Brian: so what was the deal with that video you sent me

Brian: everyone i sent it to was like...WTF

Brian: if i ever audition for a show again, i'm using that as my monologue

Brian: it really is the best thing ever

Brian: i really want to know what its from or if she made it up herself

Brian: its probably from some like Younger Man, Older Woman type thing that stars Millie Jackson and plays at the Beacon Theater for 2 weeks

Me: it's from brooklyn cable access in 1984

Me: i love the commercials for the beacon theater shows

Me: they always have some sassy quote

Me: like

Me: "The darker the berry, the sweeter the juice"

Brian: i think thats actually the name of one of those plays

Brian: im always so tempted to buy tickets

Brian: and theres like ramshackle cheap sets and sassy black women breaking out into gospel songs in their kitchens
