insecure childhood weight
Comics who grew up surviving their childhood by being able to be the first one to make the joke about their weight or their hairy arms - like me - whatever they're insecure about, whatever they're apologizing for, that becomes their strength.
world mentality
I just don't let that mentality be a part of my world.
angle taboo ifs
Nothing is taboo if you have an angle on it.
interesting shells angle
Nothing is taboo if you have an angle on it. That said, critiquing women's human shells isn't my thang. Though there's probably something funny or interesting to be said about those who do it, and what that comes from.
knowing degrees looks
I always look at myself knowing that I will have a certain degree of cognitive distortion.
thinking light darkness
I do enjoy and feel compelled to talk about things that are taboo. One, because I think I'm a troublemaker inside, if someone says, "Don't say that," it's all I want to say. And also, something I learned in therapy ... which is darkness can't exist in the light, and then that made me think of something that Mr. Rogers said, which is, "If it's mentionable, it's manageable."
conceited men doors
I buy water at the liquor store across the street from where I live. So I'm walking into the door, and standing, loitering, outside the door is a man. And I walk by him to go in, and he says, I want pussy! Now, I don't want to seem conceited or anything, but he was talking about me!
summer firsts comedy
The first time I did stand-up was the summer I was 17.
thinking comedy comic
You know, I think whatever a comic talks about onstage is all they talk about offstage.
funny pain people
Look at the people who are kind of the funniest cultures, they're the cultures of the people who have been the most oppressed, black people and Jews. Not that they're the only funny people, but culturally, it comes from the pain, you know?
scientology
Scientology is weird because it's new.
funny comedy not-afraid
I'll tell you why we make fun of midgets: We're not afraid of them.
funny niece sunday
I can't wait till Sunday, I'm gonna see my favorite niece and my other niece...
girl growing-up waiting
Don't tell girls they can be anything they want when they grow up. Because it would have never occurred to them that they couldn't. It's like saying, 'Hey, when you get in the shower, I'm not gonna read your diary.' 'Wait--are you gonna read my diary?' 'No! I said I'm not gonna read your diary. Go take a shower!'
