Let's watch this one again, and always remember [insert any bad thing here]: "Ain't nobody got time for that!"

h/t to Terry!

We're not supposed to be laughing at her, are we? She's perfect - she may not conform to the standards of speaking you get from the nightly news, but she's not a newscaster. And she's right - who has time for that? Not me, not her, not anyone.

tl;dr: not mock-worthy.

Watched it again - she's a fabulous storyteller with incredible storytelling skills. Not everyone has that.

@2, she struck me as sharper than dead behind the eyes blond newscaster. Seattle hates people who are honest and live out loud. Please conform, and be passive agressive.

I didn't realize we were supposed to be mocking her. I think she seems like such a sweet, interesting lady! The kind of person you want to sit down with and hear all about her life.

I LOOOOOVE Sweet Brown! We've been saying "ain't nobody got time for that!" at our house for months now.
Sweet Brown rules.

@1 and 6... where the heck have I been? This is the first time I've seen this. This is great.

Makes me wonder if she's seen it, and if she loves it. :)
