People are gonna think that MTV censored me, and they really didn't. I really wanted to try to make a show that didn't rely on offensive, edgy material because I think it was an exercise in trying to write without that. Because I see that as a crutch sometimes and I want to know that I can do something funny and worthwhile without that. And also make a show that my parents would like and that kids could watch with their parents.

I see young people being dismissed for supposedly wanting only "stupid" and "easy" material, or that they don't have an attention span longer than three minutes. I disagree with all those statements; I just think they aren't true. I'm saying that our generation wants stuff that is substantial and challenging, as well as thoughtful and endearing. Well, I don't know if I'm doing that, but I'm trying.

The strange thing with Wikipedia is that the first article that ever gets written about you will define your Wikipedia page forever.

My work is trying to at least define myself on my own terms, and then if other people enjoy things that's a lovely addition.

Once a week, I like to slip into a deep existential depression where I lose all my sense of oneness and self-worth.

I got a safe full of cherries 'cause I pop it and lock it.

I work really hard on the shows and I think the shows speak for themselves. I don't want to construct the show to prove something.
