Photo: Kevin Scanlon.Your hair looks good all the time. What's that about? How do you do that?
"Thank you! I blow dry then tease and spray at the root and curl around a tapered wand, using protective spray. Then hairspray the whole thing to stay. I also splurge on shampoo and conditioner. Yet I still have bad hair days sometimes no matter what. When I let it dry naturally I feel like I look like I'm in a metal band. Was that thorough enough? LMK."
What do you prefer: acting or writing?
"I like both. People always want to make me choose, but you WILL NEVER, EVER — I guess acting."
You're the queen of Twitter. What makes a good tweet?
"I like short, easy to read tweets that feel like they were dashed off in a hurry or in a fit of inspiration. I don't like super belabored tweets — they feel against the spirit of fun."

Which BuzzFeed quizzes have you taken?

If you weren't an office administrator on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, which character would you want to be on the show?

What's the funniest thing you've read about yourself on the Internet that's not true?
"Almost nothing untrue is funny due to Charna Halpern’s Truth in Comedy TM."
What's something that happened to you in real life that you later turned into a sketch?
"Nick Kroll once was telling me about his sleep problems the night before and I asked him 'Did you try telling yourself this story?' It wound up in my half hour special."
What advice would you give a budding comedienne?
