My husband and I were talking about Sarah Huckabee Sanders

and how she would be a sweet target for an SNL parody. The tricky part is to resist body-shaming of this large woman. My first thought--and the one SNL went with--was to put a dark wig on the heavy female cast member, but then it occurred to me that it would be much more devastating to use the slim dark-haired cast member for SHS. You could really rip her to shreds without being mean about her physical appearance (and she does look like Marie Osmond) or trying to ignore an obvious physical characteristic. I wish people would consult me before they put stuff on TV.

Gap-toothed was she, it is no lie to say.
Upon an ambler easily she sat,
Well wimpled, aye, and over all a hat
As broad as is a buckler or a targe;
A rug was tucked around her buttocks large,
And on her feet a pair of sharpened spurs. (Wife of Bath)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A summoner was with us in that place,
Who had a fiery-red, cherubic face,
For eczema he had; his eyes were narrow
As hot he was, and lecherous, as a sparrow;
With black and scabby brows and scanty beard;
He had a face that little children feared.
There was no mercury, sulphur, or litharge,
No borax, ceruse, tartar, could discharge,
Nor ointment that could cleanse enough, or bite,
To free him of his boils and pimples white,
Nor of the bosses resting on his cheeks. (Summoner)
