I think for a lot of people, bowling is sort of a joke. But I love it, and it means a lot to me, so any chance to help promote it or celebrate it or not make the hackiest jokes - 'Bowlers are like plumbers and they wear the craziest shirts!' - I'm way into.

If you wish to achieve any success in this life, do your best to surround yourself with an orgy of good choices.

The difference being that a nerd would wear a D&D shirt because he loves D&D while a hipster would wear a D&D shirt because it's ridiculous that he is wearing a D&D shirt.

The nerdist movement is less about consumers; there is a large contingent that are creative nerdists instead of consumers.

With stand-up, there's a little bit of an exaggerated reality because things have to be manipulated to create comedy, to create jokes.
