Just Some Guys said it himself (don’t remember which one). when he got promoted to Dawson’s old spot his wife told him:#‘I liked you better in the first seat. by the time the round was over everyone had forgotten your crummy answer.’#mediocre men can say whatever nutty stuff because ‘they don’t know any better’ but women must say the exact right thing#or else they’re ‘defiant’ or ‘attention whores’ or ‘annoying’#Cher tweet rant over I feel better actually I just tired myself out#match game#fannie flagg
