"My dad had loads of friends round, all smoking heroin and singing me Happy Birthday. I was three or four. Outside my very close-knit group of friends, socially I'm terrible. Certainty. I also can't stand it when someone calls you and then says, Wait, I need to put my headphones in. At school, I got my head stuck in a balustrade on the stairs at lunchtime."
"Enthusiastic, chaotic, bungling. To have read all of the books. Bad gigs. Shame. General puffiness and looking knackered. I don't even drink and people think I'm hungover all the time but I'm not, I'm just alive. Jack Dee, because he would hate having to do that. According to the people closest to me, I will start a sentence and then not say anything for quite some time. That I'm going to start commenting Wow under AI images I think are real. A comedian."
