I just didn’t want to be pigeonholed as an 'ethnic comic' or an 'Asian comic.' I just wanted to be on the same playing field as everyone else.
When I'm dating someone, I have a list called my 'Oh No Nos.' If a woman commits a Oh No No, it can end the relationship. Not loving '90s R&B music is #3 on the Oh No Nos list. Girl don't even know who Ginuwine is.
I have no interest in art. Let me clarify — I have no interest in non-nude images.
If it's possible, I binge. There are other shows, like 'The Americans' and 'Game of Thrones,' I watch and have to wait a week.
Most people would say 'the deets', but I say 'the tails'. Just another example of innovation.
Yeah, I've been a little down. Totally natural. I'm getting a divorce, but now I'm ready to pull myself up by some G-strings.
Instead of yelling your opinion, or telling people to shut up, or engaging in this clickbait-internet culture, have a dialogue with someone and ask people questions and listen to what they have to say.
This is one of my favorite pick up strategies: I'm constantly giving women my keys. So far, none of them have shown up. Matter of time. And I've been robbed twice.
I have never taken the high road, but I tell other people to 'cause then there's more room for me on the low road.
I have a couple of 'doing caps' in my wallet. That's what I call condoms.
I like the brand Band of Outsiders. Their suits are cut really slim, for smaller framed gentlemen.
I guess my music taste is pretty predictable: I like new indie rock stuff, older stuff.
Being a rapper is about being cool, but being a comedian, you're not supposed to be the coolest guy.
I'm the kind of person, if I see something, like a funny video, I want to share it. With Twitter and Tumblr you can do that on a mass scale, and people get to know your personality.
