Debra Digiovanni: Single, Awkward, Female Page #6
I love it. I love it.
And my friends are always, like,
"What is it with you and
thin guys?"
I realized it. I figured it out.
A thin man, let's be honest,
they are so easy to overcome.
Are you kidding me?
"Kiss me! Ooh!"
They only struggle for
a couple seconds.
Are you kidding me?
And it's cardio if you get
your knees up.
Remember that. It's very nice.
But basically, so I told you I
like guys that look like Jesus
and I like thin guys.
So, basically, a little scruffy,
a little thin.
I'm attracted to homeless men.
I really am. I am.
It's a problem, I'm not
gonna lie to you.
There's always that moment where
I'm, like, "Who is that?
(chuckles) Oh, sh*t, no shoes.
Keep moving!" (screams)
Although I do love a project,
though.
Are you kidding me?
I love a fixer-upper.
Super fun. Just take him home,
brush his hair.
Ooh! "Later, we're gonna
have a bath!" (squeals)
A hose in the backyard.
A hose in the backyard.
It's fun. Do you see?
And now, I mean, I don't really
need to tell you this:
I'm single.
Really? I'm covered with
cat hair.
You do the math.
Really? Single? But...
It doesn't bother me that
I'm single. I'm very busy.
I have a very full life.
Am I crying? Okay, I'm not.
Anyway, no, I'm good.
But it doesn't bother me.
I'm good.
The only thing that bothers
is my mom, do you know
what I mean?
My mom, my old aunts.
'Cause they just want you
to be safe.
They want you to be happy,
you know?
So I feel like at my age,
you just have to have an
answer, right?
Your stock answer that you
give people.
So you go home, you see
your family.
My aunts are, "Debra, don't you
want to meet somebody?"
So I just look them in the face
and I say, "Hey, have you
tried Nutella?
Have you tried Nutella?
That chocolate hazelnut spread?"
Are you kidding me?
Who needs a boyfriend
when there's Nutella?
Are you joking? Oh, my God!
A jar of Nutella, a loaf of
white bread, box of wine?
F***, that's a weekend.
Are you kidding me?
That's a good time.
And I don't want to get you
crazy, but if you put the
Nutella into the microwave
and heat it up, you can
drink it with a straw.
With a straw! No dishes!
That's a, that's a good idea.
You can write that down.
I'm serious. That's nice.
It's nice.
But it's weird, too, because
you know, I used to be
a lot of fun.
As I get older, I've changed
quite a bit, you know?
Like, I'm telling you, I was
wild when I was young.
Like, I had a threesome when I
was in high school.
Okay, actually, it was a couple
making out, and I was guarding
the door.
"Keep going!"
It looked like fun.
It looked like fun.
But the thing is things
really change, you know?
And now I've gotten to the point
family is, everyone is hooked
up, everyone's married.
My little brother just got
married.
He's the second-last person
in our entire family.
I'll give you a moment to think
who the last person is.
But anyway, but my brother,
I love my brother.
I love his wife. She's awesome.
And the reason I'm telling you
family are small-town
people, okay?
They are not racist... they are
small-town people.
Big difference, all right?
Big diff...
My mother... I don't think she's
ever seen as Asian person
up close, do you understand?
She didn't know what to do.
She finds out, she's like,
"She's Asian.
What do we do?"
I'm like, "What do you mean,
Mom?"
She's like, "Do I have to bow?"
I'm like, "No, calm down, Mom.
You're fine, do you know what I
mean?"
She's like, "Should I learn how
to do that or-i-gami?"
I'm like, "Again, a nice idea.
Not necessary," you know.
She's like, "Okay, one more
question.
If they have a baby and it's a
girl, do we have to kill it?"
I'm like, "No. I don't know,
Mom, I don't know."
Look, that's not me.
Call Korea.
I didn't make that up, everyone.
I just pass on the information.
God bless.
But now, I bought it because a
lot of my friends are hooked up.
They come to me a lot of the
times for, you know, like,
advice on the relationship.
And it's very strange, 'cause,
you know, I've been a while,
you know, single.
So, I'm like, all right, you
ask me, I'm gonna tell you,
that's how that works.
So one of my pals, God bless,
she comes to me and she's in a
relationship that is clearly
over, but she's hanging on, you
know what I mean?
Did you ever have one of those
friends?
It's like, it's been three
months.
It's just over, but she won't
let it go, okay?
So she's trying to do all these
things to keep it, you know,
exciting.
She's just hanging on.
So she's telling me, she's like,
"I'm thinking that I'm going to
do, like, a sexy striptease."
I'm like, "Okay, yeah."
Okay, if you're already doing a
striptease at three months,
seriously, that's pretty much
the please-don't-dump-me dance,
isn't it?
Have you done that, ladies?
You're like... (sobbing)
(laughter)
(cheering and applause)
Right?
I don't want to be alone.
I'm serious, the things we do to
keep a man.
Oh, my therapist says one day
I'll be ready to talk about it.
This is something about me that
I realized as you get older,
there's, you know, things that
you know.
I'm not... I'm not a great
girlfriend.
I'm an even worse ex-girlfriend.
You know, I am one of those
girls, seriously, there are men
in the town that I'm from, when
they see me, they're like, "Oh,
f***, there she is."
And they run, they run.
But that's the way I like it, I
gotta tell you.
So if you don't want to be my
boyfriend anymore, you can, uh,
die now, I guess.
Thank you.
We don't need you.
Good-bye.
Right?
And this is another thing, too,
that I know.
I hate to be hung up on.
Do not hang up the phone on me.
Oh, my God.
You hang up the phone, I'm
coming to your house.
That's what happens right there.
You hang up the phone, and now
I'm at your house.
Yeah, with a knife in the middle
of the night, do you understand
what I'm saying?
"I had some things to say.
Do you understand?"
It's not good.
Another thing... I realized this.
This is another one.
This is a note for the men... you
should take this down.
If you want to make a woman
angry, here's something to do.
Tell her to relax.
(laughter)
Are you kidding me?
You tell a woman to take it
easy... holy f***, are you
joking?
I'm gonna flip a f***ing table.
I'm going to lose... (yelling)
I go crazy, right?
Worst thing in the
world to say.
I'd say... you realize this...
and I find this, too... another
thing that I hate... oh!
I hate people that don't hate
people. Don't you...?
(laughter)
Don't you hate those people?
They're like, "I love everyone."
What's wrong? You slow?
What's wrong with you?
Seriously?
Grow up and hate somebody.
Grow up and hate somebody,
Gandhi.
Anyway, seriously?
Another thing... this is a
helpful hint.
Do you hate somebody at the
