Well people love to go dirty and stuff like that. it's funny, because even really dirty things can kind of inspire, but all things inspire really dirty improv and monologues. so then really dirty things can inspire the exact opposite. it's kind of a crapshoot.

More From Amy Poehler

Ladies like improv stilts, and i think men like improv giant cocks. but one of the great things about improv is that you get to play some roles you'd never get to play otherwise, you know, like the old italian pizza-maker who's passing on the business down to his son. you get to play it all when you improvise.
Son Italian Men
I think in the inception and creation of the characters, improv was the most important part for me, because i wanted to feel at home in those characters. i wanted to feel like i could commit to them. and so much of improv is saying yes and committing, so i think that's where the improv came in. even if i'm saying yes to the x across the room from me, or the tennis ball on a stick, i have to stay alive.
Home Character Thinking
What i don't like is when i see stuff that i know has had a lot of improv done or is playing around where there's no purpose to the scene other than to just be funny. what you don't want is funny scene, funny scene, funny scene, and now here's the epiphany scene and then the movie's over.
Purpose Done Want
I'm not offended. lenny bruce taught me that everything's funny. you can make everything funny. i don't think that assassinations are funny, i don't think you can make fun of isis, but almost everything is funny. and if we can't laugh at ourselves, who can we laugh at? so i don't mind ethnic humor. i like ethnic humor. i like dialect jokes. laughter is a very subjective thing. if it's funny to you it's funny. and a lot of things are funny to me.
Laughter Fun Thinking
The problem is that we live in an uptight country. why don't we just laugh at ourselves? we are funny. gays are funny. straights are funny. women are funny. men are funny. we are all funny, and we all do funny things. let's laugh about it.
Country Laughter Gay
I love performing. i love doing improv. it's a totally terrifying experience, but it's something that i've always felt so strongly about and that i'm kind of obsessed with. and just as an actor, it's a great exercise. it's a great playground, you know, to try things out and to work on your skills. because the mandate of improv is kind of the same as acting: it's all about your scene partner, it's all about being present and in the moment and exploring together as a team, a collaboration.
