Ali Wong is 42, divorced and thriving. Apart from her solo-and-fabulous status, her wit about these aspects of her life places her in a class of her own. I became obsessed with Wong after seeing her in the drama series Beef and in her rom-com Always Be My Maybe (which she also produced and wrote), but it wasnt until I dove into her stand-up specials on Netflix that I realized comedy is her first and actual claim to fame.

Wongs shows were not what I expected, but they were everything I needed without knowing it. Onstage, shes unapologetically vulgar and crass, long the purview of many a female comedian, yet she simultaneously manages to bring an air of sophistication to her dick jokes.

Through it all, her ability to highlight and explore the most unsavory parts of dating, marriage and motherhood is revolutionary because she says the things were thinking in the most colorful, painfully hilarious way possible. Her Netflix specials span her 2016 debut, Baby Cobra, through her latest, Single Lady, released on Oct. 8, in which she gets real about the distinct stages of womanhood.

So, in honor of Wongs continuous evolution, I rounded up her most savage lines (with very little context, so youre tempted to watch the new special and treat yourself to a little laughter), from her happily-married-with-new-baby-stage to her radiant divorce era.
