Patti Harrison has a plan for survival. It's absurd.
For a while there, Patti Harrison got used to strangers screaming in her face.
People would approach her on the sidewalk, recognizing her from the Netflix sketch comedy series 'I Think You Should Leave' and yelling things like, 'I'm not popular at all?' — the way her character does in a 2019 episode after her co-workers refuse to laugh at her jokes about their new office printer. As the slighted co-worker, Harrison projects the distress of someone experiencing actual injustice. Her committed performance heightens the absurdity of the situation, cementing the sketch — and her whiny line delivery in it — as one of the show's most memorable.
