Hello Mike Birbiglia, when I was thirteen-years-old, your set on a Comedy Central show which I think was called "My First Time", was, fittingly, the first stand-up comedy I ever saw. It made me huge fan of stand-up, and a few years later, you were the first comedian I ever saw live. You're still my favorite comic to this day, and one of the reasons I'm pursuing comedy while in college. Anyway, here are a few questions:

1) I heard that you're working on a movie version of "My Girlfriend's Boyfriend", is it going to be an actual sequel to "Sleepwalk with Me" (with the Matt Pandamiglio character), or will it be its own entity?

2) I'm also a big John Green fan, so you can imagine I was very excited when you were cast in "The Fault in Our Stars" movie. Were you familiar at all with John's work prior to the casting?

3) Do you find it annoying when people quote your own material to you?

Thanks for doing this AMA, thanks for doing the work you do, and thanks in general.
