There's a generation of people I think without a strong connection to family, to religion, to civic duty. They have a real disassociation from the problems of the world.

I think comedy has to come from a real place. It has to come from an honest place.

I think the great sketch shows, like 'Python' and 'Mr. Show,' they didn't stick around for very long. There's something kind of cool about that.

I feel like when you do Twitter, sometimes you just have an idea and you fire it off and don't really think too hard about the consequences of that. I think my reputation there is as a comedian and not someone to be taken seriously. But I like the idea of getting out false information and just muddying up the story and making it as confusing and, you know, schizophrenic as possible.

I think there's a fine, healthy tradition of, you know, the people on the fringes satirizing the process of Hollywood.

I think, you know, I'm German, and um, probably not very expressive in my emotions.
