Other Voices, Other Geniuses: Charlotte Barnett
nice boobs, good at flattery
I met Charlotte Barnett when we were both interns at a comedy video company that now, I believe, makes ads? I think that’s how we met? I woke up one day and I knew Charlotte, and my life is so much better for it. She’s a ballerina, and a terrific writer.
Yes, a beautiful funny woman who isn’t annoying. If you’re not in love, what’s wrong with you? She has a boyfriend, be cool.
