stuff littles scientology
I'm doing stuff on Kaballah and Scientology and a little bit more racial stuff, for good measure.
scientology
Scientology is weird because it's new.
angle comics joke though watch
I like my messiness on stage, though I watch comics who come at a joke from every angle and I think, 'Yeah! That's how it's done!' But for me it's the audience. If I feel connected to them, I have so much fun, and if not, it stinks.
crazy funny prices
This is crazy Donald. When I see the prices at the mall, I just want to vomit.
bunch comics eat life living ready sets three wake york
I'm doing a lot of stand-up, but not like when you're living in New York and you can do three sets a night and it's your life, and you sleep all day and you wake up and you eat with a bunch of other comics and then get ready for the night.
defend
I never defend my material. Comedy is subjective.
I'm not the marrying type, but I always want to be with someone who is a fan.
funny humorous interests planning sounds trying
Oh, this sounds so obnoxious, ... I'm not planning anything out. I'm just trying to be funny. I don't think any of it's particularly deep. It's just what interests me.
god
What are the chances there is a God, really?
coke courtney crazy curious love violent
You got it, doll, I was curious to see which Courtney Love was going to show up: the smeared-lipstick crazy coke whore or the violent smeared-lipstick crazy coke whore.
camp lots
As a kid, I was terrified. I was a bed wetter, and I had to go to sleepaway camp every summer, which was humiliating and terrifying. I had lots of insecurities and scaredness.
american-comedian high local nightclubs school senior tried year
And then in my senior year of high school, I tried to go on at local nightclubs in New Hampshire, or I'd go on at school assemblies.
bullies comics dark humorous laugh laughter numb periods sad scared survival
I always want to laugh at the sad stuff. You don't need to laugh at the other stuff. I'm not numb to these things. I still go into really dark periods about Sept. 11. I think it's kind of like bullies. Bullies are just scared and thin-skinned, so they have to become bullies as a kind of survival tactic. I think comics are that way, too.
common
but it's not as common as you would think.
