Kristin Wiig is the sexiest woman operating on television. I've long resisted the belief that the ability to be funny, to evoke something as humbling an experience as laughter, is directly related to intelligence. It just seemed to easy and I didn't want to fall into the trap of looking for the wrong things. Katie and I were talking over weekend when there a few hours spare to talk about these things. Katie says funny and smart are related. The argument makes sense to a degree. There must be a certain pre-requisite of emotional intelligence to it. A massuse goes to massuse school to know all the right pressure points, so clearly the funny one's got to know something about the head and heart to know what warrants a laugh from a fellow human being. Understanding is so important. Kristin understands that we're put-off by better-than-thou conversation-topper, we sympathize in laughter and mercy with the overly nervous girl in a woman's suit, and we kinda just love the middle aged woman who can get excited at the mere insinuation of the mundane. Kristin understands a piece of our humanity and through whatever training she had, she learned how to manipulate her body, her voice, and her face to let us become aware of this understanding that she possesses, and we're genuinely caught off guard and it's a gift to us and we're humbled by it. And even if all that's crap and she's just an idiot, she's actually wicked hot so we're all saved. What's gonna happen to us?
