classes direction easier life pick
I think I told my parents I wanted to be a writer, just so they'd kind of think I had some direction in life. It made it easier to pick out classes at college, like, 'Oh, this is writing classes, that's what I'm doing.'
life
I now get to have the life I wanted when I was 18 years old. Now, I'm like, 'I can buy any skateboard I want.'
life low series
I'm glad I'm a comedian. Otherwise, my life would just be a series of undocumented low points.
life until
The exciting part about life is finding out what you can't do, because you don't find out until you try to do something and you're stopped.
aspen success
In 2007, I had on-paper success. I got to go to that Aspen comedy festival, which was pretty exclusive, I guess. Then I did Carson Daly. That was enough validation.
call hardly known people
I'm hardly a known name, but I don't want to go, like, 'Oh, people call me a storyteller comedian, let me just go up and just talk about my day.' I don't want that to happen.
When I lived in Chicago, I didn't like it. It's nice to visit.
calling nerds people stay
I try to stay away from calling people nerds or whatever, because I've got my own fetishes and interests.
acts audience confess family fast generally great honest people stage surprising
I don't want to make it a hard, fast rule, but it's surprising how many 'fun for the whole family' acts are real scumbags. The people that confess they're scumbags on stage are generally really great people. They're more honest with the audience with who they are.
The category I come closest to is 'lumberjack hipster.'
anymore bikes
Nobody mountain bikes anymore - or ever did - in comedy, so I have to go by myself.
comment knows politics stuff theory
My theory on politics is no one really knows how it works, so I choose not to comment on stuff too outside of my league.
great love
I still love a well-crafted joke. Twitter's been great for that.
trying
I know what I like, and I'm not trying to adapt to new things.
