Here's the message I sent to Jackie and her reply. Huzzah for geeky fandom.
If I wrote stand upand let my hair go back to it's natural color and cut it short, I think we would have the same act. I just watched you on Comedy Central, and am
ridiculously impressed. It was so refreshing to hear a woman talking about dorky stuff like videogames and the "Dork Forest." I believe it is about a third of the way into the Dork Forest that I met my fiance, who loves videogames almost as much as I do. In a world where there is a shortage of truly excellent female comics, and an even greater shortage of female comics who don't just talk about their boyfriends for half an hour you are a delicious rarity.
Also, FF Legends is indeed one of the best videogames ever. Currently I'm about 100 hours in FF-X, with some Tony Hawk on the side. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you how much I loved our act. Hopefully someday you will be doing a show near me and I can come see you in person. There are too few of us hip-geeky chicks out there, we need to stick together. Sincerely, Quinn
And her reply
Hi Quinn,
First. Cool name. Tony Hawk on the side is sweet! I play mostly uprights
cuz having them in the house decreases productivity. Thanks for liking the
set! I have some material about the boyfriend, but since he works at
playstation, it's really just more video game stuff. I hope you beat the
games and don't do anything too drastic to your hair. Mine is "foiled"
anyway. take care, jackie
