I'm not an engineer. I did not study engineering in school. But I was a super ambitious student growing up.

My learning process has always been very idea-oriented. I never sat down with a book being like, 'OK, now I'm going to learn about transistors.' Instead I had an idea that I really liked and learned as I was trying to figure out how to build it.

Programming is a pretty tricky thing to start learning. You need to combine it with comedy to get a wider audience.

Take it from someone who's never managed to keep a New Year's resolution: making commitments is easy. Keeping them is what is hard.

And taking more money out of the private economy and having the government perform as it has poorly done with the stimulus I don't think is the right way to go.

My life motto is basically to lower your standards and expectations so you're never disappointed and never put any trust in anything, and I try to prepare for the day that I wake up, and everyone I know is like, 'LOL JK best long-running practical joke ever', so I've never really let myself freak out or get too excited about anything.

Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious.

Comedy is a way to make sense of chaos. It's a way of dealing with things that are overwhelming, that threaten you; it's a way to survive and get closer to the truth.
