In California, the lines on the road are just a suggestion. They're in the left lane with the left indicator on, so naturally it's time to turn right! Are you kidding me? In your Prius? I know, you're saving the Earth by trying to kill the people!
I remember for my 18th birthday, I was going to get a tattoo, and I made the mistake of thinking I was a man and telling my father, and he was like, 'Oh yeah? You better tattoo a new address on your arm, because you're not living here!' And that was the end of that discussion.
I do stupid stuff like that: I'll call my wife from the road, send her pictures of glaciers.
I took a Ferrari under the 405 freeway. We took rent-a-cars through the desert. That was fun.
What if God's a woman? Not only am I going to hell, I'll never know why!
I talk a lot about women in my act, 'cause let's face it -- if I was hungry, I would talk about food.
When I walked in to read with Edie Falco, it was nice, because I auditioned in New York, and it was very quick. You walk in, there's Edie, the producers, the director, and a camera. I read three scenes, and it was done.
When I meet people after stand-up shows, they'll bring their cars.
