Kumail Nanjiani

I'm from a family of doctors, and I think they really wanted me to be a doctor. I even sort of assumed I would be a doctor.

I stay home. It's the best place to be alone. There is hardly any walk-through traffic.

I never really got into game shows. The easiest one is 'Wheel Of Fortune' because you just have to know words, and for the most part everyone knows words.

I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates.

I'm lucky that I have whatever I had that makes me have a successful career, if you will.

I hate the bad rap that people give my parents. Because they are just parents, really, at the end of the day trying to stand up for their daughter and themselves.
