asking asks
Women don't ask to be raped, but there are some that are asking to be motorboated
flu speak chemicals
I can only speak from my own experience, and I would say that the depression I experienced feels like a chemical change. When it came over me, when it comes over me, it feels like it's coming over me like a flu.
funny humor wrestling
I commend you on all you've done for PETA, wrestling the one-eyed trouser snake with your bare hands, gently cuddling it in your arms, and nurturing it back to health.
jesus kids people
I didn't feel so different until maybe, like, around third grade. Kids started blaming me for my people killing Jesus.
way proud born-this-way
I am Jewish and proud of this culturally and ethnically - the ways in which I was born this way and am happy with whom I am.
skills people black
Jews, black people - any people who are hated or who have suffered, either as individuals or as a people - use humour. It is a survival skill.
song heartache want
All comics want to be musicians. There's a part of me that wants to be a serious musician. I love songs about heartache and heartbreak.
father forgive-me heaven
You can be Hitler and go to confession and say forgive me, Father, I killed six million Jews, and the priest would just be like no problem. Say 10 Heil Marys. And Hitler goes to heaven.
inspiration cogs hey
What makes Disney movies and Pixar movies always so good, hey take time and they're constantly honing, and tweaking, and rejiggering things, and taking influences from every cog, including myself, that can help. Any place where there can be inspiration. They make every moment very layered and very rich.
black-and-white feelings would-be
Relations between black and white would be greatly improved if we were more accepting of our fears and our feelings and more vocal about it.
doe sides sad-music
I have lows, you know, everybody does ... but I kind of know how to handle it. I like to let myself wallow in it. I enforce it with terribly sad music, and it kind of pushes me through to the other side eventually, and I always know it's going to pass.
home description accurate
That still feels like the most accurate description - I felt homesick, but I was home.
fun people brain
I dress normal because I want people to treat me regular. And their brains explode. It's really fun.
thinking opposites ignorant
I tend to be more arrogant on stage. Far more ignorant. I sometimes say what I think and sometimes say the opposite of what I think and the lines get blurred, but I can only hope that some kind of absolute power transcends.
