I like Cilantro, but you don't have to.

I'd rather send out a mass email then hang posters all over the place

I had temping jobs also. I liked the flexibility. There was no asking for time off; you just didn't work.

I did end up doing substitute teaching, but there's not a lot of teaching involved in that.

Anyone who bombs is my friend.

I don't know any astronauts. There are a lot of people who say they want to be comedians.

I think people have this "It can't hurt to ask" mentality, which is true on some level. I get comics like, "Hey, will you look at these videos of me on MySpace?" I was like, "Well, who's gonna benefit from that? What if I don't like you?" No, I'm gonna write to a stranger and say, "Hi. You like me, and I don't like you. And now I feel bad when I didn't need to feel bad, because you put me on the spot." Or like, "Can I open for you?" Well, I've never seen you work, so no. I certainly made awkward mistakes when I was starting out, and they're just trying to have a career.
