Just because you saw a vampire doesn't mean that a snowman or a Loch Ness Monster also exists.

Im from a family of doctors, and I think they really wanted me to be a doctor. I even sort of assumed I would be a doctor.

I was extremely shy and had a terrible fear of public speaking. But I had fallen in love with stand-up.

I approximated the Black Friday experience at home by hurling myself into a wall a number of times and then ordering online.

I thought of America as this crazy, happy, exciting place where everybody's rich and there's stuff everywhere. Compared to Pakistan, it's not untrue.

My stories take three or four months to fix, and it's not magical of a process. Ultimately it's a boring, difficult process. I write everything out, and then the parts I think are funny I put in bold. Then I go perform it. Then the parts that aren't funny, I unbold them.

I think, you know, a lot of the business of comedy is taking your personal experiences and making them relatable to other people.
