To celebrate the goddess of comedy that’s brought us everything from “That’s so fetch,” to Bossypants, we present thirty of our favorite Tina Fey truisms.

Just when you thought it was safe to stop weeping from the 30 Rock finale… NBC has released a video of Tina Fey’s co-workers saying really nice things about their fearless leader. It’s moving, bittersweet and ultimately worth re-opening the 30 Rock portion of your heart for three minutes just for it to shatter again.
30 Rock has always been a finely tuned joke trebuchet. Much in the same way people from Seattle say “Don’t like the weather? Wait 20 minutes,” longtime viewers of 30 Rock could also assure themselves “didn’t like that last one-liner? Wait 20 seconds.” But thankfully, human beings usually require a little more from their art…otherwise networks would just air a slowly scrolling list of “yo mama” jokes in 30 minute increments (don’t get any ideas, CBS).
TGS has been cancelled and there is only one woman who can un-cancel it! In a new clip from tonight’s episode of 30 Rock , Liz gives an impassioned, Patton-esque speech to her co-workers to have them join her in the fight to save the show. Though we’d like to see General Patton give a speech that begins with “listen up jagweeds” and ends in “and that little boy’s name was Marshall Mathers.”
