"Martin can shift from deadpan to

"Chelsea Martin is a peach cobbler
your friend made but accidentally left cooling too long what with
the dance party inside the kitchen, and then it started to hail,
and everybody forgot about the peach cobbler and went home, but then
you snuck back into your friend's house at some awful hour of the
morning that probably shouldn't even exist, and you stole that peach
cobbler and ate it and you've never really had anything like it since,
though you will sometimes jitter-step with your hands in your pockets
or give a joke sympathy chuckles and lightly brush your hair away
from your face so people can see your eyes." - Mike Young, iChat
"Chelsea Martin has unwavering
eyes, wide-open ears, and a pitch-perfect voice." - John Mader,
The Rumpus
"Chelsea Martin is cross-eyed,
with weird-looking ears and a voice that sounds almost certainly
inhuman" - James Yeh, Facebook
"I love Chelsea Martin." -
