laughing people greatest-love
You have to be able to laugh at yourself. That's what I tell Asian people all the time.
morning school years
I am 39 years old, and I still wake up every morning really excited I don't have to go to school.
people guy ears
It feels weird in our ear holes to hear people worshipping a guy named Ron. We know Rons in our life.
comedy offensive
That's not to say that I don't find anything offensive.
hate writing thinking
I got jury duty ... and I didn't want to go, so my friend said, "You should write something really really racist on the form when you return it. Like, you should put 'I hate chinks'." And I said, "I'm not going to put that on there just to get out of jury duty. I don't want people to think that about me." So instead I wrote, "I love chinks." And who doesn't?
faces teeth brushes
I'm a very ritualistic person. I have to wash my face twice, and on the second wash before I rinse, I brush my teeth, then I rinse, then I floss, then I put on moisturizer. I'm ritualistic. Jewishness is very ritualistic.
talking comedy my-own
Comedy is about talking about my own experience, and I'm a woman, and that's my experience, and just because it isn't yours doesn't invalidate it.
religious worry very-good
I have no religion, but I can't escape being extremely Jewish ethnically - that is, culturally. In other words, I'm not religious, but I worry and I'm neurotic. And I'm very good with money.
white black
I'll be back. I'll be black. I'll be white black.
meaningful crazy trying
In the big picture, life has a gap in it. It just does. You don't go crazy trying to fill it.
jesus believe kids
If my Catholic boyfriend and I ever have a kid, we'll just be honest with it. We'll say that Mommy is one of God's chosen people, and Daddy believes that Jesus is magic!
religious mean thinking
I mean, I talk about being Jewish a lot. It's funny because I do think of myself as Jewish ethnically, but I'm not religious at all. I have no religion.
drama interesting ifs
I'd love to do drama if it was interesting.
people want position
I never want to be in a position where I have to defend my material. It's too subjective. It's for other people to defend or not defend.
