10 funny Tina Fey quotes

Tina FeyElizabeth Stamatina "Tina" Fey (born May 18, 1970) is an American actress, comedienne, writer, and producer. In 1999 she became the first-ever female head writer for 'Saturday Night Live' and in 2004 she made her screenwriting and movie-acting debut with 'Mean Girls.' In 2006 she became the creator, writer and star of her own series, the wildly popular '30 Rock', a behind-the-scenes comedy about an SNL-type show.

one
I like to crack the jokes now and again, but it's only because I struggle with math.

two
Researches reported that they developed a "self-healing" plastic that repairs itself if cracked. The plastic will change the way airplanes are built and medicine is practiced. In a related story, Joan Rivers will never die.

three
At the request of the Catholic Church, a three-day sex orgy to be held near Rio de Janeiro was cancelled last Friday. So instead I spent the weekend cleaning my apartment.

four
A Harvard Medical School study has determined that rectal thermometers are still the best way to tell a baby's temperature. Plus, it really teaches the baby who's boss.

five
President Bush gave a rousing speech to the United Nations General Assembly. Afterward, in a touching show of support, every foreign dignitary shook hands with the president and smiled warmly as he mispronounced their names.

six
In Washington, officials from the National Rifle Association met with a group of high school students. There were no survivors.

seven
If you want to make an audience laugh, you dress a man up like an old lady and push her down the stairs. If you want to make comedy writers laugh, you push an actual old lady down the stairs.

eight
I was the editor of the school newspaper and in drama club and choir, so I was not a popular girl in the traditional sense, but I think I was known for being relatively scathing.

nine
I had to get back to work. NBC has me under contract. The baby and I only have a verbal agreement.

ten
Prostitutes in Lyons, France, sent a fax to the government to complain that they are losing business to Eastern European women who are protected by the Albanian mafia. Okay, first of all, how rough-looking are these French prostitutes that all their customers are running to the Albanians? Secondly, why did they send a fax, and from whence? Do they have a fax machine in the whorehouse, or did they all trundle down to Kinko's — "You fax these, I'll let you shave me." Thirdly, how come French whores know how to work a fax machine, but every time I try to use it, I hit Powersave, or I forget to dial 9? This just proves what my boyfriend always says — that I am dumber than a French whore.
