8 Moments That Made Us Fall in Love with Tig Notaro

Unless you've been living under a rock, you're well aware of who Tig Notaro is. I like to explain her as the indie, not so famous version of Ellen Degeneres, because she's been around and out for quite some time, and is a stand up comedian. She may not have a TV show, BUT she does have an HBO special coming up... that's debuting tomorrow, actually!

Anyway, she's pretty much the bee's knees, and if she's just entering your life today, here are some of her greatest moments, which can hopefully provide you with a low-down on who Tig is as a comedian, while also reving you up for her sure-to-be hilarious special, Boyish Girl Interrupted.

1. Commenting on what performing topless actually means.

2. Why she's not into Twitter.

3. Tig's idea of promotion.

4. Her favorite way to fuck with people.

5. Her "Ask A Grown Women" bit for Rookie Mag (ya, she's friends with Tavi).

6. When Tig shut down a technician on beauty standards while undergoing cancer treatment.

7. Making her super cool comedy friends laugh as she makes jokes about other comedy friends.

8. The texts with her now fiancee that solidified their romance.
