Luisa Omielan: Bitter

After years of being told she's too loud, too crass, and too emotional, Luisa has decided the world doesn't make any sense, and following the rules doesn't work, so she's going to write some new ones.

Luisa says: "Working hard doesn't cut it. The whole game feels rigged. Whatever you do, don't complain about it. Just smile, bitch. Write your gratitude journal and manifest. Everyone in power seems to be either a self-serving, egotistical maniac or have the moral backbone of a flaccid dead fish. Is it any wonder more women are choosing to stay single and not have children?! Not me! Not by choice, anyway. My single childless status is purely thanks to my beautiful cock blocking dog, she's very protective!"

Promoters conclude: "Is she bitter? Of course she is. Are you angry? You should be. Is Bitter a comedy show? Absof*ckinglutely."
