More quotes by Aisha Tyler
I'm such a geek, and have always been a real nerd.
Aisha Tyler
No one wants to hear about how awesome you were people want to hear about the time you blew it. So I think the longer you do stand-up, the more comfortable you are. You stop wanting to hide your foibles and instead want to show who you are.
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.
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.
Aisha Tyler
So much of a stand-up's life is doing live radio and having to be funny and quick on the spot with these strangers, and sort of surgical in terms of how funny I can be in three minutes.
Aisha Tyler
I'm black, and black don't crack. It does droop.
Aisha Tyler
I'm just going to be the best version of me that I could possibly be and be as funny as I possibly can. I've just got to be myself and hopefully people will find me. And my audience did find me.
Aisha Tyler
Karaoke is the great equalizer.
Aisha Tyler
I was raised by a single dad, so I've always just kind of liked guys stuff. I think my dad just took me to the things he was interested in.
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 don't know if I was always an open person, but I think stand-up comics specifically have this way of running towards embarrassing things - whereas regular people tend to run away - because the embarrassing story is always going to be the really funny story.
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 don't believe in superheroes but I love Batman movies. There's a part of every person that is entertained by the idealistic, the fantastic.
Aisha Tyler
I'm my own boss and my boss is a total ass.
Aisha Tyler
I'm just myself, so I don't know that I think of myself as a nerd icon.
Aisha Tyler
TV always wants more people to be watching.
Aisha Tyler
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
Wounds turn into scars and scars make you tough.
Aisha Tyler
I always wanted to be as busy as possible so that if one job went away I'd still have plenty of other things to do.
Aisha Tyler
When I get old and slow down I want to look behind me and see all the fire and the wreckage and no stone left unturned.
Aisha Tyler
