    Idk if it was accidental but the Warefare Whitneys saying "she's a copy right LIABILITY" and Riva hitting back with "I believe you're the copyright CULPABILITY" is such a fire line

      Culpability: responsibility for a fault or wrong; blame.

      Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good, but sometimes you're just both in the same scene😁 I have a level of confidence sufficient to state it as fact that saying culpability was an accident, it's just that they're at least surrounded by (I don't know if they also did/do it) so much improv excellence that even second-hand instincts were enough to bleed it effortlessly into the character acting

      ​​​​@@micahnewby7964Tf is that supposed to mean ? Are you seriously saying that the only reason she did that was thanks to who she's surrounded by ? Like she's not capable of making jokes by herself ?
      Siobhan is an extremely intelligent person, that was definitely both on purpose and instinctive/improv.
      She's the most underrated of the group because she's often the least loud, and very often her jokes get drowned in the chaos, but if you *actually* pay attention to D20 series, Siobhan drops banger lines much more often than she's being given credit for.
      "Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good." Seriously do you not realize what you're saying or did you seriously just say that she's not good ??
      I loathe the casually insulting energy you've wedged into your comment with the emoji juxtaposed to gratuitous insults.

      ​​@@math9172 and I loathe people putting 💩 in my mouth that I didn't say, so there's that. Do better. Stop projecting an entire character assessment (that isn't even yours) based off *one* thing that happened in *one* episode of a decades long career
      Especially in something like improv, sometimes the strength is in the team, not because one person sucks, but......wait for it..... *BECAUSE THEY'RE A F****** *TEAM!!* There's a reason improv _troupes_ are more prevalent than improv _one person shows_
      I've been watching improv since before Whose Line was hosted by Drew Carey so yes, *sometimes* the exact perfect thing to say doesn't come out every single time. I could even be wrong about whether she meant to say it or not (though for the record people confident in what they're about to say don't often preceed it with "uuuhhh", so maybe I'm right about the nature of improv comedy?), but again that would have *nothing* to do with what I think of *her.* If *you* lack the maturity to make that distinction, don't take it out on me
      All that *"only* reason" BS *YOU'RE* spewing? Keep that toxic 💩 aaaaalll the way away from me, because I've got nothing to do with it; that's all you and I endorse or own *none* of it

    Used this three weeks ago when I had to call a customer to ask him to pay his outstanding bill, and he instantly (I mean INSTANTLY) began swearing at me because my phone call had woken him up. He started claiming he was a "platinum customer" (doesn't exist) and that he had a credit account (he had used the entire balance).
    I asked him if he'd like to speak with a manager, and when he refused I got his payment information, and said "Excellent, thank you. Please hold." And left him on the line stewing for fifteen minutes.

Also the title implies that she is yelling please hold for 5 minutes, or at least it would if you spelt minutes right, a minuet is a type of dance, but it's not even a 5 min clip and I think she said it maybe like 5 times? So maybe you meant 5 times and not "minuets".

      Thank you for pointing out the spelling mistake, usually when I’m clipping these it’s mostly to send them to one of my friends without a time limit so I tend to miss things like that. I feel like the clip is close enough to 5 minutes to qualify, and I think the title conveys the vibe I wanted, but I do appreciate it :]
