I have a lot of fights coming up, so I'll put it on my to-do list.
Hannah, Lena Dunham, has this line where she says, anything bad you could say about me, I've said to myself ten times within the last hour already.
And so I think that a lot of my humor is kind of getting to the joke first before anyone else can because I'm so scared of someone saying,
like making fun of me.
Like I have this quote above my bed, my bed that Manny who's out there painted for me.
And it's, it's a quote, I forget who said it, but it says, if you slip on a banana peel, if you slip on a banana peel, people will laugh at you.
But if you tell people you slipped on a banana peel, it's your laugh.
And so that's, I think where my humor is from.
And also I'm, I don't know, I'm like miserable and anxious and just like,
I think, yeah, it's interesting because you have a very good sense of humor and your style of comedy, like going back to the first couple of videos I saw of yours, I was like, this is a very smart person because you have to be smart to write those bits and to do them well.
I should hang out with you all the time.
I'm not trying to gas you out.
I'm just saying it shows.
And, you know, the fact that it's from a place of saying, like, I'm going to make the joke before someone else can makes a lot of sense based on how you construct your comedy.
But you're very funny.
