Religious humor is not really my area, so I probably wouldn't do anything about that, or politics or something.
I'm pretty lucky. I don't get too many haters.
Like, Australians definitely don't walk around dressed up in blackface going, 'Ha-ha.'
When no one knows you, and you're just trying to break into stuff, it's so good because you can write whatever you want and just say it; it's just between you and the audience. There's no process or worrying about anyone else interfering with what you're doing.
I feel like I'm so normal. So normal it's boring.
I have a massive guilt thing about money.
I think my parents had a hard time dealing with me.
I didn't do very well academically; I was always in the bottom class.
I'm not really a management-type person. It doesn't suit my personality to be bossing people around.
I was sure 'Summer Heights High' would be a cult ABC thing; I had no idea it would be such a big hit.
Fans feel they know me, so they want me to be on-the-spot funny, and it's hard to fulfil their expectations.
There are bits of me in all my characters.
I'm not interested in being one of those comedians who wants to look good and be this 'cool' funny person. I don't care how weird or ugly I look.
I'm definitely attracted to the idea of people that have these big aspirations that the audience know might never happen, but they're lost in them.
I'm not a big fan of 'Jersey Shore' and those kinds of shows where people are really playing up to the cameras.
People are always nice; I never get anything mean said to me on the street.
To be honest, after all the crap that happened with 'Summer Heights High,' I was like, 'I'm not going to write anything controversial or edgy ever again; I just can't handle the blame.'
I've never been a 16-year-old girl.
I find actors a little bit too self-conscious.
If you over-think, it affects things too much; I work instinctively, like painting in a way. Think too much, and you ruin everything.
