[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She seems like a mean girl and very full of herself (not in a good way).  Much prefer her counterpart Amy Poehler. [/quote]

I actually like this aspect of Tina's personality because it's very Gen X. I wouldn't want everyone to be this way (judgmental, cynical) because that would be miserable, but sometimes the swing in the other direction with Millenials is annoying.

I listened to Amy interviewing Tina for her podcast recently, and they had a conversation about "selling out" basically, with Tina taking the attitude that she doesn't like when people who are already very rich come up with these money-making side projects. Like when a successful actor launches a tequila or something. Amy's perspective was "I think you need to get over it, this is the world now." I am not even sure which one I agree with -- I was born in 1980 and the Gen X part of me kind of agrees with Tina and the Millenial part of me kind of agrees with Amy. But I like that there's an argument at all and appreciate that Tina and people like her still make these arguments. Friction is actually good and we need people in society who challenge and criticize and raise moral and ethical issues, even if they are sometimes wrong. Sometimes it is not, actually, "all good."
