Sometimes you watch comedians and feel like they're jerking off in front of you, but they want you to see how big it is.

I am a comedian and I started in stand-up when I was 22.

I know that I don't like being teased.

I think the main thing that affected my comedy was that my dad slept in a nightgown for most of my childhood. And it was just very funny every single night and made me realize that laughter is fun and nightgowns are cool.

When I would go on stage I would start to feel that the eyes that watching me weren't kind. And it took me a while to realize that those eyes were my own eyes.

I just left wishing that it was longer because I enjoyed it so thoroughly.

TV can be fairly rigid. I've done enough Network TV to know that it's fun but if I have to go somewhere every day maybe it's not the most satisfying [job].
