I talk to grown-ups who are out to have a good time and they want to be spoken to in a different way. I don't want to be pandered to, so I try not to pander.

More quotes by Aisha Tyler
I take the most wrenchingly painful moments of my life, brush them off and present them for the amusement of others. Luckily for me, my childhood was torture.
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 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 think I was only attracted to drunken douches before I got married.
Aisha Tyler
I'm just myself, so I don't know that I think of myself as a nerd icon.
Aisha Tyler
I love it when I come across a word I don't know. And I would never treat my audience like they weren't smart enough to come along with me.

They always say some women like to fix people. I don't like to fix people, but you like a challenge.

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
The best advice anybody could have given me was to keep getting up over and over again.
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
I like grown up comedy.
Aisha Tyler
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 liked comedy, but didn't know it was something you could do for a living. I actually wanted to be an attorney.
Aisha Tyler
TV always wants more people to be watching.
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 grew up on the back of a motorcycle - my dad didn't have a car until I was a teenager. And then my closest friend from grade school was a guy.
Aisha Tyler
Marriage isn't a carnival ride.
Aisha Tyler
Every ethnic group has this where people within it will try and tell each other how they should be. So what I would say to other people is to just embrace who you are because you will become instantly happier.
Aisha Tyler
Sometimes the mistake I see people make is thinking that they're always going to be up, and I think that's impossible for anyone.
Aisha Tyler
When I was young I thought, 'Yeah, people don't see, they're not recognizing how funny I am, and how talented I am'. And the guys that mentored me were like, 'You just have to keep getting up'. And I look back and they were right. They were all right.
