The lesson you learned from a sexual harassment seminar was âDonât hire chicks.â Do you hate working with women?No. But they make you hire a certain number of chicks, and theyâre always the least funny on the writing staff. The reason why you know more funny dudes than funny chicks is that dudes are funnier than chicks. If my daughter has a mediocre sense of humor, Iâm just gonna tell her, âBe a staff writer for a sitcom. Because theyâll have to hire you, they canât really fire you, and you donât have to produce that much. Itâll be awesome.â
The âare women funnyâ debate has grown very contentious. Youâre not worried about reactions to this?
I donât care. When youâre picking a basketball team, youâll take the brother over the guy with the yarmulke. Why? Because youâre playing the odds. When it comes to comedy, of course thereâs Sarah Silverman, Tina Fey, Kathy Griffin â super-funny chicks. But if youâre playing the odds? No.
