I don't think comedy comes from hotbeds of doing shtick. I think it usually comes from some kind of childhood humiliation or darkness.

I was raped by a doctor. Which is, you know, so bittersweet for a Jewish girl.

If I have kids, I'll adopt.

I didn't feel so different until maybe, like, around third grade. Kids started blaming me for my people killing Jesus.

Being with friends felt like a burden. I remember just sobbing.

Mommy is one of the chosen people … and daddy believes that Jesus is magic!

Jews are the most liberal, scrappy, civil-rightsy people there are.
