I never set out to do a sketch show.
From Demetri Martin
I think a lot of stuff I find funny is from day dreaming.
I saw a transvestite wearing a T-shirt that said 'Guess'.
Stand up is really fun because if I think of a joke or a funny idea, then I can just go and tell some people and if they laugh, they laugh right away.
Stand-up is like a row boat: it's fun and romantic when you're choosing to do it. But if you have no other choice than to be in a row boat it's not as enjoyable; that's survival.
And of course I didn't make any money from stand up for years, so I had temp jobs. That was the way I made money.
I just know keeping track of what I'm doing and where I'm going is important to me.
I've often liked a girl, made her laugh, and thought she liked me, and then found out that she didn't like me that way. I've definitely done time in the friend zone.
It feels like every day or two, people on Twitter and the Internet are outraged about something.
I'd love to win trophies, be in movies, have a body of work I'm proud of and find a way to enjoy it along the way. Success is probably a more of a complicated thing than that.
