Amy Schumer, queen of the Internet, is back this week with a new sketch that explains how the universe really works. Bill Nye takes the stage to explain that while scientists once thought the universe was a cosmic network of energy and matter, they now know that the Universe is a series of helpful signs on how to live your life for "white women in their 20s."
"So I was texting while I was driving, and I ended up a wrong turn that took me directly past a vitamin shop," a woman tells her friend in a frozen yogurt shop. "And I was just like, this is totally the universe telling me I should be taking calcium."
"Omigod!" said the friend. "Universe."
The accuracy is painful. Even the Broad City gals know when the universe is dropping hints—Abbi and Ilana talk about how they just wanna "put stuff out" to the universe, and if it's meant to be it will "manifest itself."
Bill Nye says the universe is a "dreamboard on which women pin their wishes," effectively absolving them of any real need to take responsibility for their lives, and giving them free range to keep doing whatever they want to.
Like Amy, who realizes the universe is telling her to keep "fucking her married boss" when she sees someone in yoga with a shirt that says "Chill." A totally, totally, very clear sign.
