I crashed my boyfriend’s birthday when I was 12 years old. He didn’t invite me and so I showed up.

In this self-deprecating anecdote, Fisher frames childhood “romance” as impulsive, comic, and a little brazen: a 12-year-old who treats a lack of invitation not as a boundary but as a challenge. The humor comes from the mismatch between adult relationship language (“boyfriend”) and the childish reality of a crush, plus the blunt logic—she wanted to be included, so she simply appeared. Read more broadly, the line plays into a public persona of boldness and mischievous confidence, suggesting an early tendency toward assertive social risk-taking and an unwillingness to be sidelined, even when etiquette says otherwise.
