Maria Bamford on Credit Cards
I think before giving me a credit card, they should have given me a math test. A series of story problems. "If Maria's boyfriend is in a folk band but he only smokes pot every other day, what percentage of the rent will he be able to contribute?" Now I thought 50%. But the answer is zero.

I've never really thought of myself as depressed as much as paralyzed by hope.
