Stand-up comedian Lisa Lampanelli recently tweeted a photo of herself with HBO Girls‘ creator and star Lena Dunham.

Accompanying the picture was text calling Dunham her “ni**a” and saying she loves “this beyotch.”

Many Twitter users responded negatively to Lampanelli’s tweet.

@Unb0thered simply replied, “This isn’t funny,” and @EricBAnthony requested, “Please use better judgement when communicating publicly. Thank you!”
