“If you think 'Game of Thrones' throws around some erroneous, unnecessary nudity, wait til you see 'Silicon Valley.'”

“I wish I was more industrious, but I don't necessarily have that drive.”

“I was just a bit of a loner as a young boy. And very, very sensitive. Ever the emotional young thing.”

“I had to be sick for a scene in the first season, and we used some fruit smoothies with little banana chunks. I had to put it in my mouth and spit it out. It was absolutely delicious.”

“It's not about creating 22 episodes indefinitely for as long as you can do.”

“I just love action movies. People are like, 'What comedy movies did you grow up watching?' And I'm like, 'Not many.'”

“It's like PlayStation-Xbox. I like both. So nothing against Mac, but I do use Windows.”

“As a kid, I drew comics. I had curly hair. I liked to joke, but I was kind of nervous about it at first until it was coaxed out of me.”

“I'm a Windows guy. I have been for many, many years. I play games, and it's where games run, baby.”

“Sometimes, when comedians get success, they don't do as much weird stuff as they normally do.”

“My choice growing up was the 'Star Wars' role playing game. At that time in the Nineties, they had a pretty robust pen and paper system.”

“I've spoken to people in Silicon Valley, and many times they have said to me, 'X storyline, or that thing that happened in your show - pretty much verbatim has happened to me.' And it's either identical or similar enough to be scary.”

“I laugh at stuff like Snapchat thinking it can change the world.”

“I make very basic country rustic furniture.”

“In eighth grade, when I was just the school weirdo, my drama teacher put me in a play, and we came up with a few comedy bits. And that very first reaction, for an audience of supportive middle schoolers, I put my head out and pretended I got scared by the audience, and ducked back in. They all went: 'Yeah! That's great!'”

“I had this website that, at one point, I listed myself as 'actor, writer, comedian, and fart enthusiast' just because I thought that would be a really clear joke.”

“I don't program, so I don't belong in Silicon Valley. If I did belong in Silicon Valley, I'd be there creating a revolutionary compression algorithm for billions of dollars.”

“I was always the bad student.”

“Married life is the same as dating life, except now you have a ring, and the state of California has a vested financial interest in the outcome of your marriage.”

“I'm undeniably very nerdy, but I'm trying to recognize and pursue more masculine pursuits.”
