I'm always trying to reach a transcendent point, a romantic point, but reach it in a really unconventional way, a really profane way. To get to that romantic, touching, heartbreaking place, but through a lot of acts of profanity.

In a way, a lot of my humor comes from presenting things that are dramatic or shocking and then people not having socially appropriate responses, having people denying the drama by failing to react to it, and that's a really classic form of humor.

I'm trying to make order out of chaos, trying to find some way of rationalising the horrific things that people do or the way the world is.

Trying the way we do every time we look in a mirror to figure out exactly who that person is.
