Aziz Ansari’s Q&A with Miami New Times

Aziz Ansari performs this weekend in Miami at the South Beach Comedy Festival. Here are some excerpts from a Q&A he did with Miami New Times:

Have you ever been down here to the land of cocaine, rappers with big beards, and botox casualties?
Yes, I did some shows at the Miami Improv a few months back and it was very fun. I got REAL crunk. I stole a bunch of almonds and yogurt from Trader Joe’s. It was wild.

Now, most people recognize you from Funny People or Parks and Recreation. Is either of those characters similar to the real Aziz?
They are probably aspects of my personality that have been heightened. But, overall, I’m not as huge an idiot as either of those characters … I hope.

OK. Since you’re now a suave suit-wearing man with intimate knowledge of sensuality, give us some parting lady advice?
Go to a bar and just say, “Excuse me, you want to hear a dope story about kidney stones?” Then, you’re gold.
