I don't just want to upset people and shock people by saying something really outrageous.

To be honest, after all the crap that happened with 'Summer Heights High,' I was like, 'I'm not going to write anything controversial or edgy ever again; I just can't handle the blame.'

I just do what I think is funny and what's exciting to me.

I have a massive guilt thing about money.

It takes me ages to write stuff.

I was terrible student. I was capable, but I never like being told what to do, so I was always in the bottom class at school. In Australia, a lot of students study to the end of year 10, but don't go on to the final year, and I was asked to leave the school because they just thought I wasn't performing well enough. I used to sneak off to play piano, and defy the rules of the school.

I'm definitely attracted to the idea of people that have these big aspirations that the audience know might never happen, but they're lost in them.
