And Im sure that some of you are curious how I feel about that whole situation.
Theres times Ive felt scared.
Theres times Ive felt humiliated.
Theres times Ive felt embarrassed.

And after a year or so, I just hope it was a step forward.
It moved things forward for me and made me think about a lot.
I hope I become a better person.
That whole thing made me think about every date Ive ever been on.
And I thought,Wow.
Well, thats pretty incredible.
Its made not just me but other people be more thoughtful, and thats a good thing.
And thats how I feel about it.
And I know this isnt the most hilarious way to begin a comedy show.
Well, that was pretty intense.
What else should we talk about?
Ansari does save part of his reflection for the end here, too.
In a way, I did.
That old Aziz who said, Oh, treat yo self, whatever, hes dead.
Am I gonna do another season of the show?
I dont think that way anymore.
Cause Ive realized its all ephemeral.
All that stuff, it can just go away like this.

This is our moment right now.
So you know what?
Why dont we all just take it in for just a second?
And on that, I will say good night, and thank you very, very much.
