More quotes by 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
Comedy is ugly. It's honest, it's raw.
Aisha Tyler
I really do know football.
Aisha Tyler
I visualize myself winning the Olympic Pentathlon, inventing a phone that can be controlled by brain waves, or doing the laundry. I do not actually DO these things, but I see myself doing them, and that is almost MORE satisfying, because I am also lying down.
Aisha Tyler
Pop culture hales you and wants you to fail.
Aisha Tyler
I like to be nice. I want to be a hero. I want to save people. Or just kill zombies, because they deserve it, because they're already dead and they can't feel it. They don't have feelings.
Aisha Tyler
I thought I was gonna be an attorney, so I went to Dartmouth and I was a government major and I minored in environmental policy, and I didn't do anything academically around the arts.
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
You know, it's about getting out there and having a good time. Not about worrying - all these young books for women are like I'm 29 with a closet full of Prada shoes and I can't get a date. Come on.
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'm sure I had low-level scurvy all of my childhood.
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
The best advice anybody could have given me was to keep getting up over and over again.
Aisha Tyler
Successful people just don't let failure define them or keep them from doing what they want to do. For example, I'd have people come up to me after my shows, and they'd say they want to do stand-up but are scared they're going to fail. I'd tell them, You are going to fail, and anyone who is success has powered through many, many failures.
Aisha Tyler
I am absolutely a Giants fan and I'm a Dynasty baby so I was a 49ers fan for a long time.
Aisha Tyler
I'm the kindest, most supportive friend ever, probably to my own detriment, but I hope that I am toughening up a little bit.
Aisha Tyler
I've always been a gamer, and I had a period where I was gaming at a really hardcore level.
Aisha Tyler
Marriage isn't a carnival ride.
Aisha Tyler
I liked comedy, but didn't know it was something you could do for a living. I actually wanted to be an attorney.

Pop culture is great, but it can be bad, at times.
