Allie Kilkenny is the fucking shit. She blogs for HuffPo, she’s a badass and a champion and she doesn’t give a fuck what anyone says about her. I give like so many fucks about what people say about me sometimes and Allie is thus a role model for me in many ways. Also, she’s super effin’ smart and stuff. And she’s married to my other pal Jamie Kilstein, who is a genuinely brilliant and genuinely kind person…a rare combination on the planet, much less in the comedy business. Allison is also genuinely brilliant and genuinely kind, but she will also punch people in the fucking face, while I feel like Jamie wouldn’t do? But it’s just that they express love differently.
Therefore, I prithee, go see the following:

Dude, who gives a shit what people say about you (I’m shocked to hear that). All that matters is that your true to yourself.
Thanks, Chris. Truer words were never spoken. (But I’m less tough than I wish I were sometimes.)
Don’t sell yourself short.
