But I love stand-up, and it's where I came from creatively, so it's something I never want to walk away from.
Aisha Tyler
I have one girlfriend who is dating right now - she's divorced - and she's on Tinder, so we play Tinder. I know that's not a real game, but it's my favorite thing to do.

I love to be busy and be challenged. I'm my happiest when I'm under pressure and almost overwhelmed by how much I have to get done.

Aisha Tyler
I was born in California, raised a vegetarian, and love science fiction, so don't tell me how I need to be in order to fit your standards. When I was younger, those kinds of comments bothered me, but eventually got to a point where I realized I wasn't going to change who I was.
Aisha Tyler
I like the company of guys. I have a lot of good girlfriends that I really love, but you know, most of my close friends are men.
Aisha Tyler
I love being married. I love my husband. I think married people always have that thing where they think that the grass is greener on the single side, but all my single friends are like, Trust me, you don't want to have to actually interact with these people.
Aisha Tyler
I started out being a stand up and writing my own material. That took me to Talk Soup, where I was writing and performing for TV. So everything is all the same job in my eyes, and I don't want to ever give up any part of it. I will say that stand-up is my first love it's how I got started and is in my bones.
Aisha Tyler
I want to point out, that this is not my fault that everyone's afraid of me, because I did not kill a couple people the other day.
