Lena Dunham: Why's Everybody Always Picking On Me?!

by at . Comments

Even if you watch Girls online with you finger on the pause button so you can jot down all of Hannah's profound observations about relationships, gender equality, and dessert, you probably occasionally find Lena Dunham obnoxious.

She's naked all the time for seemingly no reason; she complains constantly despite being born into a life of obscene wealth and privilege; and she once called Amanda Bynes a "genius."

There's a lot not to like...and Lena is apparently very aware of that:

"I totally leave room for people to be irritated by me," Dunham said in a recent interview with The Daily Beast. "They were irritated by me from 2nd through 12th grade. I know the feeling dearly."

"I said to my boyfriend once at a very low moment, 'This isn't that different from 2nd grade! People have always been trying to pick on me! Always!"

Wow. All this time we thought Lena was intentionally trolling the world so that she could position herself as the victim whenever anyone criticized her. How else to explain the green hair and other ridiculous life choices?

Now we see that it wasn't intentional and Lena is just naturally self-obsessed and annoying. We were right about the positioning herself as the victim, though. That's totally her jam.

Lena Dunham Quotes

My mother and I have a massive fight when I choose to wear a banana-printed belly shirt and pink leggings to the Vatican.

I am 20 years old and hate myself. My hair, my face, the curve of my stomach. The way my voice comes out wavering and my poems come out maudlin.
