      Seems pretty staged, the whole thing. Not saying it isn’t funny. I think she knew it was an act, though. I’m American, I’ve never heard of either of these women, and I knew it was satire about 10 seconds in. I’m also sort of Asperger’s-ey so I can easily fall for this. So I’m pretty sure the professor was just going along with the bit.
