Oh sure, when Cunk says this kinda thing everyone thinks it's funny but when ICP says this kinda thing everyone thinks they're fools. /s kinda

Perhaps the ICP should appeal more to the everyday layperson.....a gender neutral term coined in 1972, just seventeen years before the unrelated 1989 release of Belgian techno anthem, Pump Up the Jam.

I've seen this lady posted a bunch of times around here lately. Is her whole gimmick that she describes things in a bizarre and unhelpful way?

Basically, she parodies middle class people, and how someone truely stupid would behave if they got to interview experts on various highbrow topics.

And sometimes, she says things that are poignant because they take things out of context, but still make sense.
