thank you. Follow up question, what is the least funniest career? I like to have options.

What advice can you give an aspiring comedy writer who thinks that maybe she started too late and maybe she's not that funny?

TRASH CANS. The recycling ones that were set out were contaminated beyond belief and that's just the people who actually used them instead of just throwing it on the ground.

I think in the future, I'd like to see the festival be A LOT more sustainable. Plastic straws, plastic forks, plastic on plastic on plastic is what I saw this weekend. Maybe some helpful signs by the recycling cans saying what can and cannot go in there? Or have some volunteers leading a green initiative. Maybe a stronger incentive than just "bring us a bag of trash" to the Bodega and we'll give you a bottle. Plus, those bags were so contaminated from what I saw, I don't even know who's going to take them. SO WASTEFUL.

Added notes: Just to echo everyone else's thoughts on the water stations, I completely agree. The first water station I went to (by the ferry entrance, near the empanadas truck) had absolutely foul tasting water - like tar level taste. I knew it was the spout because another water station had perfectly fine tasting water. Also, I'm not even sure what those employees were supposed to do at the stations. They weren't calling people up when spouts were emptying or helping to alleviate the flow or anything. Most of the time, I saw them chatting with others or on their cellphones - most of them weren't even watching the stations at all.

One more point - ferry lines were incredibly long but that wasn't too much of a problem. It went by quickly and one day I saw WHY it went by quickly. Staff would take one group through, not check their bags, and then let another group go and check THOSE bags. Point being though - they didn't check every bag and just waved groups through even when the metal detectors were set off. And then on the day of the evac, I didn't know exactly when to get to the ferries. There was no communication when shuttles or ferries would be running. Just gates opening. I wanted to see noname at 6:45 but didn't make it because of the ridiculous line that had formed.
