Zitat des Tages von Kyle Kinane:
I was raised Catholic in the Midwest, so I can't enjoy anything.
In 2007, I had on-paper success. I got to go to that Aspen comedy festival, which was pretty exclusive, I guess. Then I did Carson Daly. That was enough validation.
I still love a well-crafted joke. Twitter's been great for that.
Sometimes I realize halfway through a story, I'm like, 'Why would anyone care about this? It's uninteresting.'
I'm hardly a known name, but I don't want to go, like, 'Oh, people call me a storyteller comedian, let me just go up and just talk about my day.' I don't want that to happen.
I think I told my parents I wanted to be a writer, just so they'd kind of think I had some direction in life. It made it easier to pick out classes at college, like, 'Oh, this is writing classes, that's what I'm doing.'
I like to challenge myself not to be negative, because it's easy to take comedy to a negative place and criticize the outside world. Trying to praise something through comedy or be appreciative and making jokes about it is more challenging than cutting things down.
I try to stay away from calling people nerds or whatever, because I've got my own fetishes and interests.
Sometimes your dreams come true, and it's a real drag.
I now get to have the life I wanted when I was 18 years old. Now, I'm like, 'I can buy any skateboard I want.'
When I lived in Chicago, I didn't like it. It's nice to visit.
The exciting part about life is finding out what you can't do, because you don't find out until you try to do something and you're stopped.
I am somehow allowed by the universe to do exactly what I want to do to make a living.
