"Take it like a Man" (2005)-Track 12."Stereotypes"

Track #12

7:49

By far the largest track, the only one longer than  "#9.My Mother, My Man, and my Children", this starts out with Lisa yet against mentioning Hector, this time as one of the great sports for having a
good sense of humour about being racially roasted.

She's not just a comic (in this), she's also a motivational speaker.

Her books?

I'll give ya somethin to cry about

I'm okay you're not

Men are from mars, sissies from venus


Her fund?
The Lisa Lampanelli United Negro expletivies deleted fund

Becuase 12 inches is a terrible thing to waste.

Every walk of life, she notes, she needs to be in, and the n word with the R on the end cannot be used.

The word? Neighbor.

She then cracks wise wwith indidvual members of the audiuence to the end and that, therefore,
winds up this review of "Take it like a Man"-the very first major Lisa Lampanelli video/CD (titles refer only to the CDs.)

This, therefore, completes and therefore ends the very first Lisa Lampanelli CD review on this blow.









"Dirty Girl" from 2007 will be reviewed next.

Stay tuned, stinky and sick Lamapnelli friendday, and until next weekend, hopefully Saturday morning for another review and of the second
CD.

Four more from "Take it like a Man"(2005)

Forgot about doing this on Saturday and it was Valentine's day..and some of these are short, sohhhhhhh

LL lovers I will post these from Comedy's (and Comedy Central's and Standup's) Loveable Queen of Mean, the Donna Rickles, first CD:

"The Train to Browntown"

Track #5

1:39

Starts out with Lisa Lampanelli talking to the audience about staring at people and quotes women calling each
other that unmentionable B word.

Highlights include her asking someone if they're hispanic, and then facetiously ordering them to
keep their hands out of others purses. She also addresses a married man as a little Hispanic husband

She does a good, brief, 1:39 length job at roasts...



"Pillow Talk" Track #6

4:19

No Doris Day talk, but lots of talk about athlete's foot in the shower. Lisa talks of being paroled to an audience member. The show
satarts to have some more of Miss Lampanelli's weird sounds and for the first time her play on the inevitable "Once you go black/
you never go back" catchphrase, already much parodied and lampooned much more recently in 2010's "Vampires Suck" appears
(in which movie the phrase was: "Once you go bat/you never go bak". Here it's "Once you go black you're gonna use your crack".

A little later an extremely inspired play on a legendary princess tale appears, Strok-a-hontas, presumably due to a Native American
woman's appearance. Her humor then turns later to Peeing in the shower which is taking this in a real off the wall fashion..

Any way, now with 4:20 minutes, we now get to have a much longer bit of comedy bits than in the last one before.


Next is  "Men Are Good & Women are Beautiful", a phrase mentioned in the following and last.
Track #7

2:45

This bit starts out with Lisa talking about private stuff, and doing a play on the old television and radio advertisements for Oscar Meyer Wieners
"your baloney has a name".

Here Lisa sharts mentioning her Mexican friend Hector who reappears in her final monologue.

Talk about Rubbish and Jungle also appears and makes this pretty good..if just over two minutes

And finally
"It's Funny Because It's True"Track #8


2:06

Liosa starts out with calling both men and women beautiful and telling her friend Hector to get "hot sauce on your chimichanga" and mentions the bits title.

THe real big funny stuff here comes when she asks how could men take their unmentionable and put it behind the womens headlights and makes a sick-playing
(you can guess what it is) sound effect.

"Take it Like a Man" (2005):Track 3:"Take it Like a Man"

#3

2:12

(title track)

This one, like the title suggests, has Lisa reassuring that what she does is just a roast and guys, particularly, should not be
offended ("take it like"..ahhh...you know the saying and title).

"People should be able to take a joke...take it like a man"!

"I called a guy and he says
[expletive deleted] you [rhymes with witch"

One real funny thing is a reference to curry being stronger thana deodorant, then
quotes the old "strong enough for a man but made for a woman" Secret(tm/r) deodorant
advertising campaign

A little later near the end she refers to chicken wings and her friend Hector (often men tioned through hewr act on this CD)

She acknowledges liking guys who can take a joke, in keeping with the title of this bit, also mentioning girls in relaiton to this bit.

This is mayb e a quite important and crucial track since it acknowledges that Lisa Lampanelli's stuff is meant in fun, to take it like a man
(or woman..but mostly of all, like a man!)


Since then, Lisa Lampanelli is NOT the QUEEN of MEAN but the LOVABLE queen of MEAN...actually COMEDY's LOVABLE QUEEN of MEAN.

"Take It Like a Man" (2005):Track 2: "Hector, My Parents & Soccer Moms"

HECTOR, MY PARENTS & SOCCER MOMS

Track #2

Time:1:51



With the Intro done, here is an instant funny bit that gets "Take it like A Man" under way.

Lisa starts here with the following:

"Love that little (nasty word for Latin)"

"Once you go Hispanic your mom and dad start to Panic".







Hector is a f riend that gets mentioned a lot in Lisa Lampanelli bits and is a target for her fuinny stuff.

Her basic topics here are on her parents and soccer moms, which she gives and imaginative description of.

The rhymes, like the "Once you go black you never go back", already turned on its head a lot (2010's "Vampires Suck", for one, just put in "bat" for "black")
will get a lot more twisted through this and the four CD's and specials after.
