Ayo Edebiri Settles Your Petty Disputes
Well this is delightful: Vanity Fair set up Ayo Edebiri with a selection of personal beefs and several gavels (and maybe there’s a meat tenderizer in there, I don’t know), she listened to both sides of each argument, and then passed judgment. Listen until at least the second case before you pass judgment on watching the whole thing (verdict: you should)…it involves someone stealing a french fry from a room service tray.
I don’t know how to tell you this…but your father has murdered people before. There are bodies in the ground. ‘I don’t know what she’s so upset about. It’s a victimless crime. Nobody’s gonna miss that fry. Nobody’s gonna miss THAT KID!’

"Delightful" is absolutely the word for her...I was only sort of aware of her before watching this video but then went down a rabbit hole watching more interviews and bits with her, she has amazing presence.
That was very good - thank you!
BUT!
The pause button was down throughout. Don't these people know how tape recorders work?
Totally there with you, and encouraging us all to live a life where we can ABSTAIN from calling out the continuity errors (I try, and fail)
(Says the person who has comments recorded on this very blog pointing out caomoji and emoji are different things. ಠ_ಠ)
I appreciate that she's dressing from the David Byrne School of Wide Shoulders.

This is the name that'll be displayed next to comments you make on kottke.org; your email will not be displayed publicly. I'd encourage you to use your real name (or at least your first name and last initial) but you can also pick something that you go by when you participate in communities online. Choose something durable and reasonably unique (not "Me" or "anon"). Please don't change this often. No impersonation.
Note: I'm letting folks change their display names because the membership service that kottke.org uses collects full names and I thought some people might not want their names displayed publicly here. If it gets abused, I might disable this feature.
If you feel like this comment goes against the grain of the community guidelines or is otherwise inappropriate, please let me know and I will take a look at it.
