I Hate All Sidekicks.

Yeah, There Were A Few Years In The Early Nineties Where I Really Began To Hate What Was Valued As Funny And Just Sort Of What Was Valued In Stand-up, Period.

What I Was Trying To Say In That Bit, Without Saying It Out Loud, Is That There Were Things - You're Right, Everything Is Very Politicized These Days, Literally Down To What Kind Of Coffee You Drink - That I Used To Fight With People About. And By The Way, Not Just People Like Republicans And Christians, But Liberal Friends Of Mine And Very Radical Left-wing Types, And Alternative, Indie Types.

I Identify Myself As A Stand-up First. Even Though Lately There's Been An Explosion Of Acting On My Schedule.

I've Hung Out In The Writer's Room A Few Times, But The Fact Is We've Got Such A Good Writing Staff, I Don't Want To Get My Peanut Butter Fingerprints On Anything.

A Lot Of Nerds Aren't Aware They're Nerds. A Geek Has Thrown His Hands Up To The Universe And Gone, 'i Speak Klingon - Who Am I Fooling? You Win! I'm Just Gonna Openly Like What I Like.' Geeks Tend To Be A Little Happier With Themselves.
