Broad City's Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer don't fuck with full-blown impersonations. Instead they're fans of micro-impressions. "You can have an impersonation of someone and you get it in a second," Glazer told David Letterman. "You're like, 'I got it,' but then you have to sit through the whole spiel. Micro-impressions are just impressions in an instant, the essence of the person you're trying to impersonate."

To show Letterman what she meant Glazer did a hilarious micro-impression of Nicki Minaj at a diner. Jacobson then followed her up with a great one-sound impression of Rose from Titanic.

Watch the segment above and leave behind your gratuitous impersonations.
