They always say some women like to fix people. I don't like to fix people, but you like a challenge.
Sometimes the mistake I see people make is thinking that they're always going to be up, and I think that's impossible for anyone.
I like to be nice. I want to be a hero. I want to save people. Or just kill zombies, because they deserve it, because they're already dead and they can't feel it. They don't have feelings.
I don't know if I was always an open person, but I think stand-up comics specifically have this way of running towards embarrassing things - whereas regular people tend to run away - because the embarrassing story is always going to be the really funny story.
I'm just going to be the best version of me that I could possibly be and be as funny as I possibly can. I've just got to be myself and hopefully people will find me. And my audience did find me.
No one wants to hear about how awesome you were; people want to hear about the time you blew it. So I think the longer you do stand-up, the more comfortable you are. You stop wanting to hide your foibles and instead want to show who you are.
TV always wants more people to be watching.
I want to point out, that this is not my fault that everyone's afraid of me, because I did not kill a couple people the other day.
When I was young I thought, 'Yeah, people don't see, they're not recognizing how funny I am, and how talented I am'. And the guys that mentored me were like, 'You just have to keep getting up'. And I look back and they were right. They were all right.
People challenge my nerd cred all the time. I just show them the photo of me winning my middle-school science fair, wearing my Casio calculator watch and eyeglasses so big they look like they can see the future.
You know, I read graphic novels but not encyclopedically.
She's got that life where you're able to pick your husband and pick your baby time, so good for her.
What am I wearing? Hmmm, I'd love to tell you something slinky and sexy, but usually it's an old T-shirt.
You, too, could easily look like that if you had a squad of mad geeks fussing over you with retouching software.
