The infamous “She” of the “That’s What She Said” jokes has released a new tell-all book making shocking claims about the joke’s validity.
“No, I did not say that,” She [her real name is totally irrelevant] writes on the book’s cover and throughout the nine-hundred page point-by-point refutation of things She’s never said. “The joke takes a normal situation and makes it uncomfortable and juvenile for the sake of comedy. But jokes, like condoms, have a shelf life.”
For a closer look at life in the Slander Lane, we sat down with the eponymous She.
Magazine: It’s been a busy couple of years for you! Or so we hear…
She: Mostly likely I didn’t say anything about that. Please just start the interview.
Magazine: It says in your book that you are not actually the original “She.” Can you explain this?
She: When the joke started with Wayne’s World in the eighties it was in reference to my mother, who actually was a prostitute. After she gave birth to my twin sister and me, she cleaned up her act and loaned her name instead to the newly launched “Yo Mama” line. But being at the center of a pervasive joke that just won’t quit no matter how old it becomes was different with two kids to take care of, and she ended up taking her own life in an attempt to stop the jokes. Truly a tragic end.
Magazine: But the joke just wouldn’t go into the grave, would it? It kept coming in and out and in and out.
She: Right, my sister got pregnant in high school so the “Yo Mama” joke passed on to her in its modernized “Your Mom” form, e.g.”That’s the sound Your Mom made last night,” etc. I got left with “That’s What She Said.” There was a falloff in interest for both jokes around the turn of the millennium, so it wasn’t so bad for awhile. But then The Office happened.
