Comic Aparna Nancherla on Her Days as a Magazine Intern
Briefly

"I've never been fully on board with my face. I know that's about as revelatory a statement from a woman in this world as saying 'Sorry! Totally my mistake!' when there's a global recession."
"We would get letters from this woman named Nancy S. She would send in these irate restaurant reviews, handwritten letters, like, 'I had a very bad experience with this waitress and did not leave a tip.' I wasn't sure what her end game was."
