Don't hate Melinda Hill because she's cute as a button. Hate her because she's freakin' funny, and her life is a bit of wreck. Her one-woman show is called The Accidental Bisexual & Other Stories. Hill can be seen on the upcoming Nick Swardson's Pretend Time on Comedy Central.

The lesbian and I slipped on the pies and accidentally fell into the scissors position. True story.Â I was also inspired by the song "I Kissed a Girl and I Liked It But When I Had to Touch Her Vagina I Didn't Know What To Do."
